Greetings! My name is Sue VanWyngarden and I am the Executive Director of what we feel is the home for hope and encouragement in the central city -- Midtown Counseling Services. I am pleased to introduce you to the suite of family psychotherapy services we are so proud to offer here in the heart of Holland, Michigan.

 

Many see Midtown as a place where, over it’s 15 years of service, no one is refused counseling regardless of ability to pay.  Yet Midtown is also a team of counselors fully licensed and certified to provide traditional family support therapy.  This team participates in all the major insurance networks for behavioral health and provides psychotherapy to assist its clients with:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Grief & Loss
  • Self Esteem
  • Anger
  • Relationship Issues
  • Addictions
  • Issues with Spirituality
  • Family Systems Issues
  • Marriage Counseling

 

Special Announcement!

Richard Talsma of Talsma Furniture to match all donations to Midtown!

"That's right, I believe in Midtown so much that Talsma Furniture will fully match any contribution made by the end of the year! "  ~Richard Talsma
