At the Caring Center of Wichita, we provide outpatient counseling services. We’ve developed a supportive environment where you can talk freely. You’ll find we integrate mental health treatments into all our customized plans — including patients getting help for substance abuse.
Group and individual sessions are available based on your needs. You will be seen by our therapists who also will develop your treatment plan. Our staff is committed to you because you are our mission.
We believe in the inherent dignity and worth of every person — including you. Where you are at in your recovery process is where we will begin.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we've upped our virtual game. We conduct our group meetings online and hold individual counseling sessions either by phone or online. Plus in-person services are coming back as we navigate through this pandemic. #weareinittogether
