Counseling for Parishioners that Respects Our Faith

Our parish is pleased to begin collaborating with Rejoice Family Apostolate (RFA) to meet the counseling needs of our parishioners. The apostolate?s professional counselors are educated in and live the Catholic faith. The Director, Chris Stravitsch, LPC, LMFT, will provide individual, marriage, and family counseling services to parishioners and their families onsite at the parish and at other nearby locations. Parishioners can make use of a discounted sliding scale fee.
There are many reasons for seeking counseling, such as:

To heal pain that is felt in your heart, mind, body, or spirit.
To become free from personal bondage, fears, or guilt so that you may fulfill your responsibilities and grow in virtue.
To discover yourself and become a better ?you? so that you may follow your dreams, respond to God?s calling, and celebrate the gift of your life.
To heal and strengthen relationships with loved ones in order to be more deeply and firmly united in life and love.

For more information on counseling services for St. Cyril parishioners or to schedule an appointment please call Chris Stravitsch at (832) 900-2082, email RejoiceApostolate@gmail.com, or visit www.RejoiceApostolate.com.
