MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE COUNSELING Our Mental Health Counseling program provides individual, couples and group therapy for persons living with or affected by HIV/AIDS and coping with or adjusting to the diagnosis.

This programming is available without cost to participants in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties' Ryan White Part A program.
The Substance Abuse counseling program provides intensive counseling for both substance abuse and HIV-related problems. Clients are taught how the use of substances such as alcohol and drugs placed them at greater risk and interfere with the effectiveness of HIV treatment. Most people we see may benefit from both mental health and substance abuse counseling which are woven together in a seamless care delivery program that meets our clients' needs.

Qualifying for assistance from Florida's program usually depends on the severity of your condition and financial circumstance. Read our full guide to Florida's program.
A community counseling agency is a group therapy practice that offers affordable mental health services. Most are independent non-profit agencies, state agencies, or publicly-funded agencies. A few may restrict who is eligible for services, so it is a good idea to check when you call.
Community counseling agencies are generally more affordable than other therapy providers, but how much more affordable they are will depend on whether you qualify for a discount or sliding scale fee (or if they accept your insurance). Many, but not all, have a policy that they won't turn away anyone due to inability to pay. You should ask about their fees when you first call.
Expect to talk to kind people who want to help you find the care you need. Most community agencies strive to connect you with a live person within 24 hours, if not immediately. If you're asked to hold or leave a message, don't give up; just leave a message and wait. You should hear back pretty quickly.
Most agencies try to set up an initial assessment appointment within a week (some do within 24 hours), though the waitlist to start therapy is usually longer—about a few weeks on average. If you're not eligible or if the agency is not right for you, it's usually still worth it to call or drop in, because staff are knowledgeable about local options and can often refer you to one.
