Many people ask us: Should I try counseling?  Is it worth it?  Will it actually help?  As the world warms to the idea of therapy, it also requires investment -- money, time, and energy.  So… is it worth it?

Jesus & Therapy: Are they friends or enemies? I regularly hear from colleagues & clients: “Why would I open the Bible in counseling?” or “What does God have to do with mental health?”
