experience, that I can lend hope, encouragement and support. And, I have learned,
as my sponsor told me years ago, to be a sponsor, be prepared, because we are dealing
with someones life, I consider this to be of upmost importance...believe it!"

As a Registered and Licenced (and up until last year Ordained Christian Counsellor) Clinical Therapist I can tell you that you frequently get what you pay for. It depends on what you need. Pastors (most of them) are not equipped to handle significant mental health problems (I train them, so I know this from experience, they need to know when to refer to someone like me). Most clinicians that are doing it for free online are doing so to get their hours towards licensing or certification, is my guess. The problem with online counselling is that if the person you are counselling with is not in your state or province then they are likely counselling illegally, not to mention the fact that you have no recourse against them in the case of malpractice. A counsellor must be Registered to counsel in the state or province of the person being counselled... Caveat Emptor!
