A Safe Place for Teens to be Heard





Being a teenager brings unique challenges—academic stress, social pressures, identity questions, and emotional ups and downs. At Greater Things Counseling & Healing, we provide Christian counseling for teens rooted in biblical truth and proven counseling methods from a licensed professional counselor.


Our goal is to help teens navigate this season with confidence, responsibility, and faith.




Anxiety and Stress

School demands, peer pressure, and life changes can create overwhelming anxiety. Through Bible-based guidance and practical tools, we help teens manage stress and find peace in God’s promises.

Depression and Low Self-Worth

Feelings of hopelessness, isolation, or low self-esteem can keep teens from enjoying everyday life. Counseling can help uncover the root causes, renew their sense of purpose, and restore joy.

Friendship and Relationship Struggles

Conflict with friends, parents, or teachers can be painful and confusing. We help teens develop healthy communication skills and rebuild trust with those closest to them.

Identity and Self Image Issues

Many teens wrestle with questions about who they are and where they fit in. Through scripture-based counseling, we speak truth into their lives, helping them embrace their God-given identity.

Motivation and Academic Pressure

The pressure to perform can lead to burnout and discouragement. We work with teens to set healthy goals, improve focus, and manage their time while keeping their identity rooted in Christ.
