Community Guidance Center

About Community Guidance Center

Community Guidance Center is a nonprofit mental and behavioral health provider with an office in DuBois, Pennsylvania, and additional locations across Indiana, Clearfield, Punxsutawney, and Greensburg. They are certified in the Sanctuary Model for trauma-informed care, and that approach runs through their counseling for drug and alcohol use disorders, gambling problems, and a wide range of mental health conditions. Care is delivered mainly through outpatient therapy and psychiatric services, with partial hospitalization available for adults and for children and adolescents facing more serious mental health needs. No one is turned away for inability to pay; they accept Medicaid, Medicare, and CHIP and offer a sliding fee scale based on household size and income.

Their substance use programs combine trauma-informed psychotherapy with positive reinforcement, and new clients begin with a psychosocial evaluation that helps match them to the right services. Psychiatric evaluation and medication management are available for people dealing with co-occurring mental health concerns, along with individual, couples, family, and group therapy focused on coping skills and managing emotions and behavior. Adults and teens struggling with gambling can receive dedicated outpatient counseling, while children and adolescents can get drug and alcohol counseling right in their schools. Families may also benefit from in-home family-based therapy, case management, and a law enforcement liaison who connects people involved with the justice system to treatment and community resources.
