…for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you. – Hebrews 13:5b

Sadly, even in homes where there is no hint of abuse or domestic violence, there may still be issues of abandonment or neglect. Because this kind of problem so often “flies under the radar,” so to speak, it frequently remains unaddressed until its effects begin to negatively impact other relationships, sometimes years down the line.

At Fair Counseling, we believe that you can overcome issues related to abandonment and neglect. Our team of professional counselors provides compassionate and faith-based counseling to those suffering from the effects of abandonment and neglect, helping them to begin the process of healing.

Call us at 804-302-0336 or request an appointment online to set up your initial risk-free consultation with one of our counselors.

Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained in the way of righteousness. – Proverbs 16:31

Many people look forward to phasing into their “golden years” – a season in which they may be able to devote more time to leisure activities, enjoying grandchildren, or serving in the community. However, the aging process can bring its own challenges and frustrations as well. Some people battle with age-related health concerns or don’t manage to transition very smoothly into retirement. Others watch their peers pass away and wrestle with the finality of life on this earth. At Fair Counseling, we are committed to supporting older adults and their families with whatever concerns they may face. With God’s help and with gentle counsel, we’ll walk with you and your loved ones through this next chapter.

Anger can be a necessary and useful emotion. It shows us that something is wrong and motivates us to act. Expressing anger in a healthy way, directing it towards controlled and positive change, and then letting it go are all part of a healthy relationship with anger. When left unchecked, anger can lead to behaviors we later regret, often hurting others and isolating us from those we love. If you or a loved one has difficult anger issues, Fair Counseling offers solutions for gaining control of powerful emotions so you can live a peaceful, Christ-filled life.

Find freedom from uncontrolled anger. Request an appointment online with one of our counselors for a risk-free consultation, or give us a call at 804-302-0336.

Life can be stressful, and sometimes, a little anxiety is a normal response that is easily worked through. For some, feeling stressed or anxious becomes a regular thing, maybe even limiting their ability to function fully. If you often find yourself feeling overwhelmed, nervous, or obsessing about things to the point of feeling out of control, you might be struggling with an anxiety disorder. Living a life that is too stressful is harmful to your mind and body and can affect your relationship with God and others. Don’t settle for a life that is less than what it could be. If you’re tired of the struggle, Christian anxiety counseling can help you calm the storms of your mind so you can reclaim your life and grow into all you are created to be.

If anxiety rules your life, we can help. Schedule an appointment online with one of our counselors or give us a call at 804-302-0336.

One of the leading causes of disability, according to the World Health Organization, is 350 million people worldwide.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health disorder that occurs after someone has experienced trauma, the threat of trauma, or even witnessed a traumatic event. Symptoms can include severe anxiety, flashbacks to the event, and unwanted and uncontrollable thoughts regarding the event.

Every person has a built-in fight-or-flight response that helps to protect them in dangerous situations. In the case of someone with PTSD, however, the fight-or-flight response is triggered in the body when situations or events merely remind the person of the trauma or whenever similar kinds of events occur. Even when the events or memories are less intense, the reaction can still be extreme.

Though it is normal for a person to experience disturbing memories and have trouble sleeping after suffering trauma, with time and good care, most people recover on their own. However, if the symptoms last for months or even years, then it is probable that the person has PTSD.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder does not always occur right away. It is quite possible for a person to develop PTSD months or even years after the trauma occurred, causing relationship problems and issues at work.

As Christians, we can often find comfort in Psalms. One of the most regarded is Psalm 22, a writing about the coming, suffering, and promise of Christ. Through this Psalm, we are told he has not despised or scorned the suffering of the afflicted one; he has not hidden his face from him but listened to his cry for help. If you’ve suffered a traumatic experience, Christian counseling for trauma recovery offers you a place to seek the many promises of Christ, one being compassion towards those who suffer and seek refuge in the Lord.
