Client Testimonials
“One of the most important aspects of the Samaritan Counseling Center for my family and I was that it was a Christian counseling service. At the end of sessions, we were asked to join in a prayer. This aspect pulled us together and focused us on what our goals were with the grace of God. Although some time has passed, I often think back to what we learned from each other in sessions and apply it to a current situation. It also helped us to understand and have compassion for what others are or may be facing.”

“I believe I was one of the first clients at the little house on the St. Mark’s campus at 70th and Vine. It was a sanctuary when I was faced with several family problems. There is no doubt in my mind that my life has been greatly enhanced, with many hurts healed, because of the Samaritan Center.
I pray that others will be able to experience healing at the Center for many years to come."
Former Client
“After leaving a longtime relationship, I was in a very hard place – I felt betrayed, scared and worried. My counselor listened while I cried. She led me through selected Bible readings and journaling which help me define and strengthen my faith. Her encouragement empowered me to make new goals and begin a new life.”
Former Client
“I have used the Samaritan Center mostly in receiving help with having a child with a disability. I have experienced the depth of depression when I saw my child’s struggles over the past 40 years against cruel discrimination. Born totally deaf, private schools, learned to talk, graduated with honors from high school and college – still not enough for society. Doing all we could, and all that the child could do, left emotional, mental, physical and spiritual scars.
We have learned with the help of Samaritan counselors to turn those scars into stars.”
