What We Do

Capital for Counsel is a nonprofit organization based in Dallas, Texas. Our mission is to assist young adults ages 16 – 29 with financial and healthcare needs through helping fund their mental health counseling.

Why We Do It

Navigating young adulthood can often feel like a harrowing and confusing task. Finding a therapist to help you cope with the stress and anxiety that come along with the challenges of these developmental and often financially unstable years can be majorly beneficial. Unfortunately, therapy isn’t cheap, and even with insurance, a few sessions of professional counseling can take a big hit to your pockets. This can sometimes deter us from seeking help when we need it most. That’s where we come in. At Capital for Counsel, we provide cash grants covering therapy for young adults in financial need, between the ages of 16 to 29, living in the DFW area. No one deserves to suffer in silence, and we are here to assist you in finding and funding the quality counseling that you deserve. 

Who We Do It For

Those you can apply for grants from Capital for Counsel are young adults ages 16–29 with financial and or healthcare needs and residents of the following Texas counties: Dallas, Ellis, Johnson, Rockwall, Kaufman, Tarrant, Denton, and Collin.

How We Do It

Our application is accessed through our website capitalforcounsel.org. Once you fill it out, you will email the completed application to our director and president Spencer Humphreys. Each application will be reviewed by our board and selected based on need. If you are approved, we will send you notification of your approval including the financial details of your new grant and how we will move forward with distributing it. Payments will be handled amongst your healthcare provider and our organization. After each counseling session, your provider will send us the. percentage of the invoice that we have agreed upon and it will be paid by the end of the same workday. We can cover a percentage of up to ten sixty-minute sessions of counseling which must be completed within the first year of your first session.
