COUNSELING CENTER UPDATE

After almost 38 years, Trinity UMC will be closing the counseling center at the end of 2022. The church has decided to work with Inspirit Counseling Services instead of continuing to operate a counseling center. Inspirit provides pastoral counseling through churches in the region. We feel confident that their clinicians and staff will be caring and capable.

The number for Inspirit is: 410-433-8861, or toll-free 1- 800-427-4027. Let them know that you are from Trinity. One of the benefits of Inspirit is that they accept a broad range of insurance and payment options. 

As part of the agreement with Inspirit, in-person space will be provided at Trinity UMC. The upstairs counseling center above the church offices will no longer be used for counseling. Inspirit will also provide tele-mental health services.

The church will continue to offer scholarship funds specifically for mental health services. The G. Frank Thomas fund graciously continued to support TUMC’s ministry in providing mental health services with a $2500.00 grant for 2023.

May God’s blessings continue in your counseling ministry,

Diane Younkins, LCPC, LPC, NCC

Director and Pastoral Counselor
