Samaritan Center of Puget Sound

Counseling, Consultation, Mediation and Education Services

in Seattle and the Puget Sound Area

Celebrating 50 years of service ... restoring hope ... reconciling relationships ... transforming lives


Samaritan Center of Puget Sound, formerly Presbyterian Counseling Service, provides high quality, faith-integrative, affordable counseling for individuals, couples and families in 21 locations throughout the Puget Sound area. Our roots are in the Christian community, and we are committed to providing care for people from all walks of life and all faith backgrounds.

We seek to make our services as affordable as possible, which means accepting most insurance plans and, for those with limited incomes, offering fee assistance as our resources allow. We believe that healing occurs on multiple levels--mind, body, spirit and soul--and are always willing to consider with our clients the spiritual as well as psychological aspects of healing and growth.

Fund Development

The mission of Samaritan Center, from our beginning in 1960 as Presbyterian Counseling Service, has been to provide high quality, faith-integrative, affordable counseling for individuals, couples and families.

 

In order to make our services accessible to those with limited incomes, we depend on the generosity of our community -- individual donors, churches and grant resources.

 

We invite you to help us ensure that those who are unable to pay the full cost of counseling will be cared for with dignity.

Youth & Family Services

Samaritan therapists are trained and experienced in working with children, youth and their families.

We help families cope with the problems that arise in this complex world -- providing practical tools and support as they work through difficult times. Among the concerns that families deal with are school problems, disordered eating, drug and alcohol involvement, depression, anxiety and the hurt and confusion that occurs when a family goes through separation and divorce.

Samaritan also provides counseling and mental health services for at-risk and homeless youth in Seattle's University District, Downtown Seattle and and in Bellevue.
