Starting Christian counseling

What is Christian counseling?

Christian counseling in Raleigh 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.

Christian Counseling in Raleigh, NC—Christian Counselors, Therapists 

Sometimes, we lose sight of our faith. We become distracted by the hustle and bustle of day to day life—and then top that with stressors, pressure, and other life challenges. Christian counselors know just how overwhelming life can become and how that might affect one’s relationship with God. They also know how they can help you refocus on your faith and improve your relationship with God, whilst working through the distractions or challenges that are in front of you.

Difficulties and obstacles are God’s challenges to faith. When hindrances confront us in the path of duty, we are to recognize Them as vessels for faith to fill with the fullness and all-sufficiency of Jesus. –A.B. Simpson

Are you searching for help with your challenges and guidance in your faith? You’re in the right place. Thriveworks Counseling in Raleigh has Christian counselors on our team who are perfectly fit for the job.

Who Can Benefit from Working with a Christian Counselor?

Christian counseling, also called biblical counseling, utilizes both teachings of the Christian faith and therapeutic techniques. The main goal of Christian counseling is to help people make improvements to their mental health and overall wellbeing as well as address any life issues. The type of counseling incorporates scriptures and lessons from the bible to supplement psychological treatment.

When we’re bombarded with stressful or painful challenges, finding refuge in our faith is often just what we need. Research shows that turning to one’s faith and religion can help them to overcome these stressful times and keep their mental health intact. For example, when we lose a close loved one, when we fight with our partner, when we encounter a lot of stress, and so on. This list can go on for eternity. The point, though, is that Christian counseling can help people of the Christian faith work through their challenges and also grow closer to God.

Remember that whatever is on your plate, whatever baggage you are carrying, Thriveworks Counseling is here to help you. Our Christian counselors will help you live happier, live healthier, and find more success, too!

Goals of Christian Counseling: What Are They?

Again, the main goal of Christian counseling is to help people make improvements to their mental health and wellbeing as well as address any specific challenges. That said, the specific goals for Christian counseling can vary from client to client, depending on what’s going on in their life. Here are some common Christian counseling goals that might prove important to you:

Had bad fall last year and I was feeling sad, depressed and angry cuz now I couldn't go to see my auntie mom like I was doing two or three times a year.  Now I have to be home I broke my wrist in two places now I have doctors and doctors and doctors and x-rays and all this other stuff going on and I felt like I didn't have my life, didn't have a life right then and I know I would get better but it was taking too long so that was infecting me mentally and so I found the Thriveworks card at my pain doctors office and I gave him a call and immediately they set me up with an appointment.  I've had three or four appointments now.  I'm starting to feel better because I live by myself, I'm 71, and I needed someone to talk to so y'all set me up with a very nice lady.  I learned out to do Zoom and a couple meetings of course, but I'm feeling better  as time goes on.  I still have to have another surgery but at least I'm closer to being able to traveling again right now I can even walk a half a block so thank you Thriveworks for being there for me.  I don't know how ling I need you but I'm glad you're there.  My person is kind to start phone she allows me to talk, she gives me feedback, and I'm just so grateful to have had her during this holiday as well so I've also recommended a couple other people to try Thriveworks right at my doctor's office and they seem interested.  Thank you Thriveworks

I have known Mrs. Ashley Barber-Brown for 18 years now and I can honestly say that she is truly an amazing person. Besides her strong will to work hard and take care of her family, Ashley is also compassionate and undoubtedly dedicated to making sure that she helps others. Her selflessness, loyalty and authentic personality are just some of the many attributes that I admire about her.
