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

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!
