Introducing...

Covenant Counseling Center of South Carolina

Our Mission...

Covenant Counseling Center of South Carolina was established in 1990 as a faith- based, not-for-profit community agency with a mission of providing high quality, comprehensive, and affordable professional Christian mental health services to our community...

Accomplishing the Mission...

By supporting pastors, churches, and businesses throughout the Lowcountry with a viable alternative to secular mental health services without compromising quality.

By enabling pastors and human resources directors to confidently refer cases which they feel unable to deal with effectively.

Accomplishing the mission...

By ensuring that affordable faith-based mental health services are available to all residents of our service areas.

By employing only the most highly skilled clinicians who have made a commitment to the integration of Christian principles and faith into their therapy model.

Our Vision...

It is our vision that professional faith-based mental health services should be available to all who desire them.

Inability to afford mental health services should NOT be a reason for denial of needed services! Our Mission Assistance Program provides funding for qualifying clients as long as funds are available.

Who we serve...

Our counselors provide services to individuals, couples, and families without regard to race or religious preference.

In fact, some clients have no religious preference, choosing counseling with us because they trust our commitment and they respect the competence of our staff.

Is there really a need?

You bet! Pastors, chaplains, and human resources personnel are frequently overwhelmed with counseling requests.

Many problems go far beyond spiritual issues, requiring the help of a skilled mental health professional.

Where can they turn for help?

It’s a matter of trust... Pastors and HR Directors want to be

assured, when entrusting the care of a member of their congregation or company to another professional, that they can feel good about the services received.

They can be confident that excellent care is being combined with a strong commitment to a Christian world view.

Most people, when surveyed, preferred a counselor who would be comfortable incorporating the client’s faith into therapy
