Gospel-centered counseling; best practice and skills-based training from professional therapists.

People don’t come to you with theology questions first.
They come exhausted. Anxious. Shutdown. Unable to eat. Unable to sleep.

And those symptoms cannot be ignored in the name of getting to the “real” work.

God created human beings as embodied souls. What happens in the soul impacts the body. What happens in the body affects the soul. Caring for someone’s physical and emotional symptoms is inseparable from caring for their spiritual wellbeing. This isn’t a concession to secular psychology. It is a theological conviction.

A caregiver who only offers spiritual solutions to physical suffering isn’t offering the whole gospel. Jesus himself came in bodily form and he healed bodies, not just souls.
The Redeemer Fellows Program equips ministry leaders to do this work in a boundaried, informed, and compassionate way. To recognize when someone’s physical and emotional symptoms need attention and to respond with both competence and care.

Mental Health Awareness Month is here.

A note from our Executive Director, Dr. Judy Cha.
“Healing happens when people feel truly seen and not rushed.”

This May, Redeemer Counseling is slowing down long enough to meet people where they actually are.

New resources for ministry leaders.
A devotional inviting every person into scripture and stillness.
A conversation about parenting well in the age of AI.

And throughout it all, care that is both clinically excellent and rooted in the gospel.

This is not just a campaign. It is an invitation for all of us, givers, counselors, ministry leaders, and neighbors, to slow down, pay attention, and be part of something that is quietly changing where we live, one person at a time.

Welcome to BE! We are so glad you are here.

In 9 months, you can change years of ministry.

The Redeemer Counseling Fellows Program is a 9-month cohort designed to prepare leaders for the mental health realities of modern ministry. It bridges the gap between pastoral care and clinical insight so leaders can serve with greater wisdom, confidence, and care.

Inside the program, fellows are trained in areas such as:

• First counseling encounters
• Reflective listening
• The GIFT framework
• Trauma-informed care
• Anxiety and depression
• Psychological disorders and medication
• Su***de intervention
• Grief counseling
• Addictions and unwanted sexual behaviors
• Couples counseling
• Abuse prevention and response
• Gender identity and sexuality
• Group dynamics
• When to refer
• And more

This is not a theology course.
This is not a counseling degree.

It is clinical literacy built for the realities of ministry and grounded in the GIFT framework from the ground up.

Applications are open. Link in bio.

1 in 4 pastors is struggling with their mental health. Most of them will never say it out loud.
Ministry leaders carry so much for their congregations. This post is for the people who want to carry something for them.
Save this. Share it with your small group, your elder board, or anyone who loves a pastor.

Mental health struggles are often present in the pews long before they’re ever spoken out loud.

Many people in our churches are carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and deep disappointment while still showing up, serving, smiling, and trying to hold it together. They trust God. They love the church. But they may not know if there is room to be honest about what they’re facing.

The truth is, spiritual leadership and mental health care are not in competition. People need both compassionate pastoral presence and wise, informed support.

That’s why we created the Redeemer Fellows Program.

This 9-month intensive equips ministry leaders with the clinical insight and pastoral tools to navigate the hardest conversations with wisdom, confidence, and care.

Because the people in your congregation don’t just need answers. They need leaders who know how to meet them where they are.

Applications are now open. Link in bio.

"I don't want to make a mistake and hurt someone out of a lack of understanding."
If you've ever said this — you're not alone. And you don't have to stay there.

Ministry leaders are sitting with suicidal disclosures, marital crisis, severe depression, grief, and trauma. Not occasionally. Every week. Most are navigating these moments without the clinical grounding to do so safely — not because they don't care, but because the training was never there.

The Redeemer Fellows Program was built for exactly this. 9 months. The GIFT framework. A cohort of leaders who get it.

Space is limited. Applications are now open.

Resilience isn’t about avoiding stress. It’s about how you move through it.

The American Psychological Association defines resilience as the ability to adapt well in the face of difficulty. That adaptation is shaped by three core areas:

Personal outlook and mindset
Not about forced positivity, but how you make sense of what you’re facing. Psalm 13 shows us that honesty and trust can coexist. Hope is rooted in who God is, not just in changed circumstances.

Social supports
You were not meant to carry stress alone. Scripture reminds us in Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 that support and community are essential.

Adequate coping skills
Resilience is strengthened by how you respond to stress. This can include distraction, releasing built-up emotion, and self-soothing practices that help regulate your body.

Stress is not always the problem.

Some stress disrupts your internal world.
Some stress develops it.

Distress pulls you out of alignment. It often reinforces fear, shame, or depletion.
Eustress, while uncomfortable, can expand your capacity and strengthen what is being formed in you.

Both matter. Both require attention.

At Redeemer, we don’t approach stress as something to simply avoid or manage. We seek to understand what it’s revealing, and how it’s shaping the person beneath it.

Not all tension is harmful.
Some of it may be inviting growth.

The question is not just, “How do I reduce this?”
But, “What is this doing in me?”

What if your stress wasn't the end of your story?

Joseph was betrayed, enslaved, and imprisoned. On paper — pure distress. But God was at work the entire time.

Genesis 50:20 reminds us: what others intend for harm, God can use for good.

What if the tension is where God meets you? Swipe to explore.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month — a time to pause, listen, and show up for the people around us.

If someone you love discloses a experience of sexual assault, it can be hard to know what to say. The most important thing? You don't have to have the right words. You just have to be present.

Here are 10 ways to respond with care, compassion, and dignity. 👆

And if you or someone you know needs more support, our therapists are here. Read more at the link in our bio.

Easter reminds us that the story doesn’t end at the cross.

The resurrection is where hope breaks through. Where what felt final is no longer the end. Where new life becomes possible.

For those of us caring for others, it can be easy to focus on what’s broken, what’s stuck, what hasn’t changed. But Easter shifts our perspective. It invites us to see possibility again.

Healing is not rushed, and it’s not forced. But it is possible. Not because of us, but because God is still at work.

This is the hope we carry into every space, every conversation, every relationship.

Take a moment today to reflect.
Where is God inviting renewal in your life?
In your relationships?
In the people you’re walking with?

Let the resurrection reshape how you see what’s possible.
