Services
Ozarks Counseling Center originally formed in Springfield, Missouri in 1952 and was called the Greene County Child Guidance Clinic.
It was the first child guidance clinic in the area and was established to treat emotional and behavioral problems of children.
A few years later, the clinic began treating the parents of the children.
By the 1960's it became known as the Greene County Guidance clinic and began serving all adults and children in need of mental health services.
In the early 1990s the name was changed to Ozarks Counseling Center to reflect the fact that we serve clients from all over SW Missouri and sometimes NW Arkansas with quality and affordable counseling.
We currently provide individual, couple, family, and group counseling sessions.
The counselor or counselors you will work with during these sessions are highly trained professionals who will discuss your issues in a compassionate, warm, and judgment-free environment.
Your counselor will gather background information from you, find out what problems you want to address and work with you to develop a plan to meet your goals for change.
Counseling can help you identify patterns of behavior, thoughts, attitudes, and feelings that cause conflict, undermine self-confidence, strain relationships or otherwise cause problems.
