COVID-19 Update
We appreciate the trust you have placed in LSS in support of your health. We care about you, our staff and the greater community. We are taking every precaution to minimize exposure to COVID-19 while continuing services that help you maintain strong mental health and well-being.
We currently offer counseling appointments in-person and via Telehealth. If you are feeling unwell or are unable to make it to an in-person appointment, Telehealth is a great way to access services from where you are.
Contact us or your local LSS Behavioral Health office to see what options are available in your area. We will work with you to determine service delivery that best matches your current needs.
