Being a teen is hard. We help them get through it.

Hurting youth often aren't hurting alone. The people who love them are hurting as well. We help families heal together and establishish healthy behaviors and relationships. 

Rawhide’s community and school-based youth counseling provides a safe space for young men and women to talk about how they feel without fear of judgment. They can be themselves, become more confident, and start to build the tools they need to think, act and communicate in healthy ways.

Licensed, Trauma-Informed Therapists

Healing often begins with finding the right person to listen. Rawhide therapists approach young people in a way that builds trust and establishes a relationship.
