Introduction

Solace Center is a comprehensive emotional health and wellness center aimed at supporting adults, children and families in living happy and healthy lives. Solace Center provides a wide range of services to empower you and your family. Like our namesake, Solace, which means to help and comfort, we strive to offer a warm and supportive environment to encourage you or your family to achieve your life goals. Counseling/Supportive Services: Solace Center provides counseling for individuals, children and adults. Couples counseling, group therapy and family counseling are also available. We understand that every person and situation is different, that is why we will cater your services to your specific needs. We utilize a variety of different modalities and have specialized training in Play Therapy, Child-Parent Psychotherapy, EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. New Mommy Services: Being a new mommy can be tough, but you don’t have to do it alone. Schedule either a home visit or an office visit, bring your baby and let’s talk to help you through this new life adjustment. Infant/Toddler Mental Health: Like adults, infants and toddlers have big emotions and sometimes need additional support to help them regulate and deal with big feelings. As parents, we can feel overwhelmed and doubt ourselves. Let us help you and your little ones re-connect and work through these harder times. With Infant/Toddler Mental Health, we will foster positive relationships and attachment between parents and their toddlers. Consultation/Supervision: We offer professional consultation and clinical supervision for those seeking hours towards licensure and/or Endorsement as an Infant-Family and Early Childhood Mental Health Specialist. At Solace Center, we understand that everyone has different needs and life situations, that is why we offer a variety of options to access services to best meet your needs. We currently see clients in person at our main office, via secured video-conferencing or even in the comfort of your own home. Our main office is located at 1470 W. Herndon Ave Suite 100 Fresno, CA 93711 Good Faith Estimate You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises Meet Our Therapists: Alejandra is a Licensed and Marriage Family therapist who has worked with individuals in Fresno County for the last 7 years.
