Two professors at Evangelical Seminary discuss the nuanced but important distinction between counseling and therapy. If you are considering a Masters degree in counseling or therapy, it's important to understand how these differences may shape both the degree you pursue and your future career path.

This video is produced by the Marriage and Family Therapy Department at Evangelical Seminary.

Thank you. I realize from this video that I'm not interested with working with people at the level of therapy. I think I'm more interested in being a counsellor.

This is so awesome! You bring out the very reason of helping others. Spiritual connection is a must!This is so beautiful

This was no help whatsoever. Instead of explaining the various differences between the two, he just dismissed counseling as a whole and then turned the video into a religious lecture. I recognize that he's in the Christian therapy field but if you're gonna explain the differences from a Christian perspective, say so in the title. Us non Christians would like to be educated on secular subjects from a secular angle.

I learned that Counselling is about helping people with usual life difficulties and therapy is about treating people with mental illnesses.

"Counselor" was used in reference to Jesus. The distinction between counselor and therapist was not quite clear for me.

Systemic in stead of individualistic care is also practiced by secular counselors and therapists. I do think that most professionals now practice care for the individual as part of the whole. I am a professional counselor and what was explained as the role of a therapist, is what I do.

As Christians, it is not our wisdom but rather God's wisdom and when God steps into a situation everything changes. We are merely the agents of change. This is how I would distinguish between Christian and secular mental health care.

No offense but if we all believed in God we wouldn't need therapy
