Mental health and spiritual well-being often go hand in hand yet finding support that respects both can be challenging. Christian Counseling and Wellness Services (CCWS) at Monticello Baptist Temple is addressing this unique need by launching services on January 5, 2026. This new offering aims to provide compassionate, faith-based support for individuals and families seeking guidance, healing, and growth.
What to Expect from the New Counseling Services
The counseling services at Monticello Baptist Temple will focus on integrating psychological care with Christian principles. This approach respects the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—and offers a safe space for those facing life’s challenges.
Key features include:
Faith-centered counseling: Therapists, at your request, will incorporate biblical teachings and prayer as part of the healing process.
Experienced professionals: Licensed mental health professionals with training in mental health and Christian approaches will lead sessions.
Individual and group options: Services will be available for one-on-one therapy, couples, families, therapy groups, and support groups.
Confidential and welcoming environment: The setting will ensure privacy and a non-judgmental atmosphere for all clients.
This combination of professional expertise and spiritual care can help clients find peace, clarity, and renewed hope.
Why Choose Christian Counseling & Wellness Services?
Many people seek counseling that aligns with their faith because it offers unique benefits:
Shared values: Therapists understand the importance of faith in decision-making and healing.
Spiritual guidance: Biblical wisdom can provide comfort and direction alongside therapeutic techniques.
Community support: Being part of a faith community can reduce feelings of isolation and encourage accountability.
Holistic healing: Addressing spiritual needs often enhances emotional and mental health outcomes.
For example, someone struggling with anxiety might find strength in prayer and scripture while learning coping skills from a mental health professional. This dual approach can create a stronger foundation for lasting change.
Wellness Services Beyond Counseling
In addition to counseling, CCWS at Monticello Baptist Temple will offer wellness programs designed to promote overall health and balance. These may include:
Stress management workshops: Techniques such as meditation, breathing exercises, and faith-based reflections.
Nutrition and lifestyle coaching: Guidance on healthy living that honors the body as a temple.
Support groups: Peer-led groups focusing on grief, addiction recovery, marriage enrichment, and more.
Spiritual retreats and Christian Life Coaching: Opportunities to deepen faith and rest in God’s presence.
These programs aim to equip individuals with tools to maintain well-being in everyday life.

Real-Life Impact of Faith-Based Counseling
Consider the story of a local family who faced marital struggles and turned to Christian counseling. Through counseling sessions that combined prayer, scripture study, and communication skills training, they rebuilt trust and improved their relationship. This example shows how faith-based counseling can offer practical solutions grounded in spiritual support.
Similarly, individuals coping with grief have found comfort in support groups where shared faith creates a sense of belonging and hope. These experiences highlight the value of counseling and wellness services that honor both emotional and spiritual needs.
