Focus

This center treats mental health conditions and co-occurring substance use. You receive collaborative, individualized treatment that addresses both issues for whole-person healing.

Westlund Guidance Clinic supports individuals who are facing emotional and behavioral challenges. They treat conditions such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and family conflict. Serving children, teens, adults, and families, their deep connections within the community ensure that everyone feel supported at every stage of their journey. Clinicians use evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused care to promote healing and emotional growth. These therapies help clients build healthy coping skills, work through difficult experiences, and improve their daily lives. Westlund’s holistic approach also connects families to vital community resources, reinforcing long-term wellness and support. Their Children’s Case Management program provides families with hands-on support tailored to each child’s needs. Case managers collaborate with schools and local organizations to create consistent, nurturing environments. By offering guidance and connection, they help children build confidence and grow stronger in the community.
