If your mental health is getting in the way of your ability to care for yourself, your baby, or function in your job, you may benefit from a higher level of clinical treatment for a perinatal mood or anxiety disorder (PMAD). Our Day Program is intended for expecting and new moms/birthing people who are currently suffering from depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, and/or psychosis.

Medical & Psychiatric Support
La Clínica was founded in 1971 to address health barriers and create better lives for the underserved. Today, La Clínica is the first choice for providing multi-lingual, accessible full-scope health care services in the East Bay, no matter a patient’s income level or insurance status.
Nurse Support
Language is central to therapeutic work because certain memories are formed with the language used for that memory. Language contributes greatly to formation of a person's identity, memories and experiences. Bilingual/multilingual therapists when working with bilingual/multilingual clients can allow the client to move freely between the two or more languages in a therapy session to fully feel the memory that was formed in one of the languages they use.
In recognizing the need for cultural and language specific mental health services in the Bay Area and lack of multi-lingual speaking counselors, we created Multi-lingual Counseling Center to serve the needs of growing multi-lingual community. Our mission is to provide mental health services and treatment to individuals suffering from different mental health symptoms such as depression, PTSD, Bipolar, anxiety, ADHD and all other mental health Diagnosis.
