Annual Report
2012
Pastoral Counseling Centers of Tennessee, Inc.
From the Executive Director 2012 was a year of transitions for us. While we had some struggles and some losses this year, we also had changes and gains that have set us in place for an exciting year in 2013. We have made changes to make it easier for us to be in touch with our supporters and those who regularly make referrals to us. We have created more opportunities for volunteering and for personalized giving. We are enhancing our training opportunities and continuing to strengthen our Board of Directors. The bottom line is that as we begin 2013, we are in the best place we have been in for the past 5 years. In 2012, PCCT provided just over 4,600 hours of counseling. This is very close to where we finished 2011. Each of those hours represents our investment in the lives of individuals, couples, and families who are struggling, so we hope that we can grow this number next year. PCCT saw a dramatic growth in the number clients needing financial assistance in 2012. More than two-thirds of our clients qualified for some financial assistance and just under half qualified for our maximum assistance. This is not ideal for us financially, but it means that we were able to bring the excellent care we provide to a number of people in great need. During 2012, our partnership with United Methodist’s Disaster Relief programs came to an end. This partnership had provided funds for counseling for those who are still recovering from the floods of 2010. The funds allocated for these services were finally exhausted. We continue to see a number of clients that are dealing with financial and emotional issues related to recovery from this devastating disaster. PCCT continued to work with the Lazarus Project in Clarksville, TN to provide services to veterans and their families. Our clients continue to come to us for marital and relationship problems (including parent-child difficulties), depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, sexual difficulties, spiritual difficulties and host of other mental and emotional complaints. During 2012, we continued to offer medication services at our Nashville (Vine Street) location. Unfortunately, the patient volume for this service did not develop as we had had hoped, and at the end of the year, we closed the clinic. It is our hope that we will find a way to provide these services again in the future. We are grateful for all of the work and sacrifice of Dr. Kirk Barton and our clinic assistant, Leta Pearce, and for their investment in our ministry. In addition to the loss of the medication clinic, 2012 was a year of some significant changes in our staff. In February, we welcomed Abbie Culbertson as our new Marketing Assistant (now titled Communications Coordinator). Abbie has brought expertise in graphic design, web design, and social media. Abbie did a complete revision of PCCT’s website in 2012 and has added to our presence on Facebook, Twitter, and now Pinterest.
2012 The addition of Abbie meant the loss of our long-time Executive Assistant, Caroline McBride. Caroline served PCCT faithfully for many years. It has been a year of transition in our executive leadership as well. Chrissa Walsh, Executive Director for Finance and Development, began a year-long process of leaving PCCT to deal with personal issues and to invest in a growing music career. Anticipating Chrissa’s departure at the end of 2012, PCCT has named Chris O’Rear, Executive Director for Clinical Services, as the new sole Executive Director and hired Michelle Burks as the new Director of Development, effective January 2013. Finally, PCCT renewed its commitment to clergy and clinical training by naming long-time employee, Steve Gillespie, as the new Director of Training. PCCT has long needed a way to provide more volunteer opportunities to our organization. We have also needed a better way to allow our supporters to give to the locations and populations that they want to support. We began to work on this in 2012 with the formation of our new Friends for Healing auxiliary. Within the structure of this supporting organization, PCCT will communicate better with an electronic newsletter, we will have more volunteer opportunities, and we will have ways for donors to give to various issues or various geographical locations. For more information or to sign up for our new newsletter, visit our website at www.pcctinc.org/friends. 2012 also marked significant changes in our Board of Directors. PCCT reduced the number of directors on the board, but brought on three new board members who enthusiastically began helping us plan our first ever music event. On October 4, PCCT held “An Evening of Music” at the Belcourt Theater. This event featured recording artists Ty Herndon and Jamie O’Neal and new artists Rachelle Lynae and Minnie Murphy. The event included information on PCCT and client stories. One highlight of the evening was the spontaneous gift and challenge from the audience that raised an additional $5,000. We thank you for your referrals, your prayers and your financial support of our important work in the community. We continue our mission of providing counseling for all, enrichment education for clergy, congregations and the community, and clinical training for future Pastoral Counselors. We welcome you to check out our new website, join our newsletter email list, and to keep up with the great things that are happening at PCCT.

Clarksville 732 session hours
$70.21 average fee
In 2012, Mr. Don Beck became the chair of the Clarksville Advisory Council. Through his leadership, the council established several goals: 1) To establish closer relationships with our supporting congregations 2) To develop additional supporting congregations 3) To make Clarksville more aware of the Pastoral Counseling Center 4) To focus on fundraising, especially for the Spring and Fall of 2013. Through Mr. Beck’s leadership, the council is effectively working to achieve these goals. In 2012, we provided a total of 731 counseling hours; these include individual, marital, and family sessions. We billed 91,375.00 dollars and collected 52,865.oo dollars; thus, we collected 58% of what we billed. This percentage ranks highest of all the Pastoral Counseling Centers of Tennessee. The average collected fee per visit was 72.32; again, this was highest collected fee of all centers. In the Fall of 2012, we welcomed an intern, Jenn Dondiego, to the Pastoral Counseling Center of Clarksville. She is a graduate of Northwestern Universtiy and is completing graduate work at Loyola University in Chicago. Her husband is stationed at Fort Campbell, and we hope to have Jenn on our staff as long as her husband remains in Clarksville. She has been a wonderful addition to our staff.

Vine Street 1,716 session hours
$48.70 average fee
The main office of the Pastoral Counseling Centers of Tennessee (PCCT) is located at the Vine Street Christian Church in Nashville. This location remains the busiest of our six Centers, and a majority of our counselors spend at least one day per week seeing clients at this location. In 2012 our counselors conducted 1991 sessions of counseling. With financial assistance to those who could not afford our regular fee of $125 per session, the average fee paid by clients was actually $47.50. Sixty-three percent of the cost of counseling had to be raised by the contributions of churches, individuals, and grants within the local community. Raising these funds continues to be a challenge, but we are indebted to the generosity and altruism of those who believe in and contribute to this very great need for first quality counseling affordable to all in the Nashville area. Currently our staff consists of Licensed Clinical Pastoral Therapists, Marriage and Family Therapists, Professional Counselors, Social Workers, and a Psychologist. Each of these professionals is committed to our mission, most have theological education, and many are ordained. The Vine Street Center is the place where all of our counselors gather on a weekly basis for psychiatric consultation, case presentations, and theological reflection upon the work we do together. We are proud of the professional diversity of our staff and of their commitment to wisely integrate the resources of the various faith traditions. There is no staff better trained to integrate the spiritual and the psycho-social dimensions in an attitude of respect for our clients’ individual belief systems. In addition to our clinical work, PCCT continues to grow in our capacity as an educational institution through our training programs. Through the supervision of five supervisors or supervisors-in-training, PCCT is able to provide practicum and internship opportunities for master level and Ph.D. students at Trevecca, Lipscomb, Vanderbilt, Argosy, and Loyola Seminary in Chicago. We have two supervisors for marriage and family therapy, one for social work, and all five are available for supervision of clinical pastoral therapists and professional counselors (50% of the requirements LPC’s). In our advanced supervision program, we supervise persons at the centers and in the community who are pursuing state licensure in LCPT, LMFT, LCSW and LPC (50% of requirements).
Another important training we offer is the Pastoral Care Specialist Program which seeks to help clergy and other church leaders improve their pastoral care skills. This program meets weekly for nine months and involves a commitment of three contact hours per week in didactic sessions and in consultation with two pastoral care consultants. In the fall of 2011, five students completed the program. These pastors and spiritual leaders returned to their various places of ministry better prepared to provide pastoral care in an ethical and professional way. We will begin the next group in the fall of 2013. We are grateful for the in-kind gift of the Vine Street Christian Church and for their generosity over the 28 years of our existence. We are also grateful to all the other contributing churches, generous individuals, grantors, and clients for the continued ministry to all persons regardless of faith, socio-economic status, race, or sexual orientation.

Franklin 713 session hours
$53.41 average fee
Transition was the theme in the Franklin office as it was in Brentwood. Chris O’Rear passed the baton of coordination to Carol Smith so that he could focus more of his energy on being Executive Director of PCCT. Chris, Carol, Trey Holt and Barbara Green continued to see clients in the Franklin office. Dan Marshall joined our staff as a part-time therapist while Rachel Peavyhouse Fay became our new practicum intern, both in the fall. Supervision of practicum students from local universities as well as therapists seeking state licensure was part of our service to the community through the Franklin office. Our client numbers and the average fee collected increased slightly for 2012, both very hopeful signs for our center. We are grateful to our host congregation, St. Paul’s Episcopal, for their partnership in the mission and ministry of PCCT. Working with the Williamson Advisory Council, St. Paul’s hosted the 7th Annual Chili Tasting and Cook-off as a fund and friend-raiser for the center. We said goodbye to Rev. Ann Vandervoort who retired during the summer from St. Paul’s. Rev. Vandervoort was an active member of the Williamson Advisory Council and a great friend of PCCT. We welcomed Rev. Tracy Wells Miller as the new liaison from St. Paul’s to the Franklin center and look forward to developing a great partnership with her. The connections Chris O’Rear has made in the community for the Franklin office garnered us an invitation from Emmanuel Presbyterian Church to participate in their “Friend-Raising Party” in June. We enjoyed a day in the sunshine while sharing information about PCCT and getting to know other people and organizations in our community.
The Williamson Advisory Council, which supports the Franklin and Brentwood centers, transitioned to new leadership in 2012. Bob Headley stepped down as chair and enlisted Rev. Tom Herring to take the lead. Rev. Herring added new members to the council and they began developing new strategies to support the Brentwood and Franklin offices. We are grateful for the leadership into 2013 and anticipate that our service in the community will be utilized even more fully due to the council’s efforts. Twenty-three churches were named as home to the clients who were served in the Franklin office. We are grateful to those churches and others in the community who partnered with us to bring hope and healing to the hurting among us. Carol Smith, M.Div., LMFT, Center Coordinator
Hosted by St. Paul’s Episcopal Church 506 Fair Street Franklin, TN 37064
Murfreesboro 593 session hours
$52.42 average fee
The Murfreesboro office of PCCT continues to offer counseling for individuals, couples and families. We are excited this year to begin offering support to the Spanishspeaking population. Claudia Avila-Lopez, L.M.S.W., is providing outpatient counseling one day a week at the Murfreesboro site while receiving supervision toward her L.C. S. W. Jeff Fryer, M.Div, has officially retired and has joined the staff at PCCT, providing outpatient sessions at the Murfreesboro site. He enjoys working with couples as well as individuals and has a long history in the community, as well as many friendly contacts. We are grateful to have him join us. The Survivor of Suicide group continues to offer a support group to the community, free of charge, on the second and fourth Mondays of the month. These groups continue to be a place of healing for people who have had a friend or family member take their own life by means of suicide. The Advisory Council has continued strong, lead by Dr. Virginia Dansby; St. Paul’s Episcopal. We had a very successful annual luncheon fundraiser, which included our first silent auction. Rik Gracia provided live music to make the experience a delightful time of friendship and information. Through the event, the Advisory Council raised over $4,000 and made a lot of positive connections in the community. Others currently serving on the Advisory Council include Shannon Woodfin Parsons, First Presbyterian; Dr. Judy Campbell, First Baptist Church; Rev. Michael Waldrop, Trinity United Methodist Church; Christine Lombardi, First Presbyterian; and Stephanie Hickerson, St. Paul’s Episcopal. As always, we are grateful for the opportunity to serve the Murfreesboro community. H. Karen Potratz, LCSW, Center Coordinator

Brentwood 364 session hours
$60.18 average fee
2012 was a year of many transitions in the Brentwood office. Steve Gillespie moved into Director of Training for Pastoral Counseling Centers and Carol Smith moved into coordinating the Brentwood and Franklin offices. We are glad Steve continues to see clients in the Brentwood office one day a week. We welcomed a new Practicum Intern, Rachel Peavyhouse Fay, who is completing her Masters in Counseling at Lipscomb University. Another transition in 2012 was that our colleague and friend, Dr. John Ishee, passed away. We have continued to miss his joyful and compassionate presence with us. We are grateful to The Church of the Advent for continuing to host the Brentwood office. The Advent faced her own transitions in 2012, saying goodbye to Father Tom Hotchkiss, who was moved to a congregation in Texas. We appreciate his support and pray for his continued effectiveness in ministry at his new place of service. The Rev. von Wrangel was called by the Advent as their Interim toward the end of the year. We are encouraged by her support and delighted to serve the congregation and the community along side her as the year turns. Twenty-one churches were named as home to the clients who were served in the Brentwood office. We are grateful to those churches and others in the community who partnered with us to bring hope and healing to the hurting among us. The advisory council which supports our Brentwood office, the Williamson Advisory Council, transitioned to a new chair in 2012. Rev. Tom Herring added new members to the council and has begun developing new strategies to support the Brentwood and Franklin offices. We are grateful for his leadership into 2013 and anticipate that our service in the community will be utilized even more fully due to his and the other council members’ efforts.

“There is a good sense of calm and peace here.”
“[My counselor] is very empathetic and conscientious.”
“He lets me take time in silence to do work without being awkward. He lets me come to my own conclusions before offering an interpretation or feedback. Yet he always has a roadmap in mind for future areas of growth. The balance between space and guidance is just right.”
“Respect for my counselor is at its highest! I was counseled with professionalism, compassion, and great knowledge. I highly recommend PCCT!”
“My counselor is a very caring, well-educated individual. Made me very comfortable in talking about my problems and ways to structure change for the better.”
“He is very sincere, listens well, and I sincerely have healed greatly because of our time together.”
“You have helped me greatly in renewing my life with God. That’s what I wanted and needed. I hope all who need help see PCCT.”

An Evening of Music with Ty Herndon, Jamie O’Neal, Rachele Lynae, and Minnie Murphy
At the Pastoral Counseling Centers of Tennessee, we’re committed to providing our services to everyone. Because of this commitment, we see many clients who can’t afford our regular fee. We rely upon generous donations from individuals, congregations, and foundations in order to provide the financial assistance for these clients.
This past year, in lieu of our annual Founder’s Banquet, a committee of PCCT Board and staff members created a music benefit event in order to give members of the community the chance to help us keep our commitment.
Minnie Murphy, Rachele Lynae, Jamie O’Neal, and Ty Herndon lit up the stage at the historic Belcourt Theater on the night of Thursday, October 4th, 2012. The event raised over $17,000 in all, which translates to more than 230 hours of hope and healing for our clients.
Our sincere thanks to the performers, all of our sponsors, volunteers from Belmont Service Corps and HCA, and everyone who attended the event!
Friends for
Healing Friends for Healing exists both to promote awareness of the services offered by the Pastoral Counseling Centers of Tennessee and to provide for the long-term financial stability necessary for PCCT to continue growing and serving the Middle Tennessee community. The Pastoral Counseling Centers of Tennessee has provided professional and theologically integrated psychotherapy to Middle Tennesseans continuously since 1985. For many of the people we serve, we provide hope, healing, and growth in ways that are life-giving and lifesaving. While many in our community can afford the regular costs of counseling, PCCT is committed to making our counseling services available to anyone in need without discrimination regarding their beliefs or ability to pay. Generous contributions from our supporters — individuals, congregations, businesses, foundations, and the community — help us provide financial assistance to many of the clients we serve.
Join us in serving your friends, family, and community — become a Friend!
