HHCI is a comprehensive mental health resource for the Greater Houston community and beyond. At the Hope and Healing Center & Institute (HHCI) we are reimagining mental health care. Our mission is aimed at transforming lives and restoring hope to individuals and families.
HHCI offers a variety of uniquely structured strength and skills-based services to adults with serious mental health difficulties. These services are delivered as programs that range from 8-12 months and require weekly attendance. Our therapy programs are available to persons over the age of 18 who are experiencing symptoms of serious, chronic mental illness. Services are offered to the community at no charge. We do not offer family therapy, couples counseling, or counseling for higher-functioning individuals.
Many of our services offer information and discussions about faith in the context of mental health care. Wherever a person is on their faith journey, we walk with them to help find and establish a faith community that suits their spiritual and emotional needs.
