Some Words of Welcome
I am Jeffrey Hamilton. I am a United Church of Christ Minister and Licensed Clinical Social Worker. For more than 20 years, I have been providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families as well as working with local congregations, teaching and writing.
I am a Pastoral Counselor. I am trained and educated in both psychotherapy and religion. I work to make counseling a time of learning and hope and a place of safety.
The counseling I provide comes from two perspectives:
As a licensed clinical social worker with years of experience, I am well versed in the complexities of counseling needs for individuals, couples, and families. I have education and training in treating a wide variety of life difficulties
Where Faith and Therapy Meet.
A Relationship That Values Your Story.
As a certified pastoral counselor, I am trained in understanding the deeper meanings of life, of religious faith and of personal values, and how they can affect and shape the counseling experience.
Many people do not come to see me for the pastoral perspective…they simply want the care I can provide. They learn that clinical care is enhanced through the perspective and skills that I bring.
My caring for you, as one hoping to live a fuller life, is there regardless of your life story, beliefs or difficulty faced.
Pastoral Counseling offers a unique approach to counseling which I believe you will find helpful and useful.
I hope these few pages give you the chance to learn more about who I am and what I do. If you would like to speak more with me to ask any questions or find time for an appointment, please call my office.
