About Crossroads:
Crossroads is sustained by payments made by clients only.
Counseling is a scripture based, Christ centered ministry
that provides guidance to those in need of direction or a listening ear when faced with difficult life circumstances.
Some of the issues that we regularly counsel include:
- Marriage, parenting, and family issues
- Pre-marital counseling
- Depression, anxiety, anger, compulsions, phobias, grief, and other
emotional struggles
- Eating disorders
- Responding to various kinds of abuse and trauma (i.e., verbal, physical,
sexual, etc.)
- Addictions and other dominating life habits
- Assurance of salvation
- Dealing with guilt
How Much Does It Cost?
The Counseling Ministry is supported and able to continue operating
due to the money given by our clients for counseling sessions. Therefore, it is the responsibility of each counselee
to maintain operating costs of this ministry. A minimum payment of $60.00 is expected at each visit. If you
cannot afford to give this amount we will assist you in contacting a local church to discuss counseling sponsorship.
Some insurance is accepted.
What Is Biblical Counseling?
By biblical counseling we mean that your counselor is a Christian
with special training and experience in applying the truths of the Bible to life. Here, we believe that the Bible speaks
to all of life and to all of its problems, but sometimes it takes careful thought and prayerful wisdom to know how to make
those connections. We Believe that real change comes when people learn to see themselves and their problems in the context
of a living, vital relationship with Christ. This does not mean that you must be a Christian to profit from our counseling,
although we believe that deep and lasting change is brought about only by God himself.
Confidentiality
The confidentiality of your counseling will not be broken without
your permission unless you or another person is in imminent danger of physical harm, sexual abuse, or by court order.
In these sorts of instances we may be required to share that information with relevant persons.
It is our desire to never use the Bible in an artificial or
heavy-handed way.
Many are the plans in a
man's heart, but the counsel of the Lord will stand.
Proverbs 19:21
