Pathways Counseling Center
Pathways Counseling Center is committed to creating conditions for God to work in the midst of human brokenness. The counseling process is one tool that God may use to bring about change, healing and restoration.
While counseling occurs in a safe, confidential environment, we also presume that movement toward wholeness takes place in the larger context of a supportive community. We believe that an individual’s physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual lives are intimately connected. Therefore, we give attention to these areas by assessing health habits, biological factors, medication, spiritual beliefs, social support, etc.
