Review for Christian Counseling Center of Cumberland County, Crossville, TN, USA
The Christian Counseling Center of Cumberland County provides a vital service to persons who are struggling with life in a multitude of situations. Because of the diversity of the County Population, Director Carol Donelson and her staff find themselves, variously, ministering to wealthy retirees and some of the poorest people in Appalachia. Ms. Donelson has great expertise in many areas of counseling, and finds herself increasingly dealing with people with suicidal tendencies. She and her staff also counsel persons who are struggling because a spouse or other family member is sinking into the valley of Alzheimers. As a Stephen Ministry Leader, through her local church and other area churches Ms. Donelson helps prepare lay people for pastoral caregiving roles. The Counseling Center operates on a sliding fee scale. Because of this approach the Center is limited in its staff size, and consequently its ability to reach more people with its services. Currently the counseling staff consists of Ms. Donelson and one other counselor.
