This Week on Soul Talks
How is therapy different from spiritual direction? How do I know which one I need? Understanding the difference is important, especially when there are not enough professionals to meet the growing mental health need.
Tune in for this episode of Soul Talks as Bill and Kristi explore the distinctives and overlap between therapy and spiritual direction. While mental health disorders require the skills and training of a therapist for diagnosis and treatment, many of the things we often associate with therapy can be discussed in spiritual direction. Emotions, anxiety, discouragement, relationship problems, distress, conflict, and hurt can be processed with a spiritual director in a prayerful, safe, and confidential space where you can be emotionally honest and receive the care and love of Jesus.
