In order to minister to both churches and individuals, we have created this program as a networking ministry to anyone looking to obtain or provide Christian counseling services in the DFW area. Through the Counseling Scholarship program, those seeking counsel can have financial assistance in getting the help they desire. In this program, each scholarship provides for 8 sessions of counseling, paid on a rotation basis by the client, the church, the counselor, and TBA—in that order. There is a maximum payment of $100 per session.
If you are seeking counsel, please contact your church to be sure that it is eligible and if so, have a staff member send in a referral to the Tarrant Baptist Association.
If there is someone at your church who is interested in counseling, a staff member needs to complete the referral form under Additional Resources. On the referral form, you will need to indicate which counselor you are requesting. Also, for your church to qualify for these services, your church has to be an active member of the Tarrant Baptist Association
We invite you to be a part of this great program. It gives you more exposure to new clients, as well as referral sources on a free referral network. It also gives you the chance to impact the kingdom by helping people get the counseling they need but cannot afford. If you are a counselor who is not on this list and you would like to be, or if you are on the list and any information is incorrect, please email us or call 817-927-1911, ext. 201.
