If a person is experiencing difficulty in their spirituality, they may benefit from counseling. Some therapists and counselors specialize in religious denominations and beliefs. Depending on what the person is experiencing, they may seek therapy from a person who more fully understands their religious or spiritual beliefs.
Available Treatment Options
Counseling interventions include offering a safe, validating space for people to question their beliefs, mindfulness interventions for self-discovery, or existential interventions for assisting folks in grappling with life’s “big questions.”

Even though we need help, we may feel skeptical about...
