For over forty years Tempo Group, a non-profit community based counseling center, has been addressing the concerns of youth, adults and families. Tempo Group has developed prevention, education, intervention and treatment programs in all areas related to substance abuse and family issues.

We provide specialized adolescent treatment programs for teenagers who are experiencing difficulty managing their life due to substance abuse. A variety of treatment groups are available to support all clients in the agency as well.

We provide clinical services for individuals suffering from the disease of addiction. Personalized treatment plans are developed to provide clients with necessary counseling and support systems to assist them in achieving abstinence and recovery. Family and significant others are included in treatment, as they need to be educated about the nature of chemical dependency and how to support their loved ones in their effort toward recovery.

The licensed professionals at Tempo Group not only see clients in the agency; They also provide on-site prevention services to middle schools and high schools in the surrounding school districts. Tempo staff interacts with students and faculty on a daily basis, developing drug prevention and leadership programs for students. They hold discussion groups on current issues and topics of concern for adolescents, addressing identified at-risk students and managing crisis situations.

We have 24-hour availability in case of an emergency.
