Our Mission
If you, a family member, or a friend is struggling with depression, job loss, parenting, sexual orientation, substance use, anxiety, grief, relationship issues or family conflict, we are committed to providing affordable counseling in both English and Spanish. It takes courage to confront these issues and develop new coping strategies while struggling to maintain jobs and relationships. We are here to help.
Who and Where We Serve
Our clients are people of all ages, identities, and backgrounds. No matter what you or your loved one are facing, our team of professional counselors and interns are here to help. We welcome members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and our facilities and services are accessible to those with disabilities. We have locations conveniently located in downtown Santa Cruz and Soquel, and several of our counselors provide confidential online services.
- Children may be having problems at home or in school and may be anxious, depressed, aggressive, hyperactive or engaging in self-harm or bullying. They may be going through a transition, such as a divorce, a death in the family, or are living in a difficult family situation. Our therapists work with the child and family members to learn skills and strategies that will improve mood and functioning.
- Adults and young adults may need assistance with depression, anxiety, PTSD, family transitions, school or work stresses, health issues, substance use, or complex mental health disorders. No matter how big or small the issues you’re facing seem, our therapists are here to provide you with coping strategies to tackle any of life’s struggles.
- Seniors and older adults often need support with anxiety, loss, chronic or acute illness, isolation, loneliness, alcohol and drug problems, raising grandchildren, or other stressful transitions related to aging or disability and can qualify for services through Medicare. Loneliness is an epidemic amongst older adults. We encourage you to reach out to either our Counseling or free Senior Outreach program if you or a loved senior is experiencing any of these challenges.
