The Refuge Center for Counseling

The Refuge Center for Counseling We exist to offer excellent, accessible, and affordable mental and emotional healthcare services.

The vision of The Refuge Center is to make sure that every individual and family had the opportunity to seek therapeutic resources, regardless of income level. There are few opportunities for affordable counseling in the area, as many local therapists charge $90-$150 per session. The Refuge Center offers therapy to those who can not afford these fees and bases their fees on a sliding-scale based on income that ranges from $25-$125.

Your brain has the ability to learn, adapt, and heal — and Neurofeedback helps it do exactly that. This advanced intervention trains the brain to operate at its highest potential and has been shown to benefit all ages. Many clients notice enhanced brain functioning and symptom reduction within just 20 sessions. From anxiety and ADHD to sleep issues and PTSD, Neurofeedback supports a wide range of mental health needs — and it’s available on a sliding scale. Ask us how to get started. 🧠

We were so honored to present the Hope Grows Award to this year.

A clinical psychologist, New York Times bestselling author, and trusted voice in leadership and mental health, Dr. Cloud has impacted millions through his work—including books like Boundaries and decades of guiding individuals, leaders, and organizations toward wholeness.

In his acceptance, he shared something powerful—he wouldn’t be where he is today if a therapist hadn’t made care accessible when he needed it most.

That’s the heart behind everything we do at Refuge.

We exist to be the bridge—between those who need help and the healing they deserve, regardless of what they can afford.

Because access changes lives. And sometimes, it changes everything.

Our Story

The vision of The Refuge Center for Counseling, located in Franklin, TN, is to make sure that every individual and family had the opportunity to seek therapeutic resources, regardless of income level.

There are few opportunities for affordable counseling in Middle Tennessee, as many local therapists charge $100-$170 per session. The Refuge Center offers therapy to those who can not afford these fees and bases their fees on a sliding-scale based on income that ranges from $25-$110.

In 2017 alone, we served 2,783 clients in over 18,300 sessions. In October 2017, we provided our 100,0o0th counseling session since opening in 2005.

We firmly believe that no matter who you are, no matter what you have done, no matter what has been done to you, no matter how much your income is or where you live, when you come to The Refuge Center you deserve to have the most excellent care possible with maximum opportunity for healing.
