Pro Bono Counseling Project

Our Vision

At Pro Bono Counseling, we envision a Maryland where every individual has access to quality mental healthcare regardless of their financial situation. We believe in the power of connection and collaboration, and strive to foster open conversations and empower individuals to overcome challenges.

Our Mission

Our mission is to connect uninsured and underinsured low-income Marylanders with licensed mental health professionals who volunteer their time to provide affordable therapy. We work to ensure that every individual has a safe and confidential space to explore their mental health needs and work towards positive change.

We offer a range of services to support Marylanders on their journeys to mental well-being.

• Matching people with therapists: Our team carefully assesses individual needs and matches them with qualified volunteer therapists who specialize in their areas of concern.
• WARMLine: Our confidential hotline connects individuals with volunteer clinicians offering immediate support and guidance.
• Clinician Network: We maintain a network of over 850 licensed therapists who provide a diverse range of services, covering various therapeutic modalities and specialties.
• Community outreach: We actively promote mental health awareness and provide support to various community organizations.

Our Values

• Equity and Access: We believe that access to quality mental healthcare should be available to all, regardless of background or financial situation.
• Collaboration and Empowerment: We foster open communication and collaboration between clients, therapists, and the community.
• Confidentiality and Compassion: We prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment where individuals can feel comfortable sharing their vulnerabilities.
