Here's How Your Patronage Helps

When you support our Samaritan Spirit Gala, you are healing emotional wounds by providing compassionate mental healthcare to people of all ages, backgrounds, and faiths. All are welcome at Samaritan Counseling, Guidance, Consulting.

Samaritan offers spiritually-integrated psychotherapy to people struggling with emotional, relational, and spiritual pain, regardless of their ability to pay. Each year, more than 1,000 Western Pennsylvania men, women, and children experience hope, healing and life transformation at Samaritan. On behalf of those we serve, we deeply thank you for caring. Learn more about us.

Susan Young, Licensed Professional Counselor, provides counseling in addition to her duties as clinical director. Susan, like all of our therapists, also offers therapy online.
