Quality Care at Minimal Cost
At our six public counseling clinics throughout the Bay Area, CIIS students provide in-person and virtual psychotherapy to qualified clients under the supervision of faculty.
The Psychological Services Center is relocating to 1449 Mission St. and will begin operations at the new location starting in late August. This move is part of the opening of our new CIIS Integral Center, which will be launching soon. We are excited to welcome clients at this newly renovated, easily accessible location.
