At Samaritan Center, we heal hearts, provide hope, and enhance lives with a holistic approach to mental health for all ages, whole families and the military community. Samaritan Center was founded on the belief that there is a close relationship between the mind, body, spirit and community. We provide professional counseling, integrative medicine, peer support, wellness education and skills-building workshops that are accessible and affordable in Central Texas. Many clients are uninsured or under-insured low-income families, and veterans and military families struggling with service-related trauma. Our focus on the whole family means we serve all ages - from very young children to older adults - and can truly impact entire family systems.

Samaritan Center programs include: 
•	Healthy Community: counseling for children, adults, couples and families
•	Hope for Heroes: counseling, integrative medicine, and peer support for veterans, military service members and their families
•	Integrative Medicine: alternative treatments including acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutritional counseling, Tai chi, and Pilates
•	Military Field Clinician Program: a program serving justice involved veterans with peer mentoring and counseling
•	Military Veteran Peer Network (MVPN): a statewide mental health program that provides peer support for veterans; Samaritan Center facilitates this program in Travis County
