• • Counselors with this training may have strong empathic abilities and can become aware of an other's emotions or intentions, over a short span of time. This gift can take the form of feeling the hidden distress to an extent that is difficult for other types of counseling methods to comprehend. Furthermore, the Christian Counselor is most likely, of all the types, to demonstrate an ability to discern the areas of need in each individuals temperament.  What is known as “words of knowledge” may well be an exceptional discerning ability. Such  intuition is found frequently in the Christian Counselor, and can extend to people, things, and often events. With the godly use of these gifts, a Pastoral/Christian Counselor may encourage others with great insight!

  Pastoral/Christian Counselors focus on human  thinking in terms of ethical values, and come easily to decisions. The small number of Christian Counselors is regrettable, since Christian Counselors have an unusually strong desire to contribute to the welfare of others and genuinely enjoy helping their counselee’s. 

  Laurie Mendez, works quite intensely with those close to her, quietly exerting God’s positive influence. As a trained therapist she has great depth of personality; Christian counselors, are themselves, complicated, and can understand and deal with complex issues and people.
