Disclosure for Informed Consent
What to Expect
- GraceRenewal provides counseling support through 2-4 weekly,
multi-phased, two hour sessions.
- While we support the complex treatment methods sometimes needed to
meet counseling needs, GraceRenewal Counseling does not use the term
“therapy” or “psychotherapy” to define or represent the counseling we
offer.
- Counselees can expect our counseling to be Scripture supported,
pastoral, and appropriately friendly, and to increasingly become a
teacher-student relationship for learning grace concepts.
- In order to help maximize our time and to help assure that
our specific goals for counseling are accomplished, pets or young children
should not be present during counseling sessions.
- Persons taking antidepressants are welcome but may not find our counseling to be
helpful.

CONFIDENTIALITY
- Confidential information obtained
during the pastoral counseling relationship is protected, privileged
communication, and all records are stored, handled, or disposed of in a
way that assures their security and confidentiality. (The limitations of
confidentiality include: to prevent a clear and immediate danger to a
person or persons; when child abuse is suspected or apparent; and in legal
proceedings where pastoral counselors do not have the privilege.) Also,
the specific content of communications with a client under eighteen years
of age is confidential; however, the minor's guardian(s) have a right to
receive general information on the process of the treatment.

________________________
GraceRenewal Counseling
- provides support for learning how to read the Scripture in order to hear God communicate Truth to us,
- is based on the belief that
- God's Love for us is unconditional,
- his interest in every detail of our life is intense and passionate, and
- his commitment to our health and happiness is unfailing, and that
- at the root of brokenness and unhappiness is unmet needs, spiritually and of the heart (mind, emotions, and will), and that
- recovered health and happiness is not the result of what we can do to work on ourself, but of what we will allow God to do in and for us.
