TESTIMONIALS
Read what our clients and counselors have to say about our Counseling Services program.
[Catholic Charities' Counseling Services program] helped us to move past our family problems and be more emotionally stable as a family. They've helped us find solutions for our problems..Counseling Services Client
Counseling Services ClientI would like to praise Catholic Charities for stepping up so quickly when everything around me was shutting down. I have been seeing [a Catholic Charities therapist] for several. months now, and without missing a beat, was able to continue seeing her virtually when Austin shut down due to COVID-19. Thank you for having the virtual counseling available during this stressful and emotional time. Keeping the connection has helped me to continue my journey and deal with some new and challenging issues that have arisen from COVID-19. Well done, Catholic Charities!
