The Intercultural Counseling Connection is a referral network of mental health professionals committed to providing culturally responsive counseling and therapeutic services for asylum seekers, refugees, and other forced migrants in the greater Baltimore area.
The mission of the Intercultural Counseling Connection is to foster a referral network that links asylum seeking and refugee clients in the greater Baltimore area with mental health professionals trained in providing culturally-responsive care, and to serve as a source of professional support and growth for participating therapists.
The Connection is the only program in our area that provides trauma-informed, language-appropriate counseling at no cost for asylum seekers and other forced migrants. We do so though our growing network of dedicated and compassionate volunteer therapists, who offer pro bono services for non-insured Connection clients. Through our clinical training workshops, we help strengthen providers' skills in working with survivors of conflict-related trauma and torture, building the competencies of mental health professionals in addressing the needs of these individuals.
Counseling services through the Connection network are provided for free (pro bono) or under reimbursement through Medical Assistance (Medicaid).
There is no charge to the client.
One quick last question. Who was seeking counseling today?
