Your Support Makes Therapy Possible For Everyone.

CEC is a nonprofit. Every donation helps us keep fees low, keep our doors open, and keep quality mental health care accessible in the Grand Valley regardless of ability to pay.

Healing does not happen in a vacuum.

When one person gets the support they need, it ripples outward into their family, their workplace, their neighborhood. That is not just feel-good thinking. It is how community change actually works.

1 in 5 Mesa County adults experiences a mental health condition, but most cannot afford market rates for professional therapy. CEC exists to close that gap, and donor support is what makes it possible.

Our Impact in 2025
  • 505 Grand Valley residents received care, a record high
  • 6,725 therapy sessions delivered to adults, teens, children, families, and couples
  • 120 young people ages 3 to 18 walked through our doors
  • 9 Day Average wait time from first contact to first therapy session

Reducing suicide, interrupting cycles of poverty, rewriting the script of intergenerational trauma: the work we do today is the foundation of a thriving future for the Grand Valley.

Join our Dandelion Circle.

Annual gifts give CEC the stability to plan ahead, keep our fees low, and show up for the community year-round.

Whatever your level, you are planting something that lasts.

Dandelion Wish Donors plant something permanent. Gifts of stock, bequests, and other planned giving arrangements are all ways to make a lasting investment in CEC and the future of mental health care in the Grand Valley, without affecting your finances today.
