A Place of Hope, Healing, and Restoration
Safe Harbor Counseling Center is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing professional counseling from a Christian perspective at an affordable cost to individuals and families in Azle, Springtown, Weatherford, and surrounding communities where affordable and mental health services are not as accessible.
Founded in 2004, Safe Harbor was created with a simple but powerful belief: healthy individuals and families are the foundation of a stronger community.
We exist to be a place of refuge—a “safe harbor”—for those navigating life’s challenges, offering guidance, support, and hope for healing.
About
Our Mission
To provide accessible, high-quality counseling services that promote emotional, relational, and spiritual well-being, while extending grace, compassion, and truth to every person we serve.
Rooted in our Christian foundation, we seek to reflect God’s love by walking alongside individuals, couples, and families on their journey toward healing and growth.
