Cumberland Counseling Centers + Richmont Graduate University Partnership

We’re thrilled to announce that starting January 2025, Cumberland Counseling Centers and Richmont Graduate University are now partnering to operate what Richmont formerly called their “Hope Centers”, combining resources to provide excellent, Christ-centered mental health care.

For any church or faith organization, we can help create or grow a mental health ministry- as even secular research increasingly recognizes the connection between spiritual health and mental health.

Through this partnership, we will:

🫱🏽‍🫲🏾Support the mental health of your congregation and community with excellence.

💪🏼Equip your church to welcome people seeking therapy who might not feel comfortable attending or entering a church otherwise.

🧠Show the love of Christ in innovative and healing ways, by meeting them right where they’re at in a therapy session.

🤝 Collaborate with local churches and faith organizations to create affordable, church-based counseling centers.

🎓 Serve as training sites for Richmont’s clinical mental health interns, enhancing their education and extending care to even more people.

As Alexandra Thompson, our Executive Director, shares: “Richmont’s mission aligns perfectly with ours: to create highly skilled therapists who are the hands and feet of Jesus. This partnership allows us to bring God’s healing power to even more people.”

Together, we are advancing God’s work of healing, restoration, and transformation in lives across the region.

Let’s shine the light of mental wellness through the local church! 💛

Wednesdays are for connection 💻💛 Our weekly team meeting is more than just an hour on Zoom—it’s where we come together as a Cumberland Counseling family. Even though we’re spread out across four locations in Metro Atlanta, this is our time to recharge, share wisdom, and stay united in our mission to bring healing and hope to those we serve.

From consulting on client cases to catching up on each other’s lives, praying together, and staying in the loop about new opportunities—we pack a lot of heart into these meetings. It’s a space where we bond, support one another, and remind ourselves why we do what we do. 🙏✨

Here’s a peek into our last Zoom call—our virtual meeting that keeps us grounded and energized to make a difference every single week. 🌱💙One very important team member is missing here, but we sure are glad that we all get to connect most of the time on these Wednesday meetings!

Periodically, our counselors & volunteers host what we call Renewal Groups. Not quite therapy groups, but pastoral counseling groups that focus on a variety of topics. 💙 This 14-week group helps individuals identify past areas of pain & places them on a pathway of forgiveness and healing. This could be your very first step in restoring your heart, or one of many steps along the way. This group will help you understand your past and the effect it has on your present life, help you become more self-aware, help you become more God-aware, provide a pathway to forgiveness and, ultimately, bring you into a closer relationship with God, yourself and others. Perfect for anyone who has been considering starting therapy, but doesn’t quite know if they are ready for a full commitment.

Hear from Vanessa:
“Every person that I have been honored to sit with has one thing in common: they are doing their best. It is so hard to be doing all that you can and somehow not get to where you truly want to be. If we must journey through life, then let’s at least get the support we need when the going gets rough.“
