Texas Spiritual Counseling provides pastoral counseling and clinical spiritual care. The work focuses on grief, faith questions, moral injury, spiritual distress, hard decisions, disaster exposure, and the parts of a crisis that need language before they are forced into the wrong category.
Yes, for clients who are specifically seeking Christian counseling.
The work can include Christian faith, scripture, prayer, theology, church experience, spiritual struggle, anger at God, or questions of calling and meaning when the client wants that included.
It is also not limited to Christian clients.
