LANCASTER, PA — Sun Point has announced new mental health initiatives aimed at making high-quality counseling services more accessible to underserved communities. This effort is spearheaded by the newly established Sun Point Foundation, which offers services through PerformCare Medicaid insurance and provides sliding-scale payment options to ensure affordability.

A central feature of Sun Point’s approach is its dedication to trauma recovery, particularly through the use of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. EMDR is an evidence-based technique acclaimed for its effectiveness in addressing trauma-related symptoms such as PTSD, anxiety, and depression. The Foundation ensures that clients receive care from clinicians who are rigorously trained in EMDR, supported by live supervision and continual skills evaluation.

Laura Morse, Founder of Sun Point, expressed the organization’s commitment to trauma-informed care: “Our trauma-informed approach and expertise in therapies like EMDR allow us to truly meet clients where they are. We aim to help people not only heal but thrive, empowering them to rebuild a sense of safety and resilience in their lives.”

Distinctively, Sun Point invests in recruiting top mental health professionals and equips them with a comprehensive training regimen. This includes live observation of clinical sessions to maintain high standards of care. Clinicians also engage in the Foundation’s Certification in Couples, Sex, and Trauma Therapy (CSATT) program, fostering ongoing professional growth and advanced therapeutic skills.

Sun Point’s Leadership Committee plays a crucial role in ensuring the success of these initiatives by collaborating with community partners and refining therapeutic practices based on data-driven insights. Outside clinical experts are involved in reviewing the therapeutic models to guarantee their effectiveness.

“Our mission has always been to raise the bar for accessible mental health care,” Morse emphasized. “By requiring live observation and comprehensive training, we ensure every client receives skilled, compassionate, and personalized support that fosters real progress. We are excited to see the impact of these initiatives as we work to improve lives across our community.”

Sun Point is committed to not only advancing mental health care accessibility but also enhancing the quality of care through its innovative training and therapeutic practices.
