BECOMING WHOLE

MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL HEALTH

At Antioch New Orleans, we believe Jesus invites us into a journey of Becoming Whole—restoring our body, mind, and spirit into the fullness of who God created us to be. Mental and emotional health are an important part of that journey. Just as we care for our spiritual well-being, we also tend to our inner life so we can live in God’s peace and share it with those around us. On this page, you’ll find trusted resources to help you walk toward healing and wholeness.

Christian Counselors in New Orleans

Counseling is not one-size-fits-all. The right center or therapist for you may look different than for someone else. We encourage you to call a few practices, share what you’re hoping to work on, and see which therapist or approach they recommend. Finding the right fit can take a little time and a few trial options, so don’t be discouraged, it’s all part of the process.
