The mission of the Faulk Center for Counseling is to promote emotional well-being through a variety of free and low-cost programs for counseling, therapy, and support. At the Faulk Center, we provide a warm, accepting and confidential environment where people who are dealing with life's problems are helped to make changes or to cope more effectively with things that they cannot change.
Since 1973 the Center has provided a variety of counseling services to people of all ages at its facility on Boca Rio Road and at outreach locations throughout Palm Beach and Broward counties. Mental health services are provided by graduate students pursuing master's degrees or doctoral degrees in psychology, social work or mental health counseling, as well as clinical volunteers who hold advanced degrees in a mental health field.
