Families

Healing one person is a start. Healing a family changes everything. We offer support that brings families closer and gives everyone the tools to grow together.

Adults

Depression, anxiety, and emotional pain are just as real in adulthood. Our programs for adults and vulnerable populations offer compassionate, evidence-based care in a safe environment.

About CGRC

We've been showing up for families for 70 years.

At Child Guidance Resource Centers, we believe that mental health support shouldn't be hard to access — and that no family should have to navigate their hardest moments alone.

We work where it hurts. Whether it's a child struggling in school, a parent at their breaking point, or an adult facing depression or anxiety, our team of 200+ therapists and experts meets you with compassion, without judgment, and with a real plan forward.

We're proud to serve the Philadelphia region — because strong individuals build strong families, and strong families build strong communities.

I didn't know where to turn. CGRC gave my daughter the support she needed, and they gave our family the tools to actually help her. I wish we had found them sooner.

Featured Programs

Whatever you're facing, we have a path forward.

We offer a wide range of evidence-based programs designed to meet every member of your family where they are — from early childhood through adulthood. No challenge is too complex, and no family is too far along to find support.

CGRC Private School

A licensed, therapeutic elementary school where small classrooms, certified teachers, and on-site counselors work together to support high-need learners academically and emotionally.

Autism Services

Small, structured after-school groups led by master’s-level therapists help children and young adults with autism develop social skills, emotional regulation, and real-world confidence.

Psychiatry Services & Medication Management

Licensed child and adolescent psychiatrists provide expert diagnosis, treatment planning, and medication management in partnership with families.

Educator Training + Support

Educators deserve support too.

Teachers are often the first to notice when a child is struggling. We partner with schools and educators across the Philadelphia region to provide the training and tools they need to recognize the signs, respond with confidence, and connect students with the right care.

Our professional development programs are practical, evidence-informed, and built around the real challenges educators face every day.
