Couples and Kids, Inc.

Making a difference in the lives of families one by one!

Couples & Kids is a non-profit, family-oriented counseling center designed to address the needs of adults and children in our community who struggle with the challenges of daily living.

We specialize in improving relationships through individual, couple, and family therapy. Counseling is provided in a confidential, family-friendly environment with an emphasis on problem solving, decision making and education. This is a cooperative, growth-centered process which gives you the tools to continue to make positive changes in your daily life long after formal therapy is over.

We are committed to providing you with quality counseling and mental health services and look forward to making a difference in your life!

One of our specialties is Play Therapy. Couples & Kids Executive Director, Norma White, is central Virginia's only licensed Registered Play Therapist. Norma has also been trained in clinical supervision at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro and is an approved clinical supervisor for practicum and internship students, as well as Counselors In Residence.
