Community Programs and Special Initiatives

Counseling at Haywood Street Congregation

One of our therapists, Annie Fahy, is now onsite at The Haywood Street Congregation every Wednesday from 9:30am-1:30pm, the exact same time as their Welcome Table lunch ministry. There are so many incredible services offered during this time of “holy chaos” including free haircuts, acupuncture, health screenings, and an art therapy room. Thanks to a generous grant from Pisgah Investments Foundation, we are thrilled to be able to provide a compassionate support therapist who will offer counseling services in a quiet, confidential room right across from the dining hall.

Client Testimonials

ASCC has helped my partner and I have a better quality of life that we otherwise would not have been able to afford. Thank you.

I feel very safe talking with [my therapist]. She always listens to everything I need to say and responds with great empathy and understanding. She has helped me open up more and revisit things that I thought I had dealt with but in fact are still challenging my mental health more than I thought they were. We have been working very hard to get to the root of my problems instead of just fixing whats more visible on the surface.

I am so glad to have found All Souls. I would not have been able to receive therapy otherwise!

My sessions with [my therapist] have really changed a lot for me. Eliza is always knowledgeable, nonjudgemental, unbiased, and thoroughly insightful. I have never been happier with a therapist.

This place has been a literal life-saver. I have never felt more respected or understood by a counselor. Now that I’ve come here I can’t imagine what I’d do without this place.

I'm so glad I found ASCC. I had been in therapy/counseling before, but it had become too expensive. It was important that I had a therapist and I have felt an improvement in my mental health.

[My counselor] is very likely saving my life. My gratitude has no measure. Thank you.

I’ve noticed the changes in my personal life have gotten better and with the help of counseling I’m more happier and able to see growth.

[My counselor’s] calm accepting demeanor helped me feel comfortable and safe in discussing anything. Her suggestions were pivotal and realistic in helping me deal more successfully with my anxiety.

[My counselor] has been a vital part of working my way out of a very difficult time in my life. She listened attentively, asked difficult questions that needed to be asked and with a sincere sense of compassion.

[My counselor] brought so much light to our marital issues. He helped us work through years of built up negativity. With his guidance, we were able to find our love and compassion for each other again.

I have come for both individual as well as couples therapy and I love the level of care I receive here. So thankful to have found you guys.

I am so thankful for ASCC. [My counselor] has been amazing to work with...it's been so helpful to be able to utilize this service and the much needed support I've been searching for. 

My experience here at All Souls has been so life changing. The amount of compassion and dedication I feel here is so comforting. I wasn’t sure I would ever get my mind and life back but I did and I’m so grateful for this place, I love it!
