Starting Christian counseling in Shreveport

What is Christian counseling?

Christian counseling in Shreveport 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.

Andrew is amazing. He listens very well and even though I talk really fast and throw a lot of information at him, he is very tentative, thoughtful and takes as many notes as possible. I'm very excited for my next session!

Ella Bradford is my therapist and I could not be any more blessed and fortunate. She is amazing and there was a connection from the start with us. I look forward to our sessions together because there is not anything that I won't share with her. She has worked me through so many of my issues and continues to give her all to me to help me alleviate and improve my anxiety, depression and self destructive behavior. Many times she will email me with these enlightening articles that are relevant to our time together that day. I was overwhelmed that she would take the time to do this . I read them through and then we discuss what I have read at the next session. I have had other therapists and there is not one that has helped me as well as Ella. It is a gift to me that I am fortunate enough to have been teamed up with her. There is something to be said when you have a therapist that you can tell everything to and especially information that I have never shared with any one else. It is therapeutic and I look forward to our scheduled times together because it is very special when I can discuss any issue, problem, embarrassment, or past destructive behavior and she gets me through all of it.

I appreciate the statements which point out that I am NOT the only clueless dude around, but share mistaken beliefs with others.
