Sincere Christians often ask the question, "Should I go to counseling or therapy for my depression/anxiety/relational problems?" Within this question lie a few assumptions we need to clarify. One, what do we mean by counseling/therapy? Second, what are the negative stigmas that make us ask this question in the first place? And third, if we answer in the affirmative, how should we walk in wisdom when we seek out counseling? All this in today's episode.
