Introduction
Pro Bono Counseling’s volunteer clinicians are the lifeblood of the organization and the driving force behind its efforts. We would like to sincerely thank the more than two thousand mental health professionals who have given their time since our inception in 1991. It is through their exceptional generosity that PBC can continue to help Marylanders with limited resources receive quality mental health care.
What are the Benefits?
When you enroll as a volunteer with Pro Bono Counseling (PBC), you are part of a movement to improve access to mental health care in Maryland. Our network of over 850 participating clinicians donates over 16,000 hours of their time each year to improve the lives of Marylanders in need of counseling.
Enrolling as a volunteer clinician with Pro Bono Counseling also offers benefits to you, including:
Thoroughly Screened Clients
PBC takes care to ensure that all new clients are thoroughly screened by a licensed social worker during the intake process, and we only match clients who can engage in insight-oriented counseling.
Free Continuing Education Workshops
Pro Bono Counseling is approved by the APA to sponsor continuing education for psychologists. PBC is also an approved CE sponsor for the MD Boards of Social Work Examiners and Professional Counselors and Therapists. Learn more about our upcoming workshops.
Case Consultation
PBC’s Clinical Director, an LCSW-C with over 20 years of experience, is available for case consultation.
