MaineStay Youth & Family Services
For the past 50 years, MaineStay has faithfully served the Maine Township community with the mission of building healthier families by providing strength-based counseling, prevention initiatives, and comprehensive youth and educational programs that support growth, resilience, and well-being. We believe a lack of financial resources should never be a barrier to accessing services, so all our programs are either free or low-cost. We offer flexible payment options to accommodate your financial situation. Counseling services are available only to those who live in Maine Township or attend a Maine Township school. Our other programs are available to non-residents for a higher fee (space permitting). Counseling
MaineStay offers high-quality, compassionate counseling services for the whole family both in person and via telehealth. Our family therapists use a respectful, strength-based counseling approach designed to assist you in meeting your goals as quickly as possible. We work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Services are available at a reduced cost using a sliding fee scale.
