Christian Counseling
What is Christian counseling?
Christian counseling and psychotherapy implements traditional philosophies and techniques from counseling and psychotherapy as well as Biblical principles and theology from a Christian perspective. Christian counseling and psychotherapy emphasize and encourage adherence to Biblical principles, Christian spirituality and the Christian way of life. Christians who may be struggling with emotional difficulties, mental health problems or relationship issues will not only receive professional therapeutic assistance for those issues but, will also learn how to manage or overcome them in a way that is congruent with their Christian belief system.
Christian counseling and secular counseling share similar desires to assist people in overcoming their problems. They both strive to help people find meaning and joy in their lives and to become healthy and well-adjusted individuals both psychologically and emotionally.

For those of another faith, keep in mind that fifty percent of my caseload is made up of clients that either do not have any strong religious beliefs or they come from different religious/spiritual backgrounds. In no way will I impose my own faith on a client. I have conducted counseling and psychotherapy for many people of many different faiths and I have never had any issues or complaints reported.
If you are interested in learning more about the Christian way of life or the therapeutic aspects of Christian counseling I will be glad answer any questions and share more details. No matter where you may be emotionally, psychologically or spiritually, counseling and psychotherapy can be extremely beneficial in helping you to improve your mental health and your way of life.
