Services Offered
Pre-Marital / Pre-Marriage Counseling - Trinity Counseling helps couples build a strong foundation before they enter into marriage through pre-marital counseling. We help couples gain a more realistic understanding of marriage, understand their relationships with one another and with God, improve communication, and solve problems.
Marriage & Couples Counseling - Our marriage and couples counseling helps couples work together to resolve issues affecting their relationships with one another. We recommend marriage and couples counseling for couples in crisis as well as those who want to build deeper relationships. Using a combination of online assessments, in-person counseling sessions, and prayer, we help equip couples with techniques to improve communication, resolve conflict, rebuild trust, and give and receive love.
Family Counseling - Children often lack the capacity to express themselves well which can make them feel irritated and angry. In turn, this can manifest in inappropriate or defiant behavior. Trinity Counseling helps children learn how to express what's inside them. We use a variety of age-appropriate techniques such as games and role play to help children express themselves in a healthier manner. We also educate parents, helping them to better understand and communicate with their children.
Relationship Development Counseling - Relationship development counseling is designed for individuals seeking guidance in their relationships. Whether an individual is considering breaking up or wants to prepare for the next relationship, we help our clients understand themselves and their roles in previous or current relationships as well as grow, learn, and prepare themselves for healthier relationships.
Infidelity Counseling - Infidelity counseling often involves recovering from an affair as well as solving marital issues that may have occurred before a partner has been unfaithful. In addition to exploring marital issues, Trinity Counseling helps clients work through their feelings of anger, betrayal, shame, doubt, inadequacy, insecurity, and loss as well as provide techniques that can be used to forgive and rebuild trust. Anger Management Counseling - Trinity Counseling helps clients understand themselves better along with the underlying causes of angry or impulsive outbursts. After exploring triggers, we teach anger management and impulse control exercises such as relaxation and breathing exercises.
Depression & Anxiety Counseling - Trinity Counseling provides a safe, God-centered counseling environment where we help clients explore the possible triggers such as traumatic or suppressed childhood memories.
Trauma & Abuse Counseling - We provide a safe, healthy, environment to explore traumatic memories in a guided, progressive way. Various techniques may be used including cognitive behavioral therapy and desensitization to help clients resolve their symptoms in a healthy manner.
Inner Healing - The goal of inner healing counseling is to heal beliefs that may have been skewed by traumatic events and build a closer relationship with God.
Self Esteem Counseling - Using a healthy, adaptive approach, Trinity Counseling helps clients understand the causes of their self esteem issues, how self esteem relates to current experiences such as at work or in relationships, and begin to see themselves in a more positive way.
Grief & Loss Counseling - Whether grieving the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or even a pet, Trinity Counseling helps clients work through the grieving process.

A community counseling agency is a group therapy practice that offers affordable mental health services. Most are independent non-profit agencies, state agencies, or publicly-funded agencies. A few may restrict who is eligible for services, so it is a good idea to check when you call.
Community counseling agencies are generally more affordable than other therapy providers, but how much more affordable they are will depend on whether you qualify for a discount or sliding scale fee (or if they accept your insurance). Many, but not all, have a policy that they won't turn away anyone due to inability to pay. You should ask about their fees when you first call.
Expect to talk to kind people who want to help you find the care you need. Most community agencies strive to connect you with a live person within 24 hours, if not immediately. If you're asked to hold or leave a message, don't give up; just leave a message and wait. You should hear back pretty quickly.
Most agencies try to set up an initial assessment appointment within a week (some do within 24 hours), though the waitlist to start therapy is usually longer—about a few weeks on average. If you're not eligible or if the agency is not right for you, it's usually still worth it to call or drop in, because staff are knowledgeable about local options and can often refer you to one.
