Faith-Works For Humanity

As a child, Johnny Doe had suffered physical and emotional abuse from his step-father. He came to us as an angry teenager and his single mother was at her wit’s end.  Johnny’s counselor helped him spew his anger and hurt about his childhood, then taught him how to use those feelings productively, in sports and in theater, as he began to learn to forgive instead of fight. Today, Johnny is doing better in school, attending church with his mom and siblings and making healthy, safer choices and friends.

Jane Doe couldn’t seem to keep a job for any length of time. Her employer sent her for three Employee Assistance sessions.  Jane and her counselor agreed that a doctor visit for possible medication might help, and it did. However, Jane’s insurance did not cover additional mental health counseling to augment the medication.  Faith-Works was able to provide Jane with many free, then many very-low-cost counseling sessions as she got back on her feet financially. Jane called us a few months ago: she has now had her job for two years, and reports a calm, happy and stable life.

John and his family are not covered for mental health counseling and yet they have decided they have to reach out for help. Through a phone call to 2-1-1 that offers referrals to those in need, John’s wife learned of Faith-Works and contacted us as we are uniquely positioned to offer very low-cost and even free counseling for entire families in this area.

Through counseling at Faith-Works, this husband, his wife and their children have learned how to effectively overcome the destructive aspects of PTSD. This man is now a productive member of his church, neighborhood and workplace. The children’s grades in school have improved and the eldest son has joined sports to work out his frustrated energies in a productive manner. Although this family remains in counseling, the positive changes that have occurred would not have been possible had Faith-Works not been in the position to provide the assistance they so desperately needed.
