Biblical counseling

Providence Soul Care is the biblical counseling ministry of Providence. Our counselors bring Scripture and the good news of Jesus to bear on real struggles, helping individuals and couples know and trust Christ in the middle of them.

“…the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction.”
2 Corinthians 1:3–4 (ESV)
What soul care is

Scripture applied to the heart

Soul Care offers personal, Scripture-based help with struggles such as suffering, conflict, anxiety, addiction, grief, patterns of sin, and challenges in marriage or parenting. The goal is to help you understand your situation in light of Scripture and take genuine steps of faith and obedience, with the support of your church family.

What it is not

Soul Care is not medical care, psychiatry, psychology, or licensed therapy, and our counselors do not diagnose mental illness. Biblical counseling can continue alongside medical or clinical care, and we encourage you to seek that care when it's needed.

What to expect

Progressive, steady growth

  2. Your story

    Your counselor begins by listening to your story and your concerns.

  3. The heart

    Sessions include prayer, conversation, and Scripture, addressing what you love, fear, believe, and worship.

  4. Next steps

    You'll leave with practical homework. Meetings are usually weekly at first, then every other week. However, these are always assessed case-by-case.

Common questions

Who can receive counseling?

Soul Care currently prioritizes members and regular attendees of Providence. We counsel adults, couples, and children or teens (with a parent or guardian involved and an advocate present at every session). Those who aren't Christians are welcome if they're willing to engage with Scripture, though our counsel is explicitly Christian.

What does it cost?

Counseling is free for members of Providence. For non-members, sessions are $75 each. We do not accept insurance or provide documentation for insurance reimbursement.

Who are the counselors?

Our counselors are trained members of Providence serving under the oversight of church leadership. Their training ranges from lay counselors to counselors certified through the Association of Biblical Counselors (ABC).

Is counseling confidential?

Conversations are handled with care and discretion. Church leadership may be involved when there are concerns about safety, abuse, harm to self or others, or serious unrepentant sin. When counseling ends, ongoing care continues through the wider church body.
