In compliance with the precautions regarding COVID-19, Catholic Counseling Service (CCS) continues to offer telehealth services to individuals, couples, and families through the phone or video-conferencing platforms. This new and effective method of counseling allows CCS to extend its services across the archdiocese to areas not previously available.
“Catholic Counseling Service is proud to continue its mission of providing quality and affordable counseling to the Archdiocese of New Orleans through the Coronavirus pandemic,” said CCS director Joey Pistorius.
Through the generosity of a donor, CCS has received a grant to increase the number of clients they can assist with the cost of counseling, including providing pro bono services when necessary. CCS offers counseling for $50 a session and will continue to use a sliding scale to assist anyone looking for counseling. The counselors and staff of CCS are committed to removing finances as an obstacle to mental health services.
