Our HistoryThree young Marriage and Family counselors and one Psychologist set out to create their own center, with a comfortable, peaceful environment and the administrative control to ensure a great opportunity for therapists and a healing environment for our clients. We opened our doors in Monrovia at the corner of Foothill and Violet in the summer of 1977 and a new counseling center was born. But the name was a few weeks in the making. Each of us believed strongly in the creative process, although we carried it forward in unique ways. Walking our talk, we thought and meditated about our own individual preferences for a group name and then committed it to group processing until we arrived at a consensus choice. The name turned into a statement about the nature of change, healing, growth and transformation – L.I.F.E. Counseling Group. At different times in our development we have had ancillary services, such as various kinds of body work, such as acupressure, therapeutic massage and Reichian therapy, and an outplacement drug and alcohol program. Now we make referrals to people and organizations we know in the community that provide these services. We had L.I.F.E. Bookstore for a few years too. We are very happy to give the shipping and handling over to the fastest growing bookstore in the world, Amazon.com. You can connect with them through our site and if you purchase something, a small portion of your payment comes back to us. We will donate 100% of these proceeds to our charities.
