Our Mission

At The Center for Professional Counseling, our mission is to provide accessible, affordable therapy in California for individuals, couples, and families. We are dedicated to delivering professional counseling services that help people build healthy relationships and more meaningful lives. Our team also supports the next generation of counselors by training students and interns pursuing LMFT, LPCC, and LCSW licensure.

Our Vision

Building on nearly 50 years of service, our vision is to remain a trusted provider of community-based mental health support in California. We are committed to flexible and culturally competent counseling practices that meet the evolving needs of the community, while continuing our legacy of excellence in therapist education and training.

Our Approach

We take a strengths-based, collaborative approach to therapy, empowering individuals and families to access the internal and external resources they need to thrive. Guided by evidence-based methods — including psychodynamic, systems, and solution-focused techniques — our therapists blend clinical expertise with compassion, tailoring care to each person’s journey.
