Mission

Children counseling: HOME is a faith-based provider of mental health and learning services for children and their families without regard to color, race, gender, religion, or socio-economic status. All are welcome! We provide quality mental health care to children 3 years old through adolescence and their families. Although most clients are children and their families, we also provide marriage counseling and individual adult therapy. We are passionate about providing quality mental health services to help strengthen the family unit instead of dividing families due to sometimes unbearable struggles. Part of our mission is to provide scholarships for those who have no health insurance or deductibles and co-pays so high, it would be impossible for those children, families, and individuals to receive the help they need. There are also academic needs among children who also struggle with emotional, mental, and behavioral health issues. HOME strives to meet those needs by providing tutoring.
