Christian Counseling Grand Junction

Christian counseling seeks not only to treat the symptoms of your issues, but nourish your soul as well. This is why many Christians feel that they are best served by Christian counseling services in Grand Junction. But how do you choose the right therapist for you?

Some therapists want to counsel biblically, but they are not necessarily equipped to do so. There are a number of things to consider when choosing your Christian therapist.

First of all, look at his or her credentials. Did the therapist attend university or earn a certificate through a valid organization? More importantly, what are the therapist's beliefs about God? On your first meeting, don't be afraid to ask the counselor about his or her education background. Also ask about how the Scripture is integrated in the therapist's practice.

You also have to assess the counselor's ability to truly listen and truly empathize. Some therapists are knowledgeable about the Scripture and Christian therapeutic techniques but don't listen well. You don't need someone to lecture you--you want someone who is interested in listening and understanding you so that he or she can repair strengthen what is weak or repair what is broken You want a counselor who can give both critical as well as positive and honest feedback. A good Christian counselor is your ally, never your enemy.
