Courage to Connect’s Beliefs
Courage to Connect does have identifying beliefs that connect with Christianity. Even though that is a part of what we hold, we are committed to working with people of all backgrounds, religious and non-religious. We hold no judgment for anyone and the journey they are currently walking through, and every person is welcome where they are in the moment, regardless of their faith or religious beliefs. By the ethics we uphold within the counseling profession, we cannot morally or ethically impose our values upon any person who walks into our office. Each individual’s strongest desire to integrate or not integrate spirituality will be held by that individual and respected by each counselor at Courage to Connect. We will never impose our values or belief system on anyone, and we welcome any conversation regarding the topic of spirituality and beliefs. The conversation of spirituality is held directly within the hands of each individual that walks into our office.
It is the belief and action of Courage to Connect Counseling to not discriminate against any individual or group on the basis of race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, citizenship status, age, sex, marital status, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, non-disqualifying disability or veteran/military status in matters of admissions, employment, or services. Policy applies to all clinical services, educational programs or training programs. The staff at Courage to Connect Counseling are fully committed to function in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local laws regarding non-discrimination. We want each individual that steps through our doors to create and have safety within whatever stage of life they are in or any presenting struggle they want to bring in.
