About The Women’s Center
For forty-nine years, The Women’s Center has provided mental health counseling, support, and education to the metropolitan area to help people live healthy, stable, and productive lives.
Since The Women’s Center was founded in 1974, we have grown to include services to clients of all gender identities, families, young adults, and children. We now serve over 5,000 people annually at our two locations in Virginia and Washington, DC, and in partner locations. Functioning as a teaching institution for mental health professionals, we provide one of the largest, most prestigious, and most competitive training programs in the region.
As a nonprofit organization, The Women’s Center relies on philanthropic support to offer subsidized and free care and support to people in need in the community. Mental health services funded in part by Fairfax County.
Our Mission
The mission of The Women’s Center is to significantly improve the mental health and well-being of all members of the community through counseling, education, support, and advocacy.
Our Vision
The Women’s Center will continue to be synonymous with mental well-being, and all members of the community–regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, or economic status–can turn to The Center for counseling support when facing life’s challenges and transitions, or are seeking personal or professional development. Our vision is realized because of our partners – corporate, government, nonprofit, and individuals — who work with us to reduce the stigma often associated with mental health services, by promoting the improved quality of life that these essential services bring.
