RELATE Counseling Center is a nonprofit, community based mental and chemical health center headquartered in Minnetonka, Minnesota. RELATE is a leading provider in mental and chemical health services for individuals of all ages. RELATE offers a wide variety of services to individuals, couples, families, school districts, community organizations and medical partners. RELATE has been providing health care services in the western suburbs for over 40 years.

RELATE strives to be in the forefront of identifying needs in the community and providing high quality care.

To broaden the accessibility of its mental and chemical health assessments and counseling services, RELATE has staff on site each week at 19 schools in five school districts (St. Louis Park, Minnetonka, Orono Wayzata and Mound) as well as at ResourceWest (formerly Hopkins Minnetonka Family Resource Center) and South Lake Pediatrics.

RELATE is one of the few private providers in the western Twin Cities area that offers its services for free or at a reduced fee for individuals and families with inadequate insurance and financial resources. Based upon initial intake information, at least 30% of individuals and families on RELATE’s wait list are eligible for free services or reduced fees. This represents a 50% increase from previous years.

Best describing the impact of RELATE’s services are the words of our clients. For example, one mother of a teen receiving services at RELATE wrote to us saying:

“RELATE has been an absolute Godsend for my family. The therapist has been wise and easy to talk to. My daughter has improved her grades significantly, can better manage her anxiety, and is finding more health in her friendships. Our experience at RELATE has been tremendously helpful; I’m glad we sought help when we did.”

Your donation will assist RELATE in providing accessible mental and chemical health services to individuals of all ages either on-site or in one of our numerous community partner schools, organizations and medical facilities.
