Starting Christian counseling

What is Christian counseling?

Christian counseling in Salem 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.

Tim is an awesome listener! He remembers conversations that we've had and will bring them up as a gage to of the progress I've made. I would recommend him to anyone who is considering therapy!

Flexibility for evening and weekends was really important to me seeking out therapy. The availability alone for Timothy was a positive for keeping him as my provider, in addition to the understanding he has for allowing me to express feelings and opinions at my workplace which is the primary stressor as an educator.

Lisa is really thoughtful and has such great information.. She has helped me extremely well although I don't think that sentence is synthetically correct.

I appreciate the helpful insights/perspective and supportive suggestions, therapeutic tools, compassionate understanding, and honest feedback/coaching that my therapist provides each session, which is helping me to learn to reframe my thoughts/experiences in healthier ways and practice greater self-compassion.

I have had difficulty finding a therapist I clicked with in the past. They were either too afraid of losing clients or they'd promote unhealthy coping mechanisms. This was my first time going to a therapist where it felt like I was working with a professional who knew what he was doing and had the resources and know-how to help. It's been an extremely helpful experience over the last two years- I don't know if I'd be in the place I'm at without it

Lisa is amazing. She takes the time to listen and makes me feel as though I can share anything with her. She knows how to take it in and approach the matter without making me feel less than or worse for sharing. Plus she is extremely knowledgeable. . The only thing I would like to see, and this has nothing to do with Lisa, would be like sick time or something I could build or have for times something would come up and i couldn't make an appointment. I understand this can't be an option for all, but if you have been with the program for a year plus and have weekly meetings that you do make it to, I just feel as though the program should beable to work with you if you show that you are serious about it. That's all. Thank you. -Kevin
