Pastoral counselors are unique in that they are able to offer a faith based dimension to the traditional psychotherapy approach. 

For some this is a very important aspect of the healing process; others may not wish to involve faith issues.  In either case, a pastoral counselor is a very compassionate professional who views his or her role as a minister of healing, as well as a therapist. 

Incorporating aspects of faith together with human behavioral sciences provides a rich environment for the healing of mental and emotional distress, and works toward the achievement of wholeness and health.

At PCSM, our therapists provide an approach to therapy, which integrates spirituality and psychotherapy in a fundamental and implicit manner, creating a safe, open, non-judgmental, caring, and sustaining environment.  In this context,  our clients may find the freedom and means to achieve the highest potential of well being.
   
Through an attitude of profound respect, acceptance and care for the individual person and relationships, our clients are able to begin attaining greater self-esteem, dignity, hope and healthy, nurturing relationships.  We believe, and have found, that our ministry fosters deep-seated and long lasting healing, change and growth toward personal wholeness.

PCSM is certified by the
American Association of Pastoral Counselors (AAPC) as an accredited service center.
