Our Goal

The Grotto Counseling Center’s first goal is to help people identify the nature of their concerns. We attempt to meet people where they are in their personal growth and assist them toward normal, healthy development. Valid mental health and healing spiritual principles are applied to give hope, to provide support and to promote positive change.

Our Mission

The Grotto Counseling Center’s mission is to provide the highest possible quality, professional mental health services, at an affordable price, in a context which embraces Christian values.

Our Commitment

The Grotto Counseling Center serves all people regardless of their faith. A careful respect for the individual’s spiritual values is combined with the use of accepted therapeutic approaches. We use the same valid counseling principles and interventions as other therapists, but in a Christian context.

Our Philosophy

People struggle with problems that are complex. They may involve the emotional, social, physical and spiritual realms of life. The Grotto Counseling Center’s commitment is to provide services designed to understand and address these issues in the context of each person’s needs.
