Since the start of this year, Samaritan has been averaging about 1,200 counseling sessions per month. Outside of our clinical work, Samaritan Consulting Group has completed three executive searches for local nonprofits and organizations, as well as continuing training, coaching and other consultation work.
To meet these increasing needs, we have welcomed new therapists, and staff and consultants. We are so excited to enter into our 35th year of service with all of our team members!
