Women play countless roles. We’re mothers, spouses, professional women working on our careers while trying to look for ways to care for our loved ones and at the same time find meaning and accomplishment in our lives. Christian counseling provides a space for calm and quiet, where you can focus on growth, restoration, and taking moments to step away from the noise around you.

Depression and Anxiety

Feelings of depression and anxiety aren’t rare, in fact, these mental health conditions occur often and affect many. Women have a bigger chance of having to deal with anxiety at some point in their lives and are also more likely to suffer from a depression. Biological factors play a role here, which include conditions that are specific for women like postpartum depression. Christian Counseling offers different therapies to treat depression and anxiety and helps you to move in the direction of Christ and His light and peace.

Marriage and Relationships

One of the most searched terms on Google is “what do men want?”, but what women want is also among the leading search terms. Being in a relationship can be challenging because women and men have different ways of thinking, needs that vary, and ways of communication that can lead to conflict. If you’re going through a tough time we are here to support you. Faith-based counseling can help you to form powerful relationships that are rooted in Christ.

Addiction to love or sex

Not only men can be addicted to sex, women can also struggle with these issues. Addiction to pornography is more common for men, but love addiction occurs more frequently among women and this number is increasing. If this is something you are dealing with, we can support you in a non-judgmental and safe place where there is space for healing the wounds that caused your addiction. We will help you find your way to a life that aligns with your root values.

Pregnancy, Miscarriage And Infertility

Pregnancy

Expecting a child can have a big impact on your well-being, both physically and emotionally. Feelings of anxiety, depression or other health conditions that are related to pregnancy are things that countless women deal with. These feelings can get in the way of enjoying impending motherhood but your counselor can guide you through this unknown terrain in a way that will help you find peace and improve your well-being.

Infertility

Many women also have to deal with the pain of not being able to have a child and this can have an ill effect on both your self-image and your relationships with others. Often, women feel alone and unwilling or unable to share their feelings and difficulties they face with others, even people close to them. Sharing your emotions with a counselor you can trust and who is on your side can be invaluable.

Miscarriage

Losing your unborn child is a painful experience that women often bear alone. People around you don’t notice or don’t acknowledge what happened and the impact it has on your well-being. You can feel lonely and grieving can cause friction in your relationships and this can have lasting effects when the situation is not managed adequately. Grief counseling is something we offer at Los Angeles Christian Counseling. It aims to guide you to a healthy place for recovery without minimizing your loss.

Christian Counseling for women will give you the tools and support you need to heal through faith in knowing that Christ is the keeper of your purpose and your life.

Motherhood

Being a new mom is wonderful, but it can also be confusing, challenging and stressful. It can bring back issues from your own childhood and this can impact your own parenting styles. Managing this alone as a new parent can be difficult. Women’s Christian Counseling provides mothers at all stages of parenting with support.

Work and Career

Women often fill many different roles and at times we struggle to find a balance. Sometimes we might feel lost or stuck and unhappy with one or more aspects of our lives. If your professional life is challenging, or you feel like balancing your career and family is hard, or if you’re just looking for work counseling for women, we are here to help you.

Chemical Dependency

Addiction is something that can happen to anyone, depending on their circumstances. Coping with an addiction doesn’t mean you’re a bad person, but it does have an influence on many aspects of your life. We offer long-term, lasting solutions for people with a chemical dependency. We’re here to help you in this battle so you can go on to live fully and freely.

Eating Disorders

Women suffer from an eating disorder more often than men and issues are often related to body image, and connecting self-worth to beauty standards. Sexual abuse is also a major contributor and a staggering one in three women has experienced this. Christian Counseling will help you reveal these hurtful topics that lie at the root of your disorder while coaching you at the same time to learn to see yourself with kindness and love.

Crisis Counseling

We also provide a secure space for women to deal with experiences and emotions that are painful. These issues can be related to grief and loss, abuse, trauma or other things that prevent you from living fully. If you are experiencing a crisis in your life, or have in the past, we are here for you to guide you on your journey towards healing.

Spiritual Development

What does ‘being a Godly woman’ mean? Women often look for Christian counseling to help them look for answers to questions like these. If you’re struggling with topics of faith and desire to talk to someone about this, someone who understands these issues, Los Angeles Christian Counseling for women is here to guide you on your own path of spiritual growth, no matter where you are on your personal journey with Christ.

Sometimes we feel the pressure to be perfect, Christian women are no exception. We have long to-do lists that put a lot of pressure on us regarding how we’re supposed to present ourselves and truths we think we have to include in our beliefs. This can make us feel low sometimes as if what we’re doing is not enough and we are letting God down. He is patiently waiting for us, ready to lead us so we can be transformed into Christ’s likeness. To understand the promises and patience of God is very important. Taking steps towards a positive change in your life and aiming to do better is good, but you won’t have to do it alone. We’re here to do it with you in a God-honoring way.

We believe the Christian path is a journey and we feel compassion for those who are trying to grow. Through Christian counseling for women, we hope to give you guidance, hope and compassion for yourself on your own personal journey towards spiritual development and growth.

We’re not just here to help you deal with emotional and mental health issues. Our faith-based approach distinguishes us from other, secular counseling groups. Healing and newness in Jesus Christ are unique aspects that we offer and through His example, we learn how to love, live and be a woman of God.

We understand that a Christian woman’s path can be difficult sometimes. Pain, illness and other world pressures can make us vulnerable and more likely to fall into sin. We guide you on your quest for faith, virtue and a close relationship with God. It doesn’t matter where you are in life, we promise to offer you a space that is full of compassion, free from judgment, and one that leads you toward healing and a life filled with Christ.

God gives us answers and heal us in His time and we believe that you will receive the support that you need.
