Daystar Counseling Ministries

Description

Daystar believes that healing and change can be accomplished through the individual counseling process. Each client has an initial assessment and then sets up three appointments with his or her specific counselor. Our sliding scale offers a chance for people who could not normally receive professional counseling an opportunity to do so. Daystar has six female and five male counselors on staff, along with our three resident pet therapists.
