Have questions? Reach out to us.
Epworth Family Support Network provides free family therapy to combat serious family issues and child abuse and neglect.
Epworth Family Support Network provides counseling services by trained therapists to families who live in St. Louis City, St. Louis County, or St. Charles County with a child up to the age of 18 and no open or substantiated cases of child abuse and/or neglect. The goal of Epworth Family Support Network is to provide support to families before serious issues arise within the family unit. Through individualized family therapy and professional parenting education, families experiencing challenges can find support and learn effective techniques for ongoing family life. Family therapy sessions are held once a week for one hour either within the family’s home, community setting, or virtually, with total services lasting an average of nine months, depending on the needs of the family.
Parenting can be difficult and Epworth Family Support Network is here to help.
