Come join us on Saturday, February 8th in Mill Valley for Bay Area Community Counseling’s 2025 Annual Fundraiser! We’ll have friends, fun, wine and music with DJ Airsun playing 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s for our Battle of the Decades Fundraiser! You’ll have a great time and support a great cause! See below for photos from our 2024 80’s Party in Sausalito. We’ll be having wine tasting, a silent auction and a live auction. It’s a great opportunity to celebrate connection whether you’re celebrating Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s Day or Palintine’s Day! Bring your friends, family and colleagues. Come join us!

BACC has been providing low fee therapy since 2011 to hundreds of clients. There are so many people in need of therapy and its hard to find someone when you don’t have the financial means, especially when having needs for expertise in areas of family therapy, ADHD treatment, couples therapy, anxiety and OCD treatment, therapy for children and teens, treatment for depression, and a number of other issues. We provide services in Marin, San Francisco, the East Bay, Peninsula, South Bay and throughout the state of California. Our Bay Area community is one large community, so come help support!

We also have our Family Institute of Berkeley, which is part of BACC and provides services through BACC, as well as providing training for clinicians in family therapy, using the “one way mirror” approach with a team helping a family. This is done via Zoom, so that clinicians throughout the U.S. and world can attend trainings and develop their skills working systemically with families and couples.

BACC is raising funds to be able to provide more services to those in need. Currently, BACC provides therapy on a sliding scale, as well as those who qualify for Victim’s Compensation, Aetna Health Insurance and Carelon Health Insurance, and those with Marin Medi-Cal. With donations, we’ll be able to provide services to more clients at a lower rate, as well as contract with other counties and other insurance plans to provide more services to children, families, couples, and adults in financial need. Donations also enable us to train the next generation of therapists in effective, evidence based treatments to best help our clients!

To learn more about our director, Dr. Keith Sutton, check out a recent interview from Shrink Rap Radio. Dr. Dave had some wonderful things to say about Dr. Sutton’s work in his commentary at the end.

The 80’s Party was a big hit and the ‘85s were an amazing band! We had a lot of fun and our silent auction and live auction were big hits! We raised money to help more children, teens, families, couples and adults in financial need afford effective, evidence based therapy. Thank you all for your support!
