Kerans Christian Counseling
WELCOME! Corinne understands how hard it is to ask for help, and she understands that it takes courage, faith and humility to take that step. The mission of Kerans Counseling is to provide the highest quality, Christ centered counsel to Christian women who are seeking biblical guidance. May the Lord bless this initial step of faith you are taking and may you remember that He is with you always.
Christian Counseling Online Ministry: No fee. When possible, Corinne offers free counseling or "by-donation" counseling. This offering is only available because of regular donations. Any donation is helpful to keep this ministry going. Please ask if this is available (when donation levels are too low, Corinne has to charge for counseling, even though that is not what she prefers to do).
If the "by-donation" ministry is not available, the fee for online biblical support is $120 per session. Each session is scheduled for 75-minute increments. After the session, Corinne will prayerfully compose a customized homework email (based on the session) which usually requires 15-30 minutes of Corinne's time. Fees will be collected at the end of each session.
Financial Hardship Sliding Scale Fee: To inquire about Sliding Scale Fees, you will need to email Corinne at corinnekerans@gmail.com and request a quote based on your total household income and number of people currently living in the home. If Corinne has sliding scale fee slots open, she will reply with the cost per session and coordinate with you to schedule an appointment.
THREE Ways to Pay and/or Donate:
1. PAYMENT ONLY: If you wish to pre-pay, visit www.keranscounseling.com and go to the "Forms" Page at the top of the site. Then, under "Remote Support," click "Click Here." That will take you to a payment page where you can enter your credit card information. Otherwise, a link will be emailed to you at the end of your 75-minute session.
2. VENMO: Two Ways to use. 1) Download the app to your phone, attach your bank information to the account, and search “Corinne Kerans.” Once you locate Corinne, use the icon (with a pen and $ sign) and fill out the dollar amount and select “PAY.” Note: If you wish to use Venmo, please have this app ready on your phone so that Corinne can request payment near the end of your session.
For donations, visit www.keranscounseling.com and go to the “Forms” page, and click “Venmo” under "Give a blessing." Women who decide to regularly donate to Kerans Counseling can use this link, however it can still be used to pay for sessions via Venmo. You will be instructed from the Venmo website on how to proceed should you enter Venmo through the counseling site. ***Payments can only be sent through a phone.
3. PAYPAL: This option is like the Venmo app, except it does charge a 3% fee to Corinne. This is ok if you already have this account and prefer this method. At the end of the session, Corinne will request payment through PayPal. You will need to have this account set up PRIOR to the session. For donations, visit www.keranscounseling.com and when you are on the HOME page, click “Give Support” near the top of the webpage.
Prior to Reserving your Appointment:
1. Consent to Services: Please read and respond to this paperwork. You will see your place to sign and date later in this online form.
2. Please fill out the “Personal Data Inventory Form” on the website. This is located on the “Forms” page. If this is not filled out, Corinne will wait to schedule your first appointment unless you communicate an inability to complete this form.
3. Corinne will review your paperwork and respond. If she believes she can help, she will reach out regarding scheduling, find out your availability and preferred method communication (phone or zoom), and of payment preferences. *** Venmo & Paypal Payment accounts need to set prior to the first appointment. At the beginning of the first appointment Corinne will make sure accounts are in order.
