Strengthening Military and Ministry Couples: Marriage Support for Those who Serve and Lead
We understand the unique challenges that military and ministry couples face, including time away from one another, high stress roles and leadership responsibilities. With firsthand experience as a military chaplain spouse, Emovere’s founder Brittany Henricks brings a deep understanding of the realities many ministry and military couples may face. We are so grateful for the many sacrifices you make as a couple/ family. Let us help you strengthen your marriage while honoring your service and faith.
Military Couples Therapy- Active Duty and Veterans
Couples with an active-duty military service member or veteran may experience many difficulties in their relationship due to heightened stress from deployments, combat related trauma, frequent moves, financial stressors, and parenting.
We offer therapy for military couples using Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy to restore connection and discover a new ability to face stressors as a united front.
Christian Marriage Counseling for Ministry Couples
We appreciate how the demands of life as leaders of a church or ministry can contribute to disconnection in couples and families. Long work hours for the spouse in ministry (or both if in dual leadership roles), struggles with work/life balance, issues of theology and beliefs about gender roles, parenting philosophies, spiritual practices, and issues of burnout or crises of faith can all impact the ability to remain emotionally connected and strong as a couple.
We provide Christian marriage counseling for pastors and ministry leaders integrating faith with the evidence-based practice of Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. Your life is dedicated to serving others, so let’s make space to care for you. Let’s get started.
