Our Story: A Beacon of Hope in Las Vegas
Founded in 2017 by Karen Anderson, Las Vegas Counseling Center was initially established as a training hub for upcoming therapists. However, our mission quickly evolved in response to the community's needs. In the aftermath of the Route 91 mass shooting, we extended free services to those affected in the Las Vegas Valley, demonstrating our genuine commitment to the community's well-being. As we navigated the challenges of the global pandemic, we transitioned seamlessly to online platforms to maintain continuity in our services. Today, we are a trusted space for many in Las Vegas, providing consistent, professional counseling and unwavering support.
