Sometimes we’re quick to judge ourselves when things don’t go as planned. But what we often call “failure” is really just survival, effort, and showing up with the tools we had at the time.
Growth doesn’t come from perfection. It comes from continuing to try, learning along the way, and offering ourselves compassion when things feel hard.
Wherever you are today, let this be your reminder: you are allowed to stumble, rest, and begin again. Keep going. 🌿

💛 Is Children’s Therapy Right for My Child? 💛
If your child is feeling stressed, anxious, sad, struggling with behavior, or having a hard time adjusting to change, therapy can help. Children’s therapy provides a safe, supportive space to understand emotions, build coping skills, and strengthen resilience.
It’s especially helpful during family transitions, grief, or difficult experiences. Over time, kids often gain confidence, improve self-awareness, and build healthier connections with others. 🌿
If you’re wondering whether therapy could support your child, we’re here to help.

💛 Making Therapy More Accessible Through Insurance Options 💛
At Hope Counseling Center, one of our biggest goals is removing barriers that keep people from getting the support they deserve. That’s why we’ve worked hard to expand the insurance plans we accept, so starting therapy feels more possible, not more stressful. 🌿
Across our team, we accept a variety of plans including Medicaid (MO & AR), Medicare, Aetna, Ambetter, Healthy Blue, Home State Health, WellCare, Anthem BlueCross BlueShield (Carelon), and more, with options continuing to grow. We also offer affordable self-pay and sliding scale services for those without coverage.
Mental health care shouldn’t feel out of reach. If cost has been holding you back, we encourage you to reach out. Our team is happy to help you understand your options and take that first step toward healing. 💚
Because access matters. And so do you.

These warmer, spring-like days are a gentle reminder to step outside, breathe deep, and soak up a little sunshine. Even a few minutes of natural light can help boost your mood, increase energy, and support your mental well-being.
Let today be an invitation to move your body, feel the warmth on your face, and notice the small signs of renewal around you. Fresh air + sunlight + presence can go a long way.

💛🌹 Happy Valentine’s Day from Hope Counseling Center 🌹💛
Today is a beautiful reminder to celebrate connection — with partners, friends, family, and just as importantly, with yourself. Love isn’t only found in grand gestures. It lives in small moments of care, honest conversations, healthy boundaries, and choosing to show up for your own well-being.
Whether today feels joyful, complicated, or somewhere in between, all of it is welcome here. May you give and receive kindness, practice compassion, and remember that caring for your mental health is one of the most meaningful acts of love.
Wishing you a day filled with warmth, connection, and gentle moments of self-care. 💕

💛 Healing Is a Process, Not a Quick Fix 💛
Therapy is rarely about instant change. More often, it’s a slow and steady progression of growth. Many clients come in feeling motivated for quick results, and while that momentum matters, real, lasting change comes from showing up consistently and doing the work over time.
Sometimes progress doesn’t feel dramatic. It looks like small shifts in how you respond, tiny changes in your thinking, or gentle boundaries you didn’t set before. And often, you don’t fully notice how far you’ve come until you pause and reflect, or until life presents a moment that you realize you would have handled very differently without therapy.
Healing happens in layers. Those small adjustments add up, creating meaningful impact in ways that aren’t always obvious right away. Therapy teaches us patience, self-awareness, and resilience. And over time, those quiet changes become powerful. 🌿

💛🌉 Bridge to Hope: Support Shouldn’t Be Out of Reach 🌉💛
At Hope Counseling Center, we believe cost should never be the reason someone goes without mental health support. That’s why we created Bridge to Hope — a program designed to remove financial barriers and help people access care when they need it most.
Bridge to Hope offers five free counseling sessions for uninsured, income-eligible individuals who live or work in Southwest Missouri. It’s meant to be a starting point — a safe place to talk, feel supported, and begin healing without the added stress of financial burden.
If you’ve been putting off therapy because of cost, know this: support is available, and you deserve it. Hope starts with one conversation. 💚

Registration is open, so now’s the perfect time to sign up and secure your spot on the runway. We can’t wait to see you there!
Couples and marriage counseling doesn’t have to mean your relationship is in crisis. In fact, many couples come to therapy not because things are falling apart, but because they want to grow stronger together.
Counseling can be an opportunity to better understand one another, improve communication, and learn healthier ways to navigate challenges side by side. It’s a space to slow down, reconnect, and build skills that support long-term connection and trust.
Seeking support is not a sign of doom. It’s a sign of commitment. Choosing counseling means choosing your relationship, choosing growth, and choosing to show up for each other. 🌿

Faith Community Health (FAiTH) is a Christian faith-based charitable clinic providing medical, vision, mental health and prescription services at affordable income-based rates. Our services are available to our neighbors living or working in Ozark Mountain Country, including all of Taney and Stone counties. Sharing God’s love through whole person care is the heartbeat of what we do. It’s our mission to provide access to affordable healthcare for the under-served who live or work in our community.
Registration to demonstrate financial need is necessary for income-based assistance. Our patients pay a portion of the cost of their care, ensuring that they have a personal commitment to improving their own health. We offer classes designed to promote wellness of spirit, mind and body for our clients, helping them learn how to enjoy healthier lifestyles.
In addition to primary care, FAiTH offers a full service medication office five days a week to meet the pharmaceutical needs of our patients. Patients have access to all of their prescription needs for a simple $10 monthly administrative fee. Prescriptions may be filled at area pharmacies if patients prefer or if we are unable to supply a particular need. We do not dispense narcotics.
Same day urgent care visits are available with KwikCare for just $75 or less. Patients may be seen in person or via KwikCare Online in our clinic. Services include treatment for colds and flu, stomach viruses, allergies, strep throat, urinary tract infections, bug bites, bee stings, minor cuts and burns, strains and sprains.
Our patients also have access to vision care services that offer income-based exam fees and low, affordable prices for eye wear, saving our patients hundreds of dollars.
FaithCare is an employer-based healthcare benefit program that provides a solution to area employers for the medical and vision needs of their uninsured workforce. With monthly subscription plans beginning at $29/month for employers and $10 appointment fees for members, FaithCare is an innovative solution to offer direct primary healthcare services for uninsured employees. FaithCare helps businesses improve employee recruitment and retention, equipping them to better respond to labor pressures in a growing economy.
FAiTH is making a big impact in the lives of thousands of hardworking people and their families in our community. We serve hundreds of patients with chronic medical needs like Diabetes, COPD, high blood pressure and cardiac disease. Without our assistance, most of these patients would be unable to obtain the medicines and healthcare needed for them to remain healthy and provide for their families.
Research demonstrates that Faith Community Health creates over $600,000 annually in savings for local hospitals. FAiTH partners with Dispensary of Hope for access to pharmaceuticals for our patients. A comprehensive Dispensary of Hope study showed that charitable clinics like ours offering prescriptions to patients who otherwise could not afford them reduce inpatient admissions by more than half. Emergency department visits decrease by more than 35%, with cost savings greater than 40%. Because most of our patients have no health insurance, hospital care often creates an impossible burden for their families.
We create value. Faith Community Health saves the families of our patients millions of dollars each year while helping them improve their health. Branson area businesses benefit from a healthier workforce with less missed work days and employees who are enabled to provide superior guest services consistently. Cox Medical Center Branson is able to refer patients with limited ability to pay for services to FAiTH to ensure that their ongoing medical needs are met, reducing preventable hospital admissions and ER visits. And the impact of hundreds, perhaps thousands of patients having the resources they need to remain healthy and in the workforce, supporting their families rather than growing dependent on others, is incalculable.
Faith Community Health provides a 10 to 1 return on investment. In other words, the value we provide to our community is 10 times greater than the cost of our operations, thanks to partnerships with organizations like Dispensary of Hope, Direct Relief, AmeriCares, UMKC at MSU School of Pharmacy, the Skaggs Foundation, drug manufacturers, Ozarks Family Vision Centre and CoxHealth.
How do we do this when patient fees cover only a portion of the cost of care? We are dependent on the generous donations of businesses, churches and families who recognize the value of our work and care about the well-being of their friends and neighbors. Without you, Faith Community Health would not be able to bring hope to the more than 6,000 patients we have served. You make a huge difference in the lives of many families. Thank you for caring. May God bless you!
