Evangelistic Center Counseling Ministry

There Is Always Hope

Sometimes in spite of our best efforts to keep it all together, life still feels overwhelming. We understand that there are times in life where you just need a helping hand, a listening ear, or a shoulder to lean on. The mission of EC’s Counseling & Coaching Center is to walk with you every step of the way as you seek healing and emotional wholeness.

Regardless of the issue you bring to counseling, we strongly believe that God’s word is sufficient to answer any of life’s problems & questions.

When to Consider Counseling

The counseling ministry offered at Evangelistic Center works to connect our church family and the community with mental health resources.

Asking for help can be difficult, but there are times when life can seem overwhelming. You may feel anxious and out of control. You may be feeling stressed or fatigued. You may have lost a love one or trying to cope with a very difficult situation. You may feel sad more days than you can remember. Counseling is a safe and judgement- free space for you to speak to a professional that walks alongside you during the challenges of life.
