Funding Usage
This funding would allow us to recruit, train and supervise more therapists and supervisors, which would allow us to cut into the under-served population. The funding would allow us to maintain and expand our facilities to make it easier for more people to get to us for the help they need. It would allow us to reach out with advertising, to make sure that ignorance and reticence do not keep people away from the treatment they need.

Business Plan
At this time we're providing over 6700 hours of therapy each year. Our goal is to reach 15,000 the next 3 years. The latest data available says that in Orange County alone, 120,000 adults in severe psychological distress receive no treatment The rate of treatment among children and youths is lower. We all know the societal cost of this. We need to act fast to make an impact. A broad spectrum of clients come through our doors with a wide range of issues including sever depression, anxiety, marriage and relationship challenges, substance abuse, parenting issues, school difficulties, career changes and loneliness. We help individuals cope with their life situation, learn skills required to live self-sufficiently and improve their interaction with others, while decreasing their depressive symptoms, anxiety and anger. We provide several proven alternative psychotherapeutic modalities of treatment, as determined by the needs of individual clients. Services are not time limited; we provide in-depth, long term psychotherapy when needed. We offer individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, teen/adolescent therapy, child play therapy, parenting skills classes, social skills groups, woman’s support groups, sexual abuse survivors groups and anger management groups all at low fee based on the individual’s income. Living Success Center is also a training facility. Therapists are required to complete 3000 hours of internship, under a certified supervisor, before taking state licensing tests. We work with local universities to provide internships for their students and graduates. Certified supervisors are paid by the Center and provided to the interns at no cost. The supervisors ensure that all interns function in a legal and ethical way and provide the best therapy for each individual client. We provide both an individual and group supervisor for every intern, as well as quarterly trainings directly associated with therapeutic interventions, all at no cost to the intern. Though we are excited about these programs and the larger reach it gives us, it’s not enough. We are continuing to look for other opportunities to serve others and hope to approach transitional housing environments, youth shelters, senior housing, hospitals, etc. These partnerships will allow us reach more people needing our services, while remaining financially viable.

We differ as we can get people into our services within 2 weeks, while other clinics have waiting lists that are often months long, and our services have no time limit. People can be seen for as long as they feel help is needed to maintain mental stability.
