Center For Relational Care – Georgetown

Specialties

Using the Intimacy Therapy model developed by David Ferguson, PhD., LPC, the CRC provides counseling for individuals, couples, and families as well as training for professional and pastoral counselors.

Counseling: Do you feel far from God? Do your interpersonal relationships lack true intimacy? Is something in your life just not right? CRC is the flagship center for Intimacy Therapy, a biblical therapeutic approach that can accelerate the healing process through caring, connected, and confidential relational experiences.

Relational Intensives: Relational Care Intensives are three– and four-​day therapeutic programs that offer structured, focused opportunities for personal growth and relational enrichment. Customized Intensives are available for married couples, singles, or families.

Training: The CRC trains and equips professional and pastoral counselors in the message and methodologies of Intimacy Therapy – a model for Christian counseling that leads people to experience God’s truths in the context of a relationship with Him and others.

Accelerated Relational Care (ARC) Process: We use principles informed by scripture and psychological research to address hurt, anger, fear, guilt, and shame and to restore relationships. Unique to CRC, the Accelerated Relational Care Process compresses the time span typically required in traditional counseling.
