GFM the Synergy Center was founded in October 2002 by Valarie Cunningham, a licensed master social worker. It was her vision to strategically impact the mental health industry as a synergy center for the healing, transformation and stabilization of individuals and families through access to prevention and intervention services. GFMSC is a 501C3 faith-based organization and a leader in having staff that mirror the community it serves.

We provide services for children, adults, families, and couples, while connecting them with resources that will continue to enhance their quality of life.
