Counseling appointments are approximately one hour. We request that if you cannot keep your appointment, you notify us at least 24 hours in advance. Keeping your appointment, or calling in advance if you cannot, is important as it demonstrates your commitment to the counselling. We do understand unforeseen scheduling difficulties so if you do need to reschedule, we will be happy to assist you. We do reserve the right to terminate counseling if there are repeated cancellations, repeated failures to complete homework, or a general lack of initiative or willingness to make progress. 

Homework is a very important part of the biblical counseling process. Homework is somewhat unique to biblical counseling and it is one of the reasons why this type of counseling is so effective. It continues the counseling process between sessions and teaches you how to find your own help for the future. Therefore, you will most often be required to spend time each week on homework. When done consistently the work you do at home will speed up the counseling process. 

There is no charge for counseling appointments. However, any contribution you make to Trinity Baptist Church for counseling services will enable us to expand the counseling ministry.

There may sometimes be small costs for recommended resources such as tapes, books, and pamphlets.

In order to achieve lasting biblical change over problems, it is vital that you become established in a consistent Christian walk. The Lord has provided the local church to assist in this process. If you are not consistently involved in a local church, we strongly encourage you to attend at least one service a week at Trinity Baptist Church. If you are part of a local church on a consistent basis, the assistance of your church’s leadership is requested so that you may more fully receive the benefit of all the spiritual resources given by God.
