Christian counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer. It depends on what challenges the client might be working through, the severity of those challenges, as well as other needs or preferences.
Christian Counseling – Therapists and Counselors in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs Thriveworks has trained therapists adept in counseling strategies and share your Christian faith. They understand how important your walk with God is and encourage your spiritual and personal growth.
Christian beliefs are overflowing with hope, love and healing. Spiritual health is just as important as mental and emotional and is often the missing piece in therapy. Colorado Springs Thriveworks can offer that missing piece!
Reducing the Stigma
There is nothing shameful about receiving extra, external help as a Christian. Believers are meant to strengthen each other, and a Thriveworks counselor is nothing but a fellow believer with professional training in therapy. Reaching out for help does not reflect negatively on your faith, it actually signifies strength!
How Does Christian Counseling Work?
In many ways, a session with one of Thriveworks’ Christian therapists will be like any other therapy session: uniquely structured to fit your needs and goals and orientated to produce personal growth! Christian therapy deviates from the norm in that it can focus on the shared spiritual beliefs between client and counselor. It exists on a spectrum and can be heavily influenced by your faith or have more of an emphasis on traditional therapy strategies. It is up to you!
Often, Christian values are brought up and talked about in regard to your personal struggles. Scripture can be examined, and we can discuss how your faith intertwines with adversity: mental or otherwise. Christian therapy may be for you if you have questions or doubts about:
- What the Bible says about your adversity
- Actions and next steps that align with your beliefs
- How to find relief through your faith
Who Can Christian Therapy Help?
The possibilities of discussions and applications are limitless. Christian therapy can be supplemental to any type of therapy- no matter the problem! Some common situations that benefit from Christian therapy include, but aren’t limited to:
- Relationship Issues
- Major change in life (career, move, etc.)
- Grief and loss
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Substance Abuse and addiction
- Feeling a spiritual void
- Low self-esteem
- Forgiveness
- Anger management
Any other trials you may be experiencing!
