Christian depression treatment centers are unique in that they offer clinical care that is rooted in an understanding that, with God, there can be healing that goes far deeper than mere symptom relief. You’ll still get the trauma-based therapies and traditional modalities, but you’ll also find something more. It’s worth noting that this faith-based treatment is not a mandatory part of our women’s trauma-focused recovery center in Texas, but it is available to any of our clients who are interested.

What Is a Christian Depression Treatment Center?
Typically, a Christian depression treatment center isn’t that different from any depression treatment center in the U.S. except for one thing: optional “faith-based” activities involving the Bible, prayer, and spiritual counseling. You don’t have to be a Christian to opt in for these optional activities—as long as you have an open mind and are interested in learning more, you’re welcome to join in.
Many turn to Christian depression treatment centers because they have tried everything else, yet life still feels empty and without purpose. Whatever the reason for your interest, we welcome you to reach out and learn more about our compassionate, faith-based care.
How Faith and Clinical Care Work Together to Treat Depression
At its best, clinical care complements God’s word. With that in mind, we offer a variety of treatment modalities here at The Fullbrook Center. Specific trauma therapy modalities, for example, might include some combination of EMDR, breathwork, music and art therapy, and IFS therapy, among others. There’s even equine therapy! We also provide traditional modalities, such as CBT and DBT. Each client’s treatment plan is especially tailored just for her.
What does a Christian depression treatment program look like? For starters, you might receive cognitive behavioral therapy alongside daily devotionals. You may meet with a licensed therapist during the day and participate in spiritual counseling and group prayer in the evening. You’ll be encouraged to meditate on God’s word and His attributes.
The Bible is rich with comfort and hope for those who struggle with trials. One of the greatest resources of strength is the Psalms because there is no shortage of worshipful poetry about the human experience of sorrow, grief, despair, and feeling completely lost.
“Save me, O God! For the waters have come up to my neck … I am weary with my crying; My throat is dry; My eyes fail while I wait for my God.” – Psalm 69:1,3
“Be my strong refuge, To which I may resort continually … For you are my rock and my fortress.” – Psalm 71:3
“My flesh and my heart fail; But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.” – Psalm 73:26
“I am weary with my groaning; All night I make my bed swim; I drench my couch with my tears. My eye wastes away because of grief …” – Psalm 6:6-7
“In my distress I called upon the LORD … He heard my voice from His temple, And my cry came before Him, even to His ears.” – Psalm 18:6
