We are offering screening for children (4+), adults, and couples for intake assignment. If you have been impacted by COVID, we offer a special invitation to you or your family as WellSpring Clinic offers a community response through the recovery process. Face-to-face counseling and limited Telemental health services are available. Laramie residents are urged to take advantage of in-person services!

Why should I seek support?
Reasons to seek counseling related to the impacts of COVID may include worsened anxiety (generalized, social, health), depression, or other mental health symptoms; experiences of loss/grief, financial hardship, unemployment, housing problems, or food insecurity; some families have experienced difficulties in education, relationship strain, or domestic violence. If you or your child has experienced any of these, please reach out to schedule a screening. Help is available!
