Dedicated to Quality Care
Based on the philosophy that the mind, body and spirit are interconnected, our highly qualified, diverse staff of mental health professionals help individuals grow toward positive mental health. By using a team approach and drawing upon the unique talents of professionals from the counseling, theological and medical disciplines, we work together to renew the whole person: mind, body and spirit.
In addition to counseling and psychotherapy, we offer psychological testing, psychiatric consultation and training for mental health and clergy professionals as well as those interested in lay ministry.
Mission Statement
Krist Samaritan Center helps those in need throughout greater Houston to attain emotional, mental and spiritual health through quality counseling, education and professional training programs. We seek to follow the example of Jesus in ministering to All, regardless of age, ethnicity, faith or ability to pay.
Fees and Support
As one of the largest mental health providers in the Houston area, we see all individuals who come to us for care, regardless of their ability to pay. Many clients use medical insurance to cover the cost of counseling, as our counselors are eligible on a variety of insurance plans. We also offer counseling to children, adults and families on a sliding fee scale. Fee adjustments are available based on personal financial need and available funding.
Accreditation
Krist Samaritan Center is accredited as a service center and training program by The Samaritan Institute, the American Association of Pastoral Counselors and for continuing education by the American Psychological Association. Our counselors are certified or licensed as professional therapists and provide counseling in a strictly confidential setting.
“This was the strongest accreditation site visit during my tenure at the Institute. The Center’s local and national reputation for meeting and exceeding nationally recognized quality standards is richly deserved.”
— Paul Bretz,
Vice President of the Samaritan Institute
