Therapy to Clergy and Clergy Families

 

               The same therapeutic and consultative services offered to the general public are also offered to Clergy and Clergy Families.  This is a specific niche of a pastoral counseling center which we value greatly.  We are trained theologically, and have a unique perspective to assist with pastoral or family dynamics of those who serve in ministry.  Years of sitting with clergy and clergy families allows us to minister to those who minister.   Pastoral Identity and vocation often have personal and familial ramifications which require self care and focus – this self care often does not come by accident – it has to be intentional.  Clergy often are a vital part of the faith community and broader community yet often due to multiple factors find isolation as a part of ministry. 

Our connection to Clergy is pastoral, consultative, therapeutic and collegial.  We often have the privilege of sitting with clergy and clergy families as they find meaning, connection and healing to improve the way they minister.  Our goal and mission is that as we assist clergy become stronger and healthier, they in turn will better enable their faith communities to emerge with strength.  Healthier Clergy and Clergy Families create healthier faith communities.  Healthier faith communities create stronger communities and a stronger community brings health to our world.
