Is there a limit to how long I can attend counseling?
Yes, we offer 12 free counseling sessions. During your time in counseling, our providers will work to determine if other programs, such as Support and Recovery groups, would be a good option for you following your counseling sessions.
Is there a waiting list for counseling?
Because we offer free counseling, there is typically a waiting list. When completing the application, we recommend listing as much availability as possible as the likeliness of being scheduled quicker increases when you have more availability. If you need to receive counseling sooner, we encourage you to reach out to others on our Referral list.

I live too far away. What do you recommend?
Unfortunately, our providers can not provide counseling outside of Virginia due to licensing. We encourage you to go to find a counselor in your area. The American Association of Christian Counselors is a wonderful resource. Click here to go to their website.
