It’s easy to select the counseling method that’s right for you

1. Choose Traditional Counseling, for help with several issues, probably over a period of time.

We’ll assign a Counselor whose experience best fits your needs. You meet face-to-face (and communicate by telephone or e-mail) whenever and wherever it’s convenient and for as long as we’re needed. We may add a second counselor to bring special experience to bear.

To request Traditional Counseling, complete the brief Request Counseling form.  This form captures information about the type of business you're in or wish to start and how to contact you. VERY IMPORTANT -> Use the text area at the bottom of the form to include a thorough description of your business and be as specific as possible about the counseling you seek, so we can assigned an appropriate Counselor.  We assign Counselors every Friday and you should hear from your Counselor only a few days after that.

If your need is more urgent, please telephone our office and find out when your counselor is expected to be assigned. If you need help sooner, just tell us and we’ll speed up the process.

2. Choose Walk-in or Telephone Counseling, if you have just a question or two or don’t know how to proceed or have an extremely urgent problem.

For on-the-spot assistance, telephone or stop by either of our staffed offices at the hours shown below. A Counselor on duty will be able to help with basic questions and process issues but may not have the expertise you need long term. If possible, call ahead to confirm your visit..
