About this facility
The Center for Family Services of Palm Beach County offers mental health support for individuals and families facing challenges like depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, addiction, and parenting stress. Serving children, adolescents, and adults, the center provides outpatient care through individual, family, and group counseling, both in-person and via telehealth. Since 1961, it has remained a trusted community resource.
The center uses a client-centered, trauma-informed approach to help people build healthier lives. Therapies include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), play therapy, Triple P parenting support, and other evidence-based treatments. Counselors focus on improving coping skills, strengthening relationships, and connecting individuals to needed services that support long-term emotional and mental wellness.
Programs like the Prenatal Plus Mental Health Program offer in-home support for pregnant women at risk of poor birth outcomes. The Stop Abuse Family Empowerment (S.A.F.E.) Program provides specialized care for children and adults impacted by sexual abuse, physical abuse, domestic violence, sex trafficking, and violent crimes. These targeted services ensure that survivors and vulnerable families receive the healing support they need.
