The Enrichment Center

The Enrichment Center The Enrichment Center provides school-based, professional counseling services to students who need it most.
(1)

We partner with local schools to provide professional counseling to students who are going through hard times and need a friend, resources, or an advocate to help them grow into the people they want to become. The mental health of our kids is one of the most important issues of today. As one teacher put it, "If we don't take care of our kids mental health needs first, you can forget about teaching them in the classroom." The struggles that kids and adolescents today are facing are more challenging and complex than ever before. The Enrichment Center program strives to provide a helping hand to these individuals when they need it most. Our mission is to passionately walk with students through seasons of struggle and to equip students with the tools, support, and confidence to create a brighter future.

Kickoff Day 2: FIELD TRIP EDITION! 🚌

A week ago tomorrow, our team had an amazing day together! The team only knew to wear their new EC shirt, closed toe shoes, and to bring a light jacket - the rest was a surprise! We loved surprising them each stop throughout the day!

From Cathedral Caverns to Stovehouse, it was a day full of laughs, impromptu movie scene reenactments, and team building!

Our Stops:

1. Cathedral Caverns State Park-Alabama - 10 AM Cave Tour
2. PaPPo’s Pizzeria & Pub Huntsville Memorial Pkwy - Lunch & Movie Trivia!
3. America's Thrift Stores - Each team bought 5 items for Day 3’s skits!
4. Stovehouse - Oscar Moon's Milkshake Shop gave each of our team members a discount! Thank you for the afternoon treat!

Only one more kickoff day left to share! Come back to see how we finished out the week!

Lights, Camera, Action! 🎬⭐️🎞️

This year’s Back to School Kickoff theme was “At the Movies”!

Day 1 of 3 - Our team of school based therapists and mental health coaches focused on school partnerships, TEC policy updates, the 2025-26 calendar, returning students/referrals, and more!

The EC team was divided into 7 micro groups, and competed against each other over the course of all 3 days. Day one’s opportunity for points was for the winner of the most creative movie poster! The movie had to be about a therapist and fit into a specific movie genre.

Then, of course, we had to end the day with concessions! 🍿🥤

It was a great day of reconnection, intentional focus on the new school year, and lots of fun!!

🎒 Back-to-school jitters are REAL! 😬

We first shared this post a few years ago, and with a new school year just around the corner, we’re bringing it back because it’s still just as relevant. 💛

If your child is feeling anxious about returning to school, you're not alone and neither are they. This post walks through what back-to-school anxiety might look like, and how you can support them with empathy and small, consistent steps.

This school year, our therapists & mental health coaches showed up in a big way— providing thousands of sessions and supporting students in over 30 schools, all at no cost to the students and their families. We couldn’t have done it without our three incredible school partners. Thank you for believing in the power of mental health support! 💛

Across both programs, our team impacted a recorded total of 3,823 students.

3,823 lives
3,823 stories

True safety isn't only defined by what is absent - it is defined by what is present. ✨

Real safety includes trust, empathy, attunement, and belonging. We feel safest not in silence, but when we are seen, heard, and valued.

You don't have to fix someone's pain to make a difference. Your steady presence, your willingness to stay connected - that is how we help others feel safe and supported. 🩵

Our Story

The Enrichment Center is a school-based counseling program providing support for students facing seasons of struggle and traumatic life crises. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit that exists to make a difference in the lives of students. We believe the mental health of young people is one of the most important issues of today. As one teacher put it, "If we don't take care of our kids’ mental health needs first, you can forget about teaching them in the classroom." The struggles that children and adolescents are facing today are more challenging and complex than ever before. The EC program strives to provide support to these individuals when they need it most. At a time when our education system is underfunded and our teachers, school counselors, and administrators are overworked, we need to provide as much support to our local schools as possible. The Enrichment Center provides licensed counselors to support the schools by walking with students through some of the more serious and delicate situations children and adolescents of today go through.

OUR MISSION is to provide excellent school-based counseling services to support students through life’s challenges.

OUR VISION is a school environment where every child has a support system and safe place to go when they face life’s challenges and struggles. We envision a dedicated, full-time counselor available to every student in our community to support them as they face life’s challenges and to walk with them through seasons of struggle. We envision a climate where emotional health is prioritized just as much as academic preparedness and physical health, and every person is equipped with the tools and resources they need to support their own mental health throughout their lives.

OUR CORE VALUES are trust, passionate investment, confidentiality, and growth. We strive to embody these core values and always keep them at the center of everything we do. Every interaction we have, whether it’s with our colleagues, with anyone we encounter working in the schools, with our students, or with people we meet in the community, we approach that interaction with an emphasis on trust, passionate investment, confidentiality, and growth.
