The mission of Canterbury Counseling Center is to offer a healing ministry to individuals and families in crisis. These services are offered by fully licensed mental health professionals who have received training in both theology and pastoral psychology. This background combines the healing wisdom of Christian teachings with traditionally accepted counseling practices. The ministry of Canterbury Counseling Center is available to all persons regardless of race, religious affiliation, or financial status. 

Pastoral counseling is a specialized form of psychotherapy that includes spiritual issues in the treatment process. The insights of theology and spirituality are integrated with the principles of the behavioral sciences to help individuals, families, clergy, congregations and other systems achieve wholeness and health.  By maintaining the best of theology and psychology, the sacred dimension of human life is affirmed and moves the focus of the counseling beyond crisis orientation to a change in lifestyle.
