How Christian Counselors Can Change The Lives Troubled Girls

Christian Counselors for Troubled Girls Artondale Washington WA 

With the popularity of Christian Counselors on the rise -- including among parents from the Artondale, WA area -- coupled with Christian residential treatment centers emerging throughout America, we at Clearview Girls provide the following analysis of Christian Counselors. Read on to find why we believe Christian Counselors are not only the best choice for Christian families but also secular and agnostic teens. 

The following is a review of what Christian Counseling services are and what they are not. What's more, it pertains to all Christian therapists, including outpatient, inpatient, and even church faculty. 


Christian Counselors for Troubled Teens in Artondale, WA 

As its designation aptly implies, Christian counselors for troubled teenage girls are licensed psychotherapists who integrate the teachings of Christ in their sessions with troubled teenage girls. 

Christian counselors for troubled teens are specially trained to diagnose, treat, and spiritually guide adolescents like their secular niche-specialist counterparts. 

While the integration of psychotherapy and theological faith in Christ has existed for decades, it is relatively new in the industry of mainstream psychotherapeutic troubled teen treatment. That being said, while more evidence is needed, several studies seem to prove the veracity of Christian counseling -- even when stacked against traditional secular therapy. For example, according to one report, Christian counselors are more likely to effectively treat adolescents from Christian homes than secular therapists are to treat a child from a secular family.  

Christian Counselors are often the option Christian parents choose to treat their troubled teenage daughter. While traditional therapy can certainly be effective, many faith-led moms and dads feel that implementing a spiritual component is just as important as diagnosing and psychoanalyzing mental illnesses. 

The History of Christian Counseling 

Christian counseling officially began in the late 1960s and early 1970s during the 'Biblical Counseling Movement' famously led by Jay E. Adams. 

Adams's 1970 book Competent to Counsel advocated a faith-based alternative to the era's homogenized secular field of psychiatry. 

2 Corinthians 3:9 “For if the ministry of condemnation has glory, much more does the ministry of righteousness abound in glory.”

Proof That Christian Therapy is More Practical Than Secular Psychoanaly (Christian vs. Secular Talk Therapy) 

Parents from Artondale, WA might be surprised to discover that there have been more than 100 metastudies analyzing whether Christian Counseling is as effective as nonreligious counseling. The outcomes might be even more surprising still! 

Below is a retooled article that a Christian therapist made to compare the effectiveness of the two distinguished modes of treatment. 

Romans 3:23 “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,”

As it turns out, including these analyses, Christians who received Christ-centered treatment had better outcomes than atheists who received nonreligious therapy. 

According to one AACC Christian counselor's blog post, religiously adapted treatments had much more significant spiritual impacts on the patients than secular treatments.

This was exceedingly evident in comparisons with no-treatment requirements and alternative-treatment prerequisites. Also, religiously tailored therapies were even starkly more helpful in improving patients' spiritual lives than were strictly similar secular therapies (g = .34 at post-test and g = .32 at follow-up).

Christian therapists, can, in other words, remain steadfast, look licensing boards, managed care corporations, and insurance companies in the eyes, and boast, "Christian accommodated treatments are just as effective or better than secular treatments in improving patients' symptoms, and they also do something for matched spiritual clients that secular therapists cannot: provide their patients with better spiritual well-being."

John 15:7 "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you."
