Money and budget constraints are biggest challenges and fear school leaders report having when it comes to bringing mental health access, on campus. The good news is, we can offer stand-alone mental health services to your students at no cost to the institution, while offering low income students sliding scale rates for therapy.
Historically, the average cost of a sliding scale therapy session at school/college sites we currently operate in is $11; whereas for-profit entities and hospital systems are likely to charge the market rate of $175 per session.
Our specialty since 2017, has been the creation and implementation of customized mental health programs to ensure the highest quality of service and care for students.
Transformative Growth Counseling is a 501c(3) non-profit organization with a mission of providing mental health services to underserved populations, including students, rurally located persons, members of the LGBTQIA+, Veteran & Active Duty Military, and BIPOC communities.TGC has been conducting peer-to-peer programming, organizational consultation, access to mental health care and school-wide mental health education, in person and online, in primary and secondary schools since 2017.
Since 2017, what we have found in our collaborations with many schools is that one solution does not fit all. But by building a customized plan for mental health in your school and using evidence-based research to lead that programming, the result is a solid foundation that will help support students’ mental health care needs, provide them with community resources and retain more of them, all the way through graduation. In most cases, we can go from creation to implementation in as quickly as 90 days.
