Personal Responsive Services
Prevention, Intervention & Support Resources
The main focus for School Counselors is brief academic, social and emotional support for the school environment. School Counselors are often the first step when students are experiencing difficulty in any area of their life and we are well linked with many resources to support students and families for the longer term. If regular therapy is needed, we can help students/families get in touch with therapy resources and help manage academic load while students work through the personal issues. This section is designed to provide you access to available resources at any time. However, face to face connections and building relationships within our community is vitally important to personal development. . . as a student, teacher, parent, human!

Washtenaw County Community Mental Health (WCCMH or CMH) has been at the forefront of the Community Mental Health movement since its inception in the 1960’s. On October 1, 2015, Washtenaw County Community Support and Treatment Services (CSTS) became Washtenaw County Community Mental Health.
Our tradition of services to children and families extends back to the Child Guidance movement of the 1940’s. Throughout our history we have remained committed to excellence in services. In today’s world of changing political and financial landscapes, we hold true to our vision of providing services that lead to meaningful lives for those we serve.
We provide mental health services to adults with a severe and persistent mental illness, children with a severe emotional disturbance, and individuals with a developmental disability, residing in the county.

Individual Counseling/Therapy Organizations
These are community options that some of our families have found helpful. AAPS and Huron High School can not recommend specific Counselors or individuals working in these organizations. Finding a Therapist that "FITS" your needs is an individual search. Please know these may be fee-based organizations. Some will accept insurance. You may also contact your insurance company for a list of therapists that they cover.
