Spiritual Counseling for Meaning and Inner Balance
Why Spiritual Counseling?
Some therapists tiptoe around your faith. Others treat it like the problem. Here, your beliefs are welcomed — not ignored, questioned, or sidelined.
Spiritual counseling with Lorna integrates evidence-based care with a respect for each client’s unique values and beliefs. Whether you’re seeking support in making sense of challenges, exploring meaning and purpose, or finding strength through your spiritual perspective — this is a space where reflection and healing go hand in hand.
What makes spiritual counseling different?
An Integrated Model of Christian Counseling.
Spiritual counseling at A.J.B. Counseling & Psychotherapy integrates the rigor of evidence-based methods with respect for faith. Interventions are grounded in approaches such as CBT, ACT, and trauma-informed care, ensuring that spiritual values are incorporated without compromising clinical precision.
Faith is respected, never imposed.
Scripture and prayer are available but always optional. The choice rests entirely with the client, allowing each session to reflect the balance you find most meaningful.
You set the tone.
Whether you prefer a faith-centered approach, a more traditional therapeutic structure, or a blend of the two, the framework is tailored to your comfort and goals.
