Starting Christian counseling

What is Christian counseling?

Christian counseling in Athens is a form of faith-based counseling that utilizes psychological and spiritual techniques to guide and support. Often, Christian counselors often incorporate prayer and scripture-reading into treatment to help practicing Christians work through their challenges.

How does Christian counseling work?

Christian counseling works by focusing on themes of hope and healing through one’s faith. At Thriveworks, your Christian counselor will discuss Christian values and relate them to your unique struggles. You can expect to discuss the following with them:

  • Your Christian identity
  • Your relationship with God
  • What the bible says about your current challenges
  • How you can overcome your struggles in a way that aligns with your faith
  • How to channel your religion in a way that helps you heal

Is Christian counseling conducted in person or online?

Christian counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does Christian counseling last?

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.

I love my provider and i'm glad to have found someone who's so similar to me, kind, caring and intelligent. On other online therapy platforms my providers would quit very consistently which led me to not pursue therapy for a while. I'm glad to have been seeing my provider for more than a year now!

Alexes is hands down THE best therapist I have worked with. She listens, gives me tools, allows me to practice the tools with her, reminds me of when I am not giving myself credit and calling me out gently when I am not using my tools or have be falling short.
