Mental Health Counseling
Sometimes it’s what’s on the inside that keeps people out on the streets.
The Counseling Center of Union Mission provides comprehensive, community-based behavioral health care to those in need. All of our counseling staff are licensed professionals able to offer an array of high-quality services in a caring and confidential manner to meet individual and family needs.

Many of our clients have endured a lifetime of trauma, abuse, and unthinkable tragedies. These experiences create seemingly unsurmountable mental health challenges. Our mental health counseling team addresses these issues and ensures short-term problems do not inhibit long-term success and stability. By providing quality mental healthcare to Savannah neighbors experiencing homelessness and extreme poverty, we empower our clients to increase resilience, engage in the community, and access their full potential.
