The Guidance Center makes a positive contribution to the local community by providing effective, accessible, and culturally relevant mental health services for children and their families ; coordinating services with allied agencies, affiliated clinics, schools, community partners, and other professionals ; and offering quality professional training in a broad range of mental health disciplines. History The Guidance Center has been providing quality mental health services since 1946. Formerly known as The Greater Long Beach Child Guidance Center, the agency was founded by a group of local public school teachers and counselors who were concerned about the mental health needs of children with behavior and learning problems in school. A relatively small clinic for many years, the agency became affiliated with the Long Beach Memorial Medical Center and Miller Children's Hospital and moved its offices to the grounds of the Medical Center. During the past 15 years, the agency enjoyed considerable growth and increased the number of programs, patients served and community-based locations significantly. Between 1995 and 2001, The Guidance Center grew from a relatively small clinic in Long Beach with a satellite office in San Pedro, to a major community mental health service provider employing more than 120 mental health professionals, support staff, administrators, and interns. Today, the Center provides services to children and families at six sites within Long Beach and its surrounding communities. Guidance Center 4335 Atlantic Avenue, CA Tel. 562-485-3095 Sitemap |
