Counseling
Center
The
Southwestern Counseling Center, established in 1986, provides
affordable counseling to the community from a holistic mental
health-care perspective. In a unique program for a New Mexico
college, the Counseling Center offers students practical experience
in general counseling, art therapy, and counseling on grief
and loss. Practicum students and interns utilize a holistic
psychology framework which includes psychotherapeutic approaches
that address the emotional, mental, multicultural and spiritual
aspects of each client.
Consistent
with our philosophical
approach, the services offered at the Southwestern Counseling
Center are based on a transformational view of human development.
The counseling center is conveniently located in the heart of
Santa Fe, serving the residents of Santa Fe and northern New
Mexico. Those who are assisted are 60% female and 40% male;
42% are minorities and over 70% of the clients are low-income.
The students help adults, children, couples, families and groups
to make positive life changes.
