Westview Baptist Church: May we serve you?

WESTVIEW BAPTIST CHURCH PEER COUNSELING SERVICE

Seeking to assist individuals to become all they were designed to be.

Our purpose
The Westview Baptist Peer Counseling Service’s goal is to provide formal lay counseling that upholds biblical principles while employing current effective people-helping techniques. Through gentle directive guidance, our counselors seek to assist individuals in coming to a place of total health, so that they can become all that they were designed to be.

What to expect from peer counseling
From your first phone call to set up an appointment and through your first and subsequent sessions, you can expect to be treated with courtesy and respect. You can expect your peer counselor to be competent, well trained, and friendly. In turn your counselor will expect you to be an active participant in the sessions completing the homework, reading assignments, and exercises. Approaching each session with this attitude ensures that the maximum benefit is received.

Scope & limitations of peer counseling
Our peer counselors are not professional counselors and are of the Christian faith, helping, encouraging and equipping those in our care to live their lives as God has intended them to live.

Some areas in which we counsel are: depression, anxiety, money and fiscal management, marriage and youth counseling, addictions, food disorders, and post-deliverance counseling.

Financial policy
There is no set fee but in order to ensure that we are able to provide timely services, donations are accepted and receipts given. Through some form of donation, the client is enabled to take responsibility for their healing and growth.
