This video is from the 2021 Thrive & Cultivate conference, their first year of bringing pastors and church leaders to the table to hear and learn more about mental health. This topic shares how pastors who are working with individuals or families that need more clinical care can make referrals to a counselor. Further, as Christian counselors, it is our job to connect clients who want more support within their faith with Christians, pastors, and ministries that can support our clients.
