Samaritan Center has been saving lives and giving hope to Central Texas families for more than 45 years. We envision a healthy and compassionate community where every individual achieves mental, physical, spiritual and social well-being. We heal hearts, provide hope, and enhance lives with a holistic approach to mental health for all ages, whole families and the military community. Since 2007, we have supported veterans and military families through our Hope for Heroes program. With 14 counselors and 2 acupuncturists, we have a unique approach to treating individuals and families.
We serve all ages and address a variety of issues including family violence, child abuse, sexual assault, stress, addiction, divorce, depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, TBI, pain, insomnia, grief, aging, relationships, career and life transitions. Integrative Medicine includes acupuncture, Tai chi, herbs and nutrition.
By combining traditional talk therapy with integrative medicine, we can treat the physical symptoms of mental health conditions that cannot be treated with talk therapy alone. Treatment methods are evidence-based and strive to empower individuals to locate strengths and resources both within themselves and within the community.
