Our counselors combine education, research and a sincere passion for their work to help you meet your goals and potential. Through counseling, CCAS strives to assist each client in an individual and personal way. By offering full-service counseling options, each unique challenge is met with care and consideration.
CCAS is a counselor and psychologist training center for master’s and doctoral level students. Much like physicians in residency, UMKC’s counselors and testing specialists are completing their counseling and psychology training. All counseling is strictly confidential and tailored to meet the specific needs of each client.
CCAS believes that everyone should be able to afford counseling and assessment services. Our service fees are determined using a sliding scale fee structure based on income and the number of dependents.
Since the early 1970’s, CCAS has grown to meet the needs of our community, providing counseling and assessment services to approximately 200 clients a year, including residents of Jackson, Johnson, Wyandotte, Cass, and Clay Counties.
CCAS is operated by the School of Education, Social Work and Counseling Psychology which is accredited by the American Psychological Association, the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education, and the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education.
CCAS offers counseling, testing and assessment services to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families.
