Buddhist counseling is likely to focus on the causes of mental distress and using self-knowledge to cope with your response to them. The mental health professionals listed below specialize in treating Buddhists.

Your religious faith is vital to you. You want a mental health professional who supports your beliefs and provides advice steeped in your faith. All Counseling’s goal is to connect the hurting to the healers, and we understand your desire to strengthen your faith and mental health simultaneously. To help you find the faith-based therapist you need, we accept profiles from various vetted counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists and we ask them to identify whether they specialize in serving those in a specific religious faith. The below list is based on those profile responses.

I feel that the ideal client for me is someone who is currently working on his/her inner awareness and how this then affects his/her life externally.

I focus on body/mind meditat...

They seek therapy because something is not right in their lives and they want to find a better way. The ingredients to healing are found in these three elements. Whether it is through individual therapy, teen...
There are many reasons to seek therapy. The support of a therapist who is genuine, empathic, and non-judgmental can help you gain a better understanding of how your past experiences affect you today. Our identities are made up of that which is ours to own and that which others have impressed upon us. Therapy can help assist in sorting out what's yours, and what's yours to let go of, allowing...
