WE ALL NEED HELP SOMETIMES.
We have all at some point found ourselves in a difficult situation or time in our lives when we needed help beyond what we had in front of us. Maybe it’s marital troubles, an affair, a recent divorce or separation, the death of a loved one, difficulties with children, trauma, abuse, childhood wounds, addictions, mental health struggles, etc. etc. Here at Living Word we strongly believe that one way to get the help, healing, and breakthrough you need is through professional counseling, treatment centers, and support groups. We believe that God can and will work through these resources to lead you to a place of physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health.
We have done our best here to provide you with the names of Christian Counselors, treatment centers, support groups, and other resources that are current, open, and available to you in our area. It is our intention that this list will be updated as more options become available, and also to remove things from the list when they are no longer available. That being said, please do us a favor and keep us updated! If you know of someone or a group that should be on this list, then let us know. If you know of someone who is no longer open to new patients or groups that are no longer meeting, then please let us know so we can remove them from the list. Contact shannon@livingwordoakharbor.com with this info. Thanks for your help!
Also, if you are looking to meet with someone on a more informal level, you are more than welcome to check out our MENTORS. This is not a substitute for therapy though, and we still recommend seeing a counselor alongside having a mentor, if you need it.
