About New London Counseling Center
The mission of New London Counseling Center is to provide quality, compassionate mental health services that are accessible and affordable to anyone in our community.
Our team of licensed clinicians bring their diverse experiences and specialties to our practice with the goal of creating a culture that promotes mental well-being and destigmatizes therapy. We acknowledge that we are all broken, and we can all benefit from professional support at one time or another. Through our community-centered approach, we intend to tear down the walls of traditional mental health delivery by meeting people where they are every day – this currently includes partnerships with the Avon Grove School District, as well as The Garage Youth Center and The Lighthouse Youth Center, where we can meet youth where they are, and remove barriers of transportation. Additionally, we partner with local churches to provide care and support groups in various settings.
The New London Counseling Center opened its doors on April 1, 2019, and our dedicated team is ready to provide individual, family, and group therapy to people ages 5 and up. Through fundraising and grants, The New London Counseling Center strives to provide care to all who need it and not turn anyone away due to financial reasons. As of December 4, 2018 New London Counseling Center is a 501(c)3 nonprofit public charity.

-NLCC Client
Members of the Christian Life Center in Lincoln University recognized a need for mental health services in Southern Chester County and wanted to make counseling available to the entire community. Pastor Joshua Roberts from the Christian Life Center invited Dr. Katie Bowman to join this endeavor, and the New London Counseling Center was born. The Christian Life Center has been, and will continue to be, a generous donor towards this organization and an important community partner.
Dr. Katie Bowman and the founding Board of Directors (Joshua Roberts, Michael Woodin, and Joyce Ross) put together the organization’s guiding plan. Through fundraising and grants, and the financial contributions of individuals and businesses, The New London Counseling Center strives to provide care to all who need it and not turn anyone away due to financial reasons.
Founding NLCC
History
The New London Counseling Center operates out of a grand home with a rich history, built in the 1850s and nestled in historic New London Village. The quiet solitude and beauty offered by this home and land is evident as soon as you pull into the driveway. The property boasts a working farm sprawled over eight acres. It houses a barn, silo and airplane hangar that once operated as the New London Airport over several decades. Today, the former landing strip has been returned to farm land.
