Counseling

Here to listen. Here to help.

Christ’s Church of the Valley recognizes that no one is exempt from life’s problems. We may need to talk with a pastor or a counseling professional in times of brokenness, grief, marital stress, addictions, or emotional/relational issues.

Senior Pastor, Brian Jones, is unable to meet with people for pastoral counseling. Instead, he directs all pastoral guidance requests to the trained and gifted pastors on staff. If you have a struggle that you'd like to discuss, please send an email to pastoralcare@ccvlive.com.

Acknowledging there are situations beyond the expertise of the pastoral staff, the church recommends seeking help from a professionally-trained counselor who can provide guidance, assistance, and healthy solutions in a biblically focused environment.

The following therapists have extensive experience and align themselves with biblical truth:
