Therapy & Counseling
Lives Transforming's licensed mental health professionals provide different types of services based on your individual needs. Christian-based counseling differs from other types of counseling because of the focus of the therapy is Christ-centered and scripturally based. Christian counseling isn’t just concerned with “feeling better” but with “being better”. Christian counseling can help you process the situations, feelings, thoughts and goals associated with problems and help bring clarity and closure to the issues you are dealing with.

The Benefits and Risks of Counseling
When considering treatment, please consider the risks and benefits. In counseling, there is a risk clients will have uncomfortable levels of sadness, guilt, anxiety, anger, frustration, loneliness or other negative feelings. Clients may recall unpleasant memories. These feelings may bother a client at work or in school. Most of these risks are to be expected when people are making any important changes to their lives.
While you consider these risks, you should know also that the benefits of Counseling have been shown by scientists in hundreds of well-designed research studies. People who are depressed may find their mood lifting. Others may no longer feel afraid, angry, or anxious. In Counseling, people have a chance to talk things out fully until their feelings are relieved or the problems are solved. Clients’ relationships and coping skills may improve greatly. They may get more satisfaction out of social and family relationships. Their personal goals and values may become clearer.
