NorthStar provides a knowledgeable and experienced team including LMHT, SW’s, Crisis Intervention Specialists, Certified Peer Support Staff, and supporting Elder Law Attorneys. There are a wide variety of valuable programs throughout King County, the issue comes from the lack of connection or communication between the programs. NorthStar reaches out to multiple programs and providers to know what is available and the requirements to qualify for each service or benefit. This allows our clients to be properly paired to the proper program that will make them the most successful.
