Counseling for New Albany and Union County
New Albany has a lot going for it: a lively historic downtown, the Tallahatchie River, the northern trailhead of the Tanglefoot Trail, and its claim as William Faulkner's birthplace. It also has the same quiet struggles every community has, the ones that rarely get talked about over lunch downtown.
Covenant Counseling is about 37 miles west of New Albany on Highway 30, usually 45 minutes to an hour. Our office is at 2692 W Oxford Loop, Suite 108, in Oxford, in the first building behind Home Goods. We also offer secure online counseling to clients anywhere in Mississippi.

Whether you're dealing with constant conflict, emotional distance, or the aftermath of an affair or addiction, read more about marriage counseling.
Betrayal trauma: care for the partner
If you've found out your spouse has been hiding pornography, affairs, or other sexual behavior, the shock can feel physical. You may be second-guessing your own memory and judgment. That's betrayal trauma, and it deserves real care. You need support for your own healing, not just help managing your spouse's recovery. Learn more about betrayal trauma counseling.
