Community Counseling
Center is a non-profit organization that provides short-term, low-cost
counseling for individuals, couples and families who would not otherwise
be able to afford it. Most clients have no insurance and a low to moderate
income.
Our volunteer counselors see
children, adolescents, and adults of all ages with a variety of problems
including: anxiety, depression, eating disorders, marital and family issues,
parenting, gay/lesbian issues, anger, grief, phobias, stress, and transitional
issues that can be helped by short-term counseling. We do not have a walk-in
clinic for emergency situations nor address chronic mental health problems.
Sliding scale fees are based
on the clients' ability to pay, and there is a small fee for the initial
intake session. No one is denied service because of their inability to
pay. Client fees help with the agency's operating expenses.
The best way to explore counseling
with us is to contact us by phone at 543-7969.
The counselors at Community Counseling Center are state licensed, insured professionals or qualified graduate or post-graduate professionals under licensed supervision. They are marriage and
family therapists, psychologists and clinical social workers who volunteer
their time and services.
We receive many phone calls
from people seeking help with a variety of problems. If we cannot help
you with counseling, we refer you to other agencies and therapists. Using
Hotline's resource directory and our own knowledge of San Luis Obispo
County, we assist hundreds of people every year with referrals.
