Erikson’s Center for Children and Families (CCF)
We are no longer taking on new clients.
Center for Children and Families Closure
After more than 15 years of providing comprehensive assessments and mental health counseling for very young children and their families, Erikson Institute’s Center for Children and Families (CCF) will close all its locations effective June 30, 2025. The Center is not accepting new clients or inquiries about services.
This very difficult decision was made after extensive deliberation by Erikson leadership as they carefully considered organizational priorities in our new strategic plan. CCF clinicians have helped hundreds of families, and their legacy shines on in the lives they transformed.
Client records are kept until the children who received CCF services turn 18 years old. To request client records, please fill out the request form.
