Free & Anonymous Counseling

We are happy to report that thanks to you, we have met the $25,000 match challenge for 2025 gifts from new donors and increases in donations from 2024. It took more than 100 donations to achieve our goal. THANK YOU! Generous people like you are the reason Walk-In is still here providing free, no-appointment, anonymous mental health and crisis counseling every weekday -- since 1969. As you know, every small donation helps. Our tiny staff leverages the skill and dedication of over 100 volunteer professionals who provide free, no-appointment, anonymous counseling every weekday. In 2024, nearly 1,700 people received counseling at Walk-In. Clients often come because they have no or poor insurance, need anonymity, or can’t wait weeks for an appointment.

Being able to walk in was crucial for “Irene,” who came to us recently after a painful divorce. Trying to care for two children in a new city, she was anxious, sleep-deprived, and barely holding things together. At Walk-In, a skilled and caring counselor listened deeply to her story and helped her think about her next steps. Irene left feeling more hopeful and less overwhelmed.

Thanks to you, our community, we can help people like Irene every day. We are always gratefully accepting donations by check, stock gift, donor-advised fund, or  online.
