Christianity by design is counter culture in many respects in this post-christian era. Most who hold to this belief system are most comfortable working with a practitioner who follows their values and understands biblical mandates even better than they do at times. Good Christian Counseling provides the safety and security of not having to sift through advice and recommendations to be sure they align with the base of their beliefs.
While comfortable working with people of all faiths, from their own belief systems, when working with Christian clients from a Christian world view clinicians can utilize prayer work, biblical justification for specific issues, site examples from the Bible of others who had dealt with similar issues and the outcomes of specific choices, and pointing to more eternal issues and perspectives that supersede challenging temporal problems.
