The Faulk Center for Counseling in Boca Raton, Florida, has been part of the community for decades. They offer affordable mental health services including substance use disorder (SUD) counseling. They know that recovery isn’t just about breaking free from addiction. It’s about building a new life in a place that supports healing, and Boca Raton offers that kind of environment with its peaceful neighborhoods and a strong sense of community.
Services at the Faulk Center are provided by graduate students and volunteer professionals. Licensed psychologists supervise everything. One thing I appreciate about their program is that they offer free and low cost services which makes it easier to get help.
The Faulk Center offers weekly group therapy for middle and high school students facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use and other challenges. Group sessions provide a safe space where teens can work through their challenges without judgment.
Life can throw a lot at you, and sometimes it’s hard to face it all alone. Whether it’s just you, your partner or the whole family, therapy at Faulk Center gives you a place to talk things out. Plus their therapy comes at a reduced cost, and there’s financial help if you need it.
They offer several wellness programs to support you beyond traditional therapy. What I like about the programs here are the practical tools and sense of community they offer.
One great option is the free Drop-In Mindfulness sessions that are held once a week via Zoom. Their 30 minute sessions give you the chance to practice mindfulness and meditation in a welcoming, low key setting. They’re completely free, and anyone can join.
The Senior Outreach program connects older adults with weekly phone calls from a trained clinician to reduce loneliness and offer emotional care in English, Spanish and Creole. Group sessions are also available for seniors who are staying at assisted living facilities.
This service is just one example of how the center truly focuses on people at every stage of life. I appreciate that the Faulk Center for Counseling offers unique programs like this, but also provides traditional mental health and addiction treatment options.
Our Methodology
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Sliding scale payments are based on a client's income and family size. The goal is to make treatment affordable to everyone. By taking these factors into account, addiction recovery care providers help ensure that your treatment does not become a financial burden to you or your family, eliminating one barrier to care.
Mental health rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from mental illnesses like bipolar disorder, clinical depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, and more. Mental health professionals at these facilities are trained to understand and treat mental health issues, both in individual and group settings.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a therapy modality that focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is used to establish and allow for healthy responses to thoughts and feelings (instead of unhealthy responses, like using drugs or alcohol). CBT has been proven effective for recovering addicts of all kinds, and is used to strengthen a patient's own self-awareness and ability to self-regulate. CBT allows individuals to monitor their own emotional state, become more adept at communicating with others, and manage stress without needing to engage in substance abuse.
Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a modified form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a treatment designed to help people understand and ultimately affect the relationship between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. DBT is often used for individuals who struggle with self-harm behaviors, such as self-mutilation (cutting) and suicidal thoughts, urges, or attempts. It has been proven clinically effective for those who struggle with out-of-control emotions and mental health illnesses like Borderline Personality Disorder.
Experiential therapy is a form of therapy in which clients are encouraged to surface and work through subconscious issues by engaging in real-time experiences. Experiential therapy departs from traditional talk therapy by involving the body, and having clients engage in activities, movements, and physical and emotional expression. This can involve role-play or using props (which can include other people). Experiential therapy can help people process trauma, memories, and emotion quickly, deeply, and in a lasting fashion, leading to substantial and impactful healing.

I would not use this place as a pet whisperer. The counselors are very young and don't understand. Do not use them for anything that would need to be documented. They wrote that my daughter with a comprehension disorder was not participating at the highest level in group. ...
Great service
Excellent Facility that really cares about their clients!
i love this place great place to get therapy
My individual therapist was awesome, and I loved my group therapy group because I got to talk with more people my age with the same stuff going on in their lives like me. Overall they helped me improve my mental health and made my life a little better :)
I’ve been coming to The Faulk Center for 6 years and they have transformed my life for the better. The people there are very friendly and welcoming and they offer groups and also individual counseling (both online and in person). While the center does not take insurance, they do have a sliding scale that can accommodate most people. Over these past 6 years, I’ve had a new clinician each year and some may argue that would be a disadvantage. I disagree as we have learned from each other and it’s someone who can offer a different perspective. Having different clinicians over the past 6 years has allowed me to grow and change as a person and I will always be grateful for the wonderful people at The Faulk Center. For anyone who is handicapped, the center has an elevator to make the building accessible. For anyone needing support or just need to talk to someone, this is the place to be. It is a friendly, judgement free place and you will be welcomed with open arms. I am so thankful and blessed to be a client. I can’t say it enough.
I was a client 7 years ago. My experiences have been great. The secretary Debbie was so kind and supportive when I was first getting my intake this time and has been nothing but pleasant and friendly. The staff and students are knowledgeable helpful. I’ve been a psychiatric nurse for many years so I know great practice when I see and experience it
Faulk center is a great help to the community! Debbie in reception is exceptional in her kindness and capabilities! So happy to have found the Faulk Center!
With over 28 years of experience in Mental health and multiple certifications within the field, I can candidly state that this place is the best! The professionalism, compassion, and care shown for each and every client are beyond five stars. The Faulk Center for Counseling is nothing short of exemplary. One of its best features is the outstanding clinical team. Filled with caring professionals that have clearly each sought and strive to continue building and bettering every aspect of treatment as if it is a personal passion project and legacy to each of them. I have personally experienced a few very difficult life events and relied on them for help. I hold them personally responsible for the success, wellness, and fortunate outcomes that I have experienced as a result of counting on their help. If no one has told you yet today, You matter, You are important, and You are worth every moment and effort!
