Specialist Christian Pastoral Counselling
Many people conduct pastoral counselling, but only a select few can call themselves a specialist based on a post-graduate qualification.
Specialist Christian pastoral counselling focuses on specific issues to help a person address a particular challenge, such as stress management through taking action and reviewing behaviour. In counselling, which is typically shorter-term than therapy, the client is taught to address their challenges through spiritual growth, guidance, support, techniques and by making sensible lifestyle changes.
When should you see a specialist Christian pastoral counsellor?
When you…
- Have specific issues or short-term challenges.
- Want to learn coping skills to help better manage stress and improve relationships.
- Are facing life transitions and adjustments.
- Are coping with addiction issues.
- Are looking for someone who can guide and support you as you learn to recognize problems and formulate healthy solutions.
Lizette and Craig, who have written acclaimed Christian pastoral counselling courses, workshops, webinars and seminars which are in use both nationally, and internationally are standing by for you!

- Have reason to believe that past situations are affecting your life.
- Have identified a challenge, such as depression, that is affecting your spiritual or emotional well-being.
Pastoral Therapy
Therapy, which focuses on feelings and experiences, is a highly effective approach to solving various challenges. In therapy, the focus is on how a person’s spirituality, thoughts and behaviour affect the client’s interaction with their world and worldview. Having established this, the focus shifts to optimal biblically-based functioning and world engagement.
Therapy aims to help people grow in spirituality, reach personal goals, understand and resolve destructive patterns and behaviour, regulate thinking, enhance productivity, improve emotional responses and have generally more satisfying relationships with self, others and God.
Lizette, having a post-graduate qualification in pastoral therapy, is an in-demand therapist who has been teaching others pastoral therapy for years and is waiting to walk with you, the road to wholeness.

A Counsellor’s Counsellor
Who counsels the counsellor? As counsellors, we are constantly exposed to client’s callouts for help as well as narratives of pain, turmoil, confusion and even abuse. When last did a client book a few sessions because of their blissful, inspiring and complete life? Client narratives are taking their toll on you as a counsellor, reach out and allow either of us to help you restore and refresh.

Improving Emotional Intelligence
Some psychologists, such as Goleman, claim that EQ is more important than IQ. Something to think about…
The Cambridge Dictionary describes emotional intelligence as, ‘The ability to understand the way people feel and react and to use this skill to make good judgments and to avoid or solve problems.’
Emotional intelligence is widely regarded as the best predictor of success in life. No matter how emotionally intelligent a person is, there is always room to develop and grow. Why would you not want to do this course?
