What is the experience of Catholics seeking mental health
treatment? Are Catholics well-served by the Christian and secular
counseling options offered by their Church or local community? What
competencies do Catholics look for when seeking professional
counseling? And finally, how does the experience of Catholics
seeking mental health counseling compare to that of Protestants.
This provocative study suggests that religiously committed
Catholics (over 20 million potential consumers of mental health
services in the US) feel that they have no place to turn for help
in their time of need. As compared to Protestants, who are
generally satisfied with the options provided by their Churches and
community, Catholics are not happy with generic Christian
counseling services, and often experience hostile reactions from
secular counselors. Further, Catholics desire a host of counselor
competencies that are distinct from their Protestant counterparts.
These differences are explored and recommendations are offered for
addressing the needs of this underserved population.
