We offer a wide range of counseling services tailored to meet the diverse needs of our clients, including individual therapy, couples counseling, family therapy, and child and teen counseling. Our experienced counselors specialize in various areas, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, bipolar disorder, and more...

Counseling can be beneficial for anyone who is experiencing emotional distress, struggling with life transitions, or seeking personal growth and self-improvement. If you're unsure whether counseling is right for you, we encourage you to schedule a consultation with one of our licensed and experienced counselors. During the consultation, we'll discuss your concerns and goals to determine the best course of action for your mental health and wellbeing.

At Foundations Counseling LLC, we are committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming environment for all regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, ability, or socioeconomic status. We strive to provide culturally competent care that respects and affirms the identities and experiences of each client. Our team of counselors undergoes regular training and education on issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion to ensure that we can effectively support clients from diverse backgrounds. We welcome feedback from clients on how we can continue to improve our services and foster a more inclusive practice.

Counseling sessions are confidential and non-judgmental spaces where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with a licensed, trained professional. Your counselor will work collaboratively with you to identify goals, develop coping strategies, and explore solutions to your challenges. Sessions may involve talking, reflection, skill-building exercises, and homework assignments tailored to your individual needs.

The duration of counseling services varies depending on the individual's needs and goals. Some clients may benefit from short-term counseling focused on addressing specific issues, while others may require longer-term therapy for more complex or ongoing concerns. Your counselor will work with you to develop a treatment plan that meets your needs and fits your schedule.

Yes, we accept insurance from a variety of networks including Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, South Dakota Medicaid, Health Partners, and more. We recommend double checking if your provider is in network by viewing Our Team. Please contact our office and your insurance network to verify if a specific provider is in network with your insurance company and discuss payment options.

Many of our clients choose to self-pay, or seek out-of-network reimbursement. To help facilitate this, we accept credit cards as well as HSA cards. We can often submit a courtesy claim as an out of network provider on your behalf. If there is any reimbursement from your insurance company, they will pay you directly. We can also provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement from an Out-of-Network Provider. Please contact our office to discuss each provider's private pay rate, payment options, and find a solution that works for you.
