Christian faith in counseling.

Christian counseling is for those coming from a Christian background who want faith to be a part of your counseling experience. Many Sheltering Oaks clients come from Protestant, Evangelical, and Catholic backgrounds. One of our passions is integrating Christian spirituality with Scripture, mental health research, and proven interventions. This method helps people and relationships find greater wholeness.

People often seek Christian counseling when they experience a crisis of faith. Of course, traumatic life events, painful experiences, or a season of feeling distant from God can cause tension. These people seek a Christian counselor to help process grief and trauma. Guidance to find the right path ahead.

At Sheltering Oaks, we are a safe place for people to freely process. Joining our clients on a spiritual journey to take the next steps in relationship and life with God.

Christian Counseling: Integrating faith into the therapy process.

You may be dealing with an individual or relationship crisis and desire faith to be a part of the counseling process. We have worked with many couples, families, and individuals. In general, with relationship issues, conflict, or distress, in Christian counseling.

Christian counseling integrates faith in the therapeutic process. Integrated, to help people reach their goals. With issues like grief and loss, anxiety, or depression, faith can sometimes feel confusing. Of course, it feels more complicated in the midst of constant struggle.

We use a Christian counseling approach to help clients deal with their problems. And, discover how faith relates to their circumstances, to find hope for their future.

In Christian counseling, changes will often come through your own experience of purposeful processing and reflection. As Christian counselors, we see our role as working alongside the client. To help guide them in that process. So, they can finally get the change and transformation they need.

We use counseling methods that work. Empathetic listening, curious questions, and a variety of therapeutic skills and techniques. Truly, we journey with people in this important process.

In Christian counseling, clients can experience renewal in their relationship with God. And, a confidence that God is with them where they are. Finally, clarity for how to keep taking the next steps in their faith journey. The Christian counseling process can empower people to live out their faith. Not just individually, but also with families and relationships, and in the world, with greater peace and confidence.

Visit us for a safe place to process with someone about your faith. Or, to talk about how your faith relates to a life crisis or situation you are experiencing. Of course, we would love to be there for you and use our training and experience to help.

Our goal is to meet you where you are and help you get to where you want to be. We trust that God is with us in this process and work. Many clients have experienced the counseling process to be a catalyst for their continued spiritual growth and faith.
