Our staff, as well as our volunteer board of directors, are thoughtful, caring people, committed to putting kids first during a challenging time in their lives. If you have questions about the Center, take a look at our Frequently Asked Questions, or contact us directly.

Counseling and Therapy

Dr Gloria K Vanderhorst

You are looking for the best possible experience when you decide to hire a mental health professional. The success of any psychological intervention is an outgrowth of the relationship. When we begin, I want you to understand how my 30+ years of experience have shaped my approach. My work with others has taught me that change is possible at any age. In my early work with children, I learned that our brains are creative as well as vast store houses of early experiences. From early experiences of bonding, relating to others and reacting to circumstances, we lay down reaction pathways that stay with us as we grow. In this way, the past is always an important part of the present, The key to change is appreciating that our brains enjoy neuroplasticity that allows us change at any stage of life.
