How is pastoral counseling different from other forms of counseling ?
Pastoral Counselors are professional counselors sensitive not only to relational and emotional issues, but to spiritual and ethical issues as well. Whether WPCS s counselors are clergy or laity, all bring both psychological and spiritual frames of reference to their work, ensuring a wider path to wholeness and health. What are the qualifications of our pastoral counselors? Our counselors qualifications include memberships in the American Association of Pastoral Counselors and the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, National Association of Social Workers, state certifications and licenses, and denominational endorsements. Counselors and interns receive supervision and continuing education to further enhance their professional competence.
