Fees
We know the rising costs of medical and mental health care can be overwhelming. But, through the ministry our fees depend on your family’s annual income. Your fee will be negotiated with your therapist at the time of your initial session. Since we do not accept insurance, we make sure your fee will be manageable for you and your family. That’s what our ministry is about.

Class/ Workshop Costs
The workshops can be designed to fit your congregation and budget.

• The fee is $80 per hour for workshop/ classes
• The length of the workshop can vary from 1-8 sessions at an hour per session depending on the content and budget.
• The workshop can be held at your church during an agreed upon time slot (ex: during Sunday school, Sunday evenings, Wednesday evenings, etc.)
• Typically, the church charges the attendees a small registration fee (ex: $10-30) depending on the workshop. Or if you so choose, you can offer it at no cost to them depending on your church budget.
• Our goal is to eventually provide these services at no cost to your church through the Ministry, when we are more established and receive more funding, we will be able to offer workshops for little to no cost.

Please contact us if your church is interested in providing a class/ workshop for your congregation. We can schedule a meeting to plan dates, times and budgets.
