We live in a world where children and families face an ever-increasing number of pressures.  Hilldale Church of Christ and AGAPE of Nashville have partnered to provide the Clarksville community with a counseling resource to help deal with these pressures.  Our therapists are able to help individuals, as well as families, cope with the ongoing challenges of life.  Whether it’s depression, anxiety, emotional or behavioral challenges with a child, or marital difficulties, AGAPE’s dedicated professionals want to help you back on the path to healing through faith-based counseling and psychological services with an unconditional, agape love.

AGAPE provides individual counseling for pre-school and older children, adolescents, and adults. Couples’ counseling and family counseling are also available.  Counselors at AGAPE are experienced in assisting with a wide variety of problems or issues. Some of the more frequently seen problems involve depression, anxiety, marital conflicts, and child behavior. Substance abuse problems are usually referred to outside programs specializing in that area.

AGAPE Therapists

All of AGAPE’s regular counseling staff are licensed mental health professionals. Each is a Christian who possesses either a master's degree or doctoral degree in one of several fields such as Psychology, Social Work, Marriage and Family Therapy, or general counseling. AGAPE’s therapists have diverse backgrounds and experiences creating a team of individuals who offer multiple resources to clients and to each other.  Therapists integrate the values of Christ with their work and use God’s wisdom as a foundation for their skills in a variety of therapeutic approaches.

Fees and Insurance
AGAPE's customary fees for counseling services are $150 for an initial evaluation and $120 for each hourly counseling session. For those who qualify, those fees may be reduced based on gross household income and number of persons in the home (i.e., a sliding scale). If a client's insurance can be used, the client typically pays his/her insurance co-payment or sliding scale fee, whichever is less.

Most AGAPE counselors are on a number of insurance provider lists. Insurance policies vary widely and frequently have co-pays, deductibles, or other limitations to their coverage. However, chances are good that one or more counselors on staff would be able to accept your insurance.
