Evergreen Adventure Therapy, LLC offers a variety of counseling services, including individual therapy, family therapy, and group therapy.  A licensed therapist can meet with you in the office, at a local park, or even on the trails.  We believe effective therapy can take place anywhere from an office to a bench by the river.

Please complete this form on the home page after clicking 'Get Started'.  Your therapist will then reach out and gather more information if needed, clarify anything, gather and confirm insurance coverage, etc.  After that, an intake will be scheduled in the office in Beaver or Robinson. The intake is similar to talk therapy intakes, but with a little more information on medical conditions/history/allergies, etc. There will be a total of three sessions (including the intake) in the office before going outside. 

If it is just a light rain, and you (the client) have appropriate rain gear and still want to meet outside, we can.  If it is thundering, lightning, or a torrential downpour, the session will be moved to the office in Beaver.

If it is safe enough to drive, you (the client) have appropriate winter gear, and still want to meet outside, we can.  If there is any chance of ice, Jax will go the day before or earlier in the day to check on the conditions.  If safety is a factor, the session will be moved to one of the office locations.
