They felt the first stirrings of desire that filled them Read more

LDS Porn Addiction Presents Unique Problems

According to PornographyAddiction.com, over 40 million Americans visit porn sites on a regular basis. Those are people of all walks of life. Membership in a church and/or having been brought up in a religious household do not provide immunity to a person from developing an addiction to pornography.

LDS Depression Therapy: Find a Therapist Who Understands Both

LDS depression therapy is nothing to be ashamed of. The LDS gospel is one of joy, and often its members begin to think that because they embrace the joy of the gospel that they shouldn’t be suffering from depression. Many people even think that if they just pray harder and live more righteously that their depression will go away. But depression isn’t a spiritual condition, it’s a mental one. Depression is the result of a chemical imbalance in your brain. That imbalance can be the result of genetics, certain life events, illness, and a wide variety of other causes.

The Right LDS Child Therapist Is the One Who Fits Your Child

There are many things you need to consider when choosing an LDS child therapist to help your child. You don’t want to just choose the first child therapist that you come across. Children are particularly sensitive when it comes to therapy, and you don’t want to invite someone into their lives to talk to them and counsel them when you’re not sure that they will be a good fit. While adults tend to have the capacity to shrug off a bad relationship with a therapist and move on to choose a new one, that kind of resilience can be difficult for Read more

Professional help is available in many forms, for both the religious and the non-religious. LDS family counseling is a great place for Latter-Day Saints, or Mormons, to turn to.

LDS Marriage Counseling Can Help

Probably one of the oldest and greatest institutions, that of marriage, is threatened in our society today. LDS marriage counseling is a place to go to seek the help needed to sustain a good healthy union. Once reverenced as a sacred bond between a man and a woman, marriages are now struggling and being taken too lightly. It seems easier to walk away from responsibility, and simply easier to put aside vows that fight the obstacles in order to stay together and keep a marriage strong.
