About The Refuge Center for Counseling
The Refuge Center for Counseling opened in December 2005 as the vision of its founders Amy Alexander and Jennifer Gillett. Amy and Jennifer had discovered that there were few opportunities for affordable counseling in the area, as many local therapists charge $150 – $250+ per session. They wanted to offer therapy to those who could not afford those fees, so they created a sliding-scale fee structure that ranges from $25 – $120 per session and is based on each individual’s income level.
Your gifts provided transformation through counseling during a year of unprecedented growth.

Building Refuge
We are in Phase Two of the Capital Campaign with a goal to raise $2.2 million by the end of 2022. With the demand for our services at an all-time high, it is imperative that we build our larger, more permanent home.
We are grateful for the support of these organizations and foundations in 20-21
