Christian Counseling – Therapists and Counselors in Blacksburg, VA

Christian counseling focuses on combining a client’s faith with various counseling/therapy approaches.It draws from biblical teachings to promote mental and emotional health.

Christian counselors at Thriveworks Blacksburg will incorporate scripture and its teachings to offer guidance when you’re facing challenges or crises. Sometimes the integration of faith with therapy may be the missing piece in finding successful treatment. A Christian counselor can offer therapy in ways that respect your faith. Reach out today to get started.

Who Can Benefit from Christian Counseling?

For those whose faith is an important part of their life, any struggles or difficulties are not only emotional/mental health concerns, but spiritual ones as well. You want a counselor who not only acknowledges that, but understands, supports and addresses it in your therapy sessions. You want someone who can relate to you and to your deep faith.

For people of faith, there’s more to life than just getting through it. You’re also on a spiritual journey, so to speak, and as such you’ll have the usual challenges and hardships along the way. When our emotional and spiritual health are in sync, we’re in a place where guidance from a faith-based perspective can help us weather those tough situations and even grow stronger because of them.

What Can Christian Counseling Help With?

In this fast-paced, often secular world, one can get out of touch with their faith as the demands and stresses of daily life close in. BUT, this is the time that we need our faith more than ever! Our Christian counselor understands what you’re going through, and can help you to reconnect with their faith even while addressing the emotional and mental health issues you may be facing as well. Our Christian counselor is available and experienced to help with the following issues and more; all while enriching your faith and connection to God:

  • Marital or relationship problems
  • Parenting guidance
  • Mental illness
  • Grief and loss
  • Personal goal setting and development
  • Self-esteem issues
  • Substance abuse and addiction

Should I Pursue Christian Counseling?

Everyone can struggle with issues like grief or marital problems, but when a person’s suffering is more than they can cope with on their own, they will display signs that they need help. You may already have a strong basis for your faith, but counseling centered around biblical teachings may be a turning point in helping you overcome your mental and emotional distress.

  • Anxiety that interferes with your daily functioning

My Therapist is knowledgeable about my specific areas of struggle and does not generalize me, but rather helps me effectively process my concerns. Personality and demeanor are important to me, and Anne O'Hara is very relaxed and casual which has been pivotal in some breakthroughs that I have experienced. A Therapist that took a more clinical approach would have not been effective in getting me to communicate due to past trauma that Anne has helped me work through.

Anne is absolutely incredible. I've struggled with therapy in the past, and was never able to make much progress. Through consistently seeing an Anne I've been able to make high strides in my mental health, and have made so much progress.

My provider has been amazing to work with and has helped me with tools to navigate challenges more successfully. . . Thriveworks and the option for telehealth has been helpful, but I do find their scheduling policies to be too rigid for people with hectic schedules.

I cannot say enough good things about Darian. She is great support in times of need or in times where I just need maintenance sessions to stay accountable in my journey to a better me.
