Christian Counseling...

You've taken a great first step. We hope we can help you in your search for someone to help. IndyChristian.com cares, and we're anxious to help if we can, by listing a wide variety of available resources.

However please understand we are in no way able to, or attempting to, evaluate the quality of these resources. It is YOUR obligation to evaluate their qualifications or suitability for your particular need... and choose wisely. You may also want to consider highly qualified secular counselors found elsewhere.

Hot-lines & Other Resources:
  • Hot-lines (social services -- not necessarily Christian resources)
  • Addictions (social services -- not necessarily Christian resources)
  • Pregnancy

The Christian (Yellow) Phonebook lists these counselors. [We understand that Christians among them who have signed a statement of faith are clearly indicated by use of a dove, fish or cross symbol.]

The Christian Blue Pages lists these counselors. [We understand that all have signed a statement of faith.]

Certified training facilities for Christian counseling includes:


And here are some topical Bible passages addressing how you may feel today.

Note: If you know of other resources for those who might be seeking Christian counseling, please advise us.

  • Local Associations:

    While there are a number of independent psychiatrists, psychologists, pastors and other trained counselors, there is yet no general association of Christian counselors that we're aware of here in the Greater Indianapolis area. If you know of such associations, please advise us. We believe that such a coalition could provide great added value through fellowship and accountability. Such a group could also provide a platform for optional Christian arbitration that would be helpful in certain situations. If you are a trained Christian counselor and would like to participate in such an association, please advise us.

  • NATIONAL LINKS OF INTEREST
  • National Association of Nouthetic Counselors
  • Family Dynamics -- Contact Dr. Andrew Boswell, Indianapolis Region
  • IABC.net
