The Des Moines Pastoral Counseling Center has a long and respected history in the Des Moines community.
It is one of the largest counseling groups in central Iowa.
The Center was established in 1972.
It is an independent, not-for-profit, community-based organization, and has no affiliation to a faith group or any other organization.
In 1972, Dr. Ray Martin, an associate pastor at First United Methodist Church, had an idea for an expression of ministry that was developing across the country, yet new to our community - a spiritually-sensitive counseling ministry.
The Center is an independent not-for-profit organization, dedicated to providing quality, affordable counseling to adults, adolescents and children, couples and families.
The Center's mission is to bring understanding, hope and healing to persons of all ages through counseling and education.
The Center was organized in 1972 and has grown to become one of the largest counseling groups in central Iowa, serving over 2,400 clients annually.
The Center also provides educational opportunities for mental health and religious professionals.
The Pastoral in our name is the traditional name for counseling that integrates therapy with a client's values and/or faith.
It also refers to how Center counselors respectfully accompany their clients through the transitions and crises of life's journey.
Center counselors seek to offer healing for the whole person and see each dimension - body, mind, and spirit - as worthy of care.
Pastoral counseling is psychotherapy that takes seriously the spiritual dimension of a person while working with individuals, couples, and families to resolve emotional or relational problems.
