Our Counseling Services


The Counseling We Provide:

First Refuge Counseling Department is ready to meet your various counseling needs. We are not experts on every facet of human suffering and affliction, however we are knowledgeable and experienced in many areas.

Here is what kind of counseling we are prepared to provide you:

Greif & Loss

Dealing with loss is very difficult. We are here to process with you however you need.

Trauma

There are various forms of trauma, and it impacts everyone differently. You are not alone. We are here for you.

Spiritual & Religious abuse

Spiritual & Religious abuse can painfully alter your life. It is disorienting and confusing to work through. We can help you sort through it.

Relational Abuse

Relational abuse in any form is devastating and wrong. It requires dedicated counselors capable of providing the appropriate care and saftey plans. We are willing to go the distance with you.

Depression

Depression affects millions of Americans. Helping someone with depression requires great patience and grace. We are willing to be with you when the darkness refuses to lift.

Addiction

Addiction is isolating and enslaving. We are committed to helping you find freedom and hope again. You are not alone. 

Church Hurt

Church leaders and members can and often hurt people. Leaders hurting leaders or members or vice versa. Whatever the case, we understand that “church hurt” is a real thing, and are ready to help you process your hurt and grievances in a healthy way.

Anger

Ahh. Anger... We all know it keenly. However, sometimes anger can really destroy and ruin lives. It can ruin careers or relationships. Managing emotions is a hard won battle and we know it isn't easy. We are ready to help you learn self-control and wisdom.

Anxiety

Anxiety can be debilitating, affecting not only our mental well-being but also our physical bodies. Many individuals experience mental and emotional stress, but also physical pain due to anxiety. We have safe and supportive space for you to process your fears and worries without judgment.

Self Harm

We understand the mental and emotional struggles that can lead someone to self-harm. It’s challenging to break the cycle because self-harm often provides the experience of “feeling something,” or a means toward comfort and escape. Regardless of the reason, our goal is to be present voice and supporter for you to find peace. 

Self Image

We are here to help you find peace with your body and value your self-image, regardless of whether it’s body image, shame, or negative self-worth.  

Burn Out

Burnout is a reality, and it's something few bounce back from. Our fast-paced society fosters an anxious and exhausting life. "Doing more" and/or "doing good things" is often associated with "success," but can lead to career-ending or life-altering burnout. We are here to help you recover from or avoid burnout.
