Counseling for ALL, regardless of income or insurance, since 1981.
Counseling & Education Center (CEC) is where anyone can have the opportunity to Talk to Someone You Can Trust.
CEC is open for in-person appointments Monday through Thursday. Video therapy sessions are also available. Contact us to schedule an appointment at 970.243.9539. We look forward to meeting you.
COVID-19 Update: CEC continues to comply with the Mesa County 5-Star program. Out of respect for the health and safety of our staff and clients, we strongly request that you wear a mask in our building. We have disposable masks available if you need one. Thank you for helping us in these important efforts.
VISION STATEMENT: A future where all people can access affordable professional Counseling and Therapy services and where these services are an integral part of healthcare provision.
MISSION STATEMENT: CEC, staffed by a diverse community of dedicated caring professionals, enriches our community by providing professional, affordable counseling services to families and individuals in need.
CELEBRATING 40 YEARS! Since 1981, CEC has provided professional, compassionate, client-centered counseling to the people of our community. Because the cost of professional counseling is too often a barrier to receiving services, CEC was founded on the belief that everyone should have access to quality mental health care, and serves all individuals, regardless of income and age and with no eligibility requirements.
Nearly everyone faces challenges and difficulties in their life at some time. But sometimes, they can be overwhelming, and we feel like we are helpless. Stress over a job, anxiety caused by uncertainty over the future, loss because of bereavement, problems over addiction, or difficulties in a relationship are just some of the reasons people feel they can benefit by talking to a CEC Counselor therapist. CEC counselors are licensed mental health professionals and/or masters level psychotherapists with a wide range of therapeutic specialties.
CEC is truly the community's mental and emotional health counseling center. Our community recognizes the important work accomplished and supports our mission through referrals, grants, event support, individual donations, and volunteer assistance. Thank you, staff and donors, who made CEC possible over these past 40. years!

We hear gratitude from our clients every day . . .
"You were there for me when nobody else was."
"I can't thank you enough for everything you've done for me and my family."
"When I first came to CEC, I sat in the lobby listening to the music and
watching people interact. I felt a real sense of calm and peace...I knew this was the place for me."

One of our most generous funding partners is the Rocky Mountain Health Foundation (RMHF), which enables us to serve more Mesa County children, teens, and adults in need. RMHF serves 22 counties in western Colorado. With the mission of improving the overall health of a community, RMHF is a newly converged $38 million permanent and regional funding resource as the result of Rocky Mountain Health Plans selling to United Healthcare. The Foundation addresses some of the Western Slope's most pressing health needs, including access to health care, hunger, transportation to/from medical treatments, and integrated behavioral health.
