Faith-Friendly: Integrating Faith and Mental Health

We invite you to bring your Christian faith or spiritual beliefs, an invaluable resource, into the counseling office as you move towards your Higher Power’s vision for your life

At Guyton Counseling Services (GCS), our Faith-Friendly approach honors the importance of faith in your life. Whether you're an athlete, medical professional, first responder, busy professional, or part of a family, couple, or marriage, we provide counseling that respects and integrates your spiritual beliefs. This lens allows clients to choose how their faith informs their therapy, without prescribing any particular spiritual approach.

Faith-Friendly Counseling at GCS: An invitation to include your greatest resource

    What is "Faith-Friendly?"

    Often, counseling practices describe themselves as "Faith-Based," marketing to Christians alone. At GCS, we are "Faith-Friendly" because we can bring and welcome a Christian lens to the counseling office, but we also work with all walks of life, spiritual beliefs, religions, and ways of being. Our job is to meet you where you are, and we are here to include the resources you tell us are important in your journey.

  • Faith-Friendly Athletes

    "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." -2 Timothy 4:7

    GCS welcomes GCS athletes to bring their Christian faith to the counseling office and describe their road to the ultimate victory.

    Faith-Friendly First Responders

    "I will be with you and when you pass through the waters, they will not sweep over you, and when you walk through the fire you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel your Savior". - Isaiah 43:1-3

    First Responders often carry their faith on the job as invaluable resource in their work, and GCS invites GCS First Responders in therapy to do the same.

    Faith-Friendly High Achievers

    "Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him." - James 1:12

    High achieving professionals at GCS may find comfort in connecting their faith to their counseling goals, and GCS encourages our clients to use this resource.
