Details: The business known as Allied Counseling Group was formed on December 1, 1991, with Kristin Milne-Glasser as sole proprietor, and was incorporated in Maryland in January 1999 as a limited liability corporation operating as Allied Counseling, LLC. Allied Counseling Group's principal place of business is 306 W. Patrick Street, Frederick, Maryland, with ancillary services offered in New Market. Ongoing program development has progressed with current research in the addictions and mental health field, as well as adding new services that meet public demand. In 2003, additional groups, including anger management, a certified Domestic Violence Batterers' Intervention Treatment program, and STEP parenting classes, were instituted. In addition to providing marriage and family therapy, adolescent services, and EAP services, Allied Counseling also became a resource for certified DOT/SAP services in March 2005. SMART Recovery, a non-12-Step alternative to the 12-Step model of addictions recovery, was added as a separate program in 2006. On-line and telephone counseling services were offered in early 2002 and continue to be a vital link to accessible and affordable mental health and crisis intervention. Since 1991, on-site public seminars and workshops have been offered on a variety of topics annually at no charge to participants, with additional training and consulting provided to a variety of local and state schools, colleges, businesses, and organizations. In 2004, Allied Counseling LLC was invited to participate in the local CASA Advisory Council and to provide training for CASA volunteers. In 2002, Allied Counseling was invited to participate in the Juvenile Services Task Force chaired by Honorable G. Edward Dwyer. Allied Counseling LLC was also invited to participate in the Frederick County Drug Court initiative, participating in both the training and steering committees, to implement delivery of drug court services in May 2004. Allied Counseling LLC also continues to offer internship opportunities and supervision for individuals who seek licensure and certification for entering the field of addictions treatment in Maryland.
