pathways counseling & Growth center

Our multidisciplinary trained staff provide opportunities for individual, couple and family counseling. We work in collaboration with other community services in helping people reach their full potential. A volunteer board of directors provides governance of the agency. Our professional staff of licensed counselors delivers services to treat people with mental illness, doing so from a holistic (body, mind, and spirit) perspective. Services are designed for clients who function well enough to attend sessions on an outpatient basis. Referrals are made for emergencies or for needs that we deem are beyond the scope of our resources. Revenue for the organization is developed through donations, contracts, fees collected, and foundation grants. Pathways is ADA accessible.
