The Refuge Center for Counseling

Call Directions Website

We exist to offer excellent, accessible, and affordable mental and emotional healthcare services.

The vision of The Refuge Center is to make sure that every individual and family had the opportunity to seek therapeutic resources, regardless of income level. There are few opportunities for affordable counseling in the area, as many local therapists charge $90-$150 per session. The Refuge Center offers therapy to those who can not afford these fees and bases their fees on a sliding-scale based on income that ranges from $25-$125.

Steve and Julie Abernathy have been faithful donors and members of our Partnership Council for years now. Hear why the work we do is important for them to be apart of, and how they got involved.

It’s Halloween at Refuge & we had some MAJOR country influences in the house! Not 1 but 2 Dolly Partons, Randy Travis & a good ole’ Southern Hillbilly!🤠

(Someone might need to check on Randy - I think the Dolly’s were fighting over him for a dance at the end of the video!👀😂)

Yesterday, our CEO and Co-Founder, Amy Alexander, had the honor of attending and speaking at the Center for Nonprofit Excellence’s 2026 Salute to Excellence Awards.

As last year’s CEO of the Year recipient, Amy had the special privilege of presenting this year’s award to Dr. Laura Ferguson Mimms of TN Higher Education Initiative !

This annual celebration recognizes the extraordinary nonprofit leaders and organizations whose dedication to service continues to strengthen our communities.

Congratulations to Dr. Laura and all of this year’s honorees! We are grateful to be part of a community of leaders committed to serving others and creating lasting change.

Thank you to the Center for Nonprofit Excellence for celebrating the incredible work happening across Middle Tennessee!

Class is in session with Amy Alexander, CEO & Co-Founder of the Refuge Center, as she answers “Why isn’t it as simple as it sounds to leave an abusive relationship?”

In short, “the rescuer and torturer are the same person…” but how does someone get stuck in this cycle? Listen to learn as Amy utilizes the Cycle of Abuse.

If you recognize yourself in this cycle, please dial 988 or the Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-788-SAFE(7233) or text “START” to 88788. Know that we are also here to walk alongside you… 💜

We’re hiring a Client Access Supervisor!

Every person who reaches out to The Refuge Center deserves a clear, warm path to care. The Client Access Supervisor leads the team that makes that happen, overseeing our Call Specialists and Care Specialists and owning the journey from someone’s first call to their first counseling appointment, with the goal of getting every client there within two to three weeks.

We’re looking for an experienced operations leader who is just as comfortable digging into a report as sitting with a team member after a hard call. Someone direct and kind, steady under pressure, and committed to the belief that no one should be turned away from care because of their income.

This is a full-time, in-office position at our Franklin location. Learn more at refugecenter.org/jobs, and send your resume to [email protected].
