Mark those calendars — our sweet night out is coming up soon! 🍦🍔🍹

On Wednesday, August 13th, you can find us at Hangry Bear Creamery in Kennett Square for a fun and casual fundraising night! We’ll be there hanging out, and we’d love for you to join us.

Hangry Bear isn’t just about incredible ice cream (though it’s worth coming for that alone)—they’ve got a dinner menu, cocktails, and plenty of options for both kids and adults. Whether you’re in the mood for burgers, a sandwich, or a sweet treat to finish the day, this is your excuse to skip cooking and enjoy a night out for a good cause.

Some of our staff will be around to say hi and share a little about our mission, but really, it’s all about relaxing, connecting, and enjoying great food and company.

📍 Hangry Bear Creamery – Kennett Square
📆 Wednesday, August 13th
⏰ 5-8pm – come whenever works for you!

Bring the family, bring a friend—or just bring your appetite. Every bite helps support affordable mental health care in our community 💙

You might not be able to make our our vision statement on the the tablecloth cover, but it reads, "Transforming Lives, Restoring Families, and Building Stronger Communities." That's why when our friends at Oxford Area Chamber of Commerce asked us if we'd join them for movies in the park this past Friday, as Inside Out characters, of course we say yes (you'll notice, we have no "shame". Lol!)
We love being our in our community and reminding people that sometimes feeling all the feels is ok. And, when you need a little extra help, we're here too :-)

Thanks for a great evening! 🫶

It’s a wonderful way to introduce friends, family, or colleagues to our mission in a setting full of inspiration, community, and purpose.

Your support helps transform lives, restore hope, and ensure that no one has to walk through their mental health journey alone.

We’re incredibly grateful to Beiler-Campbell Realtors for their generous donation of $17,600—raised through their annual charity golf tournament! ⛳️💛

We were honored to be one of three local organizations selected to receive these proceeds, alongside the amazing teams at New Hope Counseling Center (New Hope Community Closet) and LCH Health and Community Services —all working to make mental health care more accessible in our communities.

At New London Counseling Center, we say it often because it’s true: we can’t do this work alone. Thank you, Beiler-Campbell, for your belief in our mission and your investment in the well-being of those we serve. Together we are transforming lives, restoring families and building stronger communities. 🫶

📣 Exciting News!
We’re incredibly honored to share that New London Counseling Center has received a generous grant from The Cigna Group Foundation for the 2nd year!

This gift will directly support our youth outreach programs and provide crucial Care Subsidy funding for children and teens ages 5–18 who need mental health support but face financial barriers.

Because of this generosity, more young people in our community will have access to the compassionate, professional care they deserve—whether it’s through individual counseling, group workshops, or youth center partnerships.

We’re so grateful to The Cigna Group Foundation for investing in the future of our youth and walking alongside us in this mission.

💛 Together, we are transforming lives, one child at a time.

We love a good joke (and today happens to be International Joke Day 😆🤣) because laughter really can be good medicine. It can ease tension, boost mood, and bring people together.

But sometimes, we need more than just a laugh.

Caring for your mental health is no joke—and at New London Counseling Center, we’re here when you or someone you love needs more than a funny meme or a quick fix. Whether you're facing anxiety, grief, stress, or just feeling off—we believe everyone deserves access to quality, compassionate mental health care.

So laugh when you can, and know we’re here when you need more. 💛

A School-Year of Impact: 2024–25 Recap!

To the school counselors, teachers, and staff—thank you.
To the directors and staff at The Garage and The Lighthouse Youth Centers —thank you.
This year, we partnered with incredible educators and support staff who opened their doors and trusted us to care for their students.

It takes a village—and we’re honored to be part of yours.

🗣️ “The students on my caseload that work with NLCC always have great things to say about the support they receive. Thank you so much for all you do!" -AGSD Counselor

As we step into summer, we’re celebrating all the grown-ups who made space for mental health this year. You're making a difference! Happy Summer!

A School-Year of Impact: 2024–25 Recap!

Through weekly art therapy and mindfulness workshops this past school year at The Garage and The Lighthouse Youth Centers, students had space to express, connect, and breathe.

From painting to mindfulness to body scans and breathing exercises—our groups gave students tools they can carry with them well beyond the school year.

We even did some of these workshops with local church youth groups!

Our hope is that we gave these students practical and valuable ways to recognize their emotions, and healthy ways to deal with anger, stress, sadness and more. Skills that will last all summer long...and beyond!

A School-Year of Impact: 2024–25 Recap!

1,700+ sessions
Yep, you read that right, this school year, our therapists provided approximately 1,700 counseling sessions to students in the Avon Grove School District, plus even more at The Garage Youth Center—giving kids and teens a safe space to talk, heal, and grow. We think that's incredible!!

Behind every session is a story of resilience—and a community that makes it possible.

🗣️ "It has been great to have another layer of support for our students in the building."
🗣️"The NLCC therapists are always responsive with emails and checking-in with the School Counselors about their clients/students. They offer useful strategies and support, not only for the student, but also in meetings."
– School Staff, AGSD

🫶We feel incredibly lucky to have these partnerships, and that each of these organizations are making mental health care a priority among the students that they serve.

In 2023, Cleveland Clinic’s national MENtion It® survey found that 44% of men believe they live a healthy lifestyle, but don’t prioritize their mental health. A whopping 65% of men said they hesitate to seek professional help for mental health concerns like stress, anxiety and depression.

“Pretending our issues don’t exist is unhealthy,” says psychologist Adam Borland, PsyD. “It takes real strength and courage to look in the mirror and say, I'm dealing with some issues, and I want to figure them out.”
