As Christian therapists, we know that spiritual warfare is real. But how do we navigate it ethically, professionally, and with discernment in the therapy room? In this episode of The Holistic Counselor Podcast, I sit down with Camille McDaniel, LPC, to explore the complexities of spiritual warfare in clinical practice.

She is also the host of Christ in Private Practice, a podcast dedicated to helping Christian mental health professionals build faith-centered, clinically sound private practices.
Join us as we discuss how to recognize spiritual warfare in therapy, the ethical boundaries Christian counselors must uphold, and practical, faith-based tools for supporting clients facing spiritual oppression.

How to discern spiritual warfare vs. clinical symptoms
The ethical considerations of addressing spirituality in counseling
