Find a Therapist Who Works With Clients of Buddhist Faith

Home » Faiths Served » Buddhist » Page 37

Buddhists believe that meditation, spirituality, good deeds, and positive behavior can help a person achieve enlightenment. 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.
