Strengthening Ministry Couples: Marriage Support for Those who Serve and Lead
We understand the unique challenges that ministry couples face, including time away from one another, high stress roles and leadership responsibilities. With firsthand experience as a military chaplain spouse for over 10 years, Brittany Henricks brings a deep understanding of the realities many ministry couples may face. We are so grateful for the many sacrifices you make as a couple and family. Let us help you strengthen your marriage while honoring your service and faith.
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.
