Austin Child Guidance Center

Austin Child Guidance Center Austin Child Guidance Center (ACGC) is a nonprofit that provides accessible, high-quality mental health services to children and their families to empower them to thrive in childhood and beyond.

We provide a variety of mental health services to support children and their families all across Central Texas. They include Individual and Family Therapy, Group Therapy, Psychological Assessments, and Caregiver Workshops. Our clinical services are offered in English and Spanish and provided both in-person and via tele-therapy.

As part of our effort to serve all families, especially those with

 financial needs, ACGC offers a sliding fee scale. We consider circumstances such as household income and family size and regular/standard living expenses to calculate the percentage of service fees qualified clients will be responsible for paying.

ACGC offers FREE therapy services for victims of crimes. We are also offering FREE support for children and families impacted by the July 4th Central Texas floods.

Terry’s story is a reminder of how early mental health support can change the course of a child’s life. With guidance, care, and a safe environment, she was able to build trust, communicate her feelings, and thrive socially and emotionally.

After Mental Health Awareness Month, we invite you to continue this mission with us beyond May by honoring a loved one impacted by mental health through a donation to ACGC. Your support helps provide accessible mental health services, resources, and care to youth and families in our community, creating more stories of healing and growth like Terry’s. 💚
