Ethical Clarity for Christian Mental Health Professionals
Christ in Private Practice is a professional platform for Christian mental health clinicians who want to integrate faith into private practice with integrity, discernment, and confidence.
It is a place for thoughtful examination, principled decision-making, and steady leadership at the intersection of faith, ethics, and clinical practice.
Practicing Faithfully Requires More Than Good Intentions
Christian counselors face unique professional challenges:
How do I integrate my faith without crossing ethical lines?
How do I remain biblically grounded while serving clients of differing beliefs?
How do I market my practice honestly and transparently?
How do I make sound business and clinical decisions without fear, confusion, or pressure from culture, colleagues, or trends?
Christ in Private Practice exists to help clinicians think clearly, practice responsibly, and move forward with confidence rather than uncertainty.
What We Mean by Ethical Clarity
Ethical clarity is not limited to codes and compliance. At Christ in Private Practice, ethical clarity means helping clinicians navigate faith in private practice across clinical care, business decisions, marketing, scope of practice, and professional responsibility.
This includes ethical faith integration, sound business practices aligned with professional standards, and clinical competence in areas where physical and medical factors may impact mental health. Ethical practice requires discernment not only in what we believe, but in how we assess, communicate, refer, and lead.
