Youth and Family Services

The Samaritan Counseling Center is a not-for-profit interfaith counseling center committed to providing professional counseling, psychotherapy, and educational service which affirms the spiritual dimension of life without regard to one's ethnic origin, economic status, age or religious affiliation. w We believe that a well-balanced life includes emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. Samaritan counselors consider the medical needs, the psychological dimension and the religious or spiritual beliefs of each individual. Our counselors are people of faith who honor each person's spiritual journey. We are trained to integrate the resources of faith and the behavioral sciences in counseling. We accept people where they are and walk with them on a therapeutic journey to where they long to be.
