First Avenue Counseling Centre is a nonprofit agency dedicated to providing low-fee counseling services to San Diego families. We began in 2002, shortly after another local counseling agency had closed its doors, leaving a significant need for these services in the community we love.
In addition to offering individual, couple, and family counseling, we also offer groups for survivors of violent loss, and classes on parenting, anger management, and domestic violence.
Our services are provided at such low cost thanks to the generosity of our staff and donors. Most of our counselors work on a volunteer basis, either as part of their therapist training or out of simple dedication to our mission. (Our counselors range from therapist trainees to fully licensed marriage and family therapists; for more information visit our counselors page.)
If you are interested in any of our services, please feel free to give us a call at 619-685-0041 or use the Quick Contact form you see in the upper right-hand corner of each page on this site. We will be happy to help you get the services you need--whether with us or elsewhere, we want you to be connected with the most effective services possible.
If you are interested in volunteering at FACC, please send us an email to let us know. If you are interested in making a donation, you can either call our front desk at 619-685-0041, or make a secure online donation through our online donations center.
Thank you for visiting our site. We look forward to talking with you!
Warm regards,
First Avenue Counseling Centre
