A Counseling Service at First Baptist Church?

by Curtis Freed

Certainly! Since the early 1990s... It has not been very vocal or visible recently but it is present, operational, and available to members of the church and Sunday School, as well as their families. Services are provided on request by members and for non-members upon referral by the ministerial staff.

The counseling ministry provides assistance for a variety of problems or difficulties: depression, anxiety, marital or other relationship problems, parent/child concerns, self-esteem issues, addictions, codependency, or stress. This service can provide the help and support that you need.

All services are provided by an experienced licensed professional therapist. All sessions and information is confidential--consistent with current HIPPA law. For more information or to utilize the service, call 664-6070 (a confidential voice mail that is answered by therapists not church staff). Watch the Evangel for further articles and information.
