Get Christian Counseling in Charlotte, NC

You may not be sure what the term Christian counseling means. You may wonder if it means the counselor will be preachy or judgmental. Does this mean we only reference the Bible to help you?

Christian counseling can mean different things to different people. At Bareiter Counseling, we see our role as professional therapists who have a deep Christian faith that is the foundation of our worldview. We see life, struggles, and healing through this lens. If you desire, we can include questions about how your faith or worldview integrates into your life. We are open to having scripture and prayer as part of your sessions.

If you are not religious, have given up on organized religion, or do not identify as Christian in the traditional sense of the word.

We will never impose our Christian perspective on you or your family. In therapy, we love discovering your beliefs and hearing how your worldview can help you in your journey of growth and healing. We want to learn your views to see the world through your eyes to the best of our ability.

Have you been judged, excluded, or hurt by other Christians or the church? Many people have been damaged intentionally or unintentionally by organizations or individuals who call themselves Christian.

We are very aware of the many people who have been wounded by Christians or in churches and families. Those whose own undealt with wounds may have come out in spiritual abuse towards you or someone you love. We welcome walking with you through healing from this insidious form of abuse.

Have you been to someone calling themselves a Christian counselor but have come away feeling it was unhelpful or damaging? Perhaps the counselor you saw seemed ill-equipped to handle your concerns.
