The Role of Faith

Spirituality is an important part of wellness. As a Christian person of faith, I know that to be true in my own life. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, spirituality is referenced even in the language of my license, along with the mental, emotional, physical, social, and moral aspects of wellness. For a person of faith, their spirituality is usually a very significant part of their support system, and it is important to recognize that in the therapy process. Sometimes people of faith reference their spiritual values often in counseling and discussion of faith is woven throughout the therapy experience, and sometimes it is simply understood how much their faith means to them.  

Sometimes people come to counseling who have no spiritual background or perspective, and that is respected as well.
