About Us

Cedar Grove Counseling has served Port Angeles, WA, and the surrounding areas since 2005. Founded on the belief that lasting recovery is built on respect, accountability, and a supportive environment, we provide compassionate, evidence-based counseling backed by nearly two decades of experience.

We offer a comprehensive outpatient treatment program that supports individuals at every stage of recovery—whether beginning treatment, seeking education, preventing relapse, or maintaining long-term wellness. We also provide professional drug and alcohol testing for businesses, families, and individuals, with certified technicians ensuring accurate, confidential results that meet workplace and legal standards. In partnership with local judicial and community agencies, we deliver assessments, treatment, and progress reports for mandated programs.
