“Wellspring counseling is a faith-based, non-profit organization that provides outreach programs for mental health services and education in a professional, christian and holistic way in order to bring about transforming change in individuals, communities and for generations to come.”

“Counseling program ------------------- wellspring provides counseling sessions to the greater miami community and beyond using its staff of licensed therapists, registered therapists and masters level interns. The counseling sessions treat a wide range of issues such as anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, depression, marital and family difficulties, addiction and other areas of desired change. Wellspring therapists utilize a variety of clinical modalities, live telehealth sessions, and counseling services in english, spanish and portuguese. Wellspring also serves as a teaching facility providing supervision for masters' level counseling interns. Through a county funded grant, wellspring provides a trauma resolution program called bounce to youth who experienced traumatic events and exhibited post traumatic stress disorder symptoms. Wellspring received a foundation grant for bounce youth participants for follow up counseling. Wellspring's standard rates for counseling are below customary fees. Wellspring provides access to counseling for clients with financial needs through financial aid and solicited financial support through fundraising events and community-based organization grants. Clients who are able to pay for counseling through insurance billing or self-pay are encouraged to do so. Throughout the years, wellspring has increased the number of employees and invested in an electronic medical record system with greater capacity for growth in clinical volume. In 2020, wellspring's response to the pandemic included providing services via telehealth exclusively to maintain safety for employees and clients. This shift in service provision expanded wellspring's capacity to serve clients all over the state of florida. Mental health issues and travel restrictions during the pandemic prompted several states to drop licensing restrictions for therapists, so wellspring provided services to clients in other states. As well, wellspring registered in the state of georgia to accommodate florida clinicians who relocated and provide telehealth services to florida clients.”

“Education and outreach programs -------------------------------- wellspring partners with churches and other nonprofit organizations to provide mental health education in miami-dade county. In the pandemic, these events were no longer taking place after state and local restrictions for in-person gatherings. Wellspring's educational and outreach efforts continued in the production of wellspring on the air, a podcast/local radio program that addresses mental health topics with a scientific and biblical worldview. The wellspring counseling app, available in the apple store and google play, was added as a tool to provide easy and free access to educational content. As well, an online wellspring store was launched to provide another accessible place to provide digital free mental health education content.”
