Introducing the Cyclical Europe Counseling Center:

Finding Purpose in the Cyclical Europe Counseling Center

June 30, 2025
By Jen Lac & Lawrence Sharrett

When people in Europe hear about a counseling center for those wounded by the church, the most common response is, “Wow—there are a lot of people who need that.” And they’re right.

Many have been hurt—either directly by the church, or through their faithful service to it. Others quietly carry their faith while distancing themselves from institutions that no longer feel safe or trustworthy. Where do these people go for healing, support, or simply a place to belong?

That’s why the Cyclical Europe Counseling Center and the Cyclical Europe Faith Community exist.

We support cross-cultural Christian workers, leaders, and people of faith who feel disillusioned, isolated, or burned out. Add visa issues, language barriers, loneliness, family needs, and cultural stress—and it’s clear why staying the course is so difficult.

We’re here to help.

Our team includes seven experienced pastoral and mental health counselors offering online and hybrid services—individual counseling, group sessions, trauma support, and leadership care. We’re based in Europe, Africa, and the U.S., and serve individuals, families, and teams from across the globe.

We also offer opportunities for people to gather weekly or monthly for a 30-minute online Sunday worship service, creating a space for reflection and connection with others. Whether you’re leading a church, raising a family in a new culture, or just holding onto faith in quiet ways, you are welcome to join us for one of these gatherings. Our theme is Mental Health & The Future of Christianity.

Since our official launch in May 2025, we’ve already held dozens of counseling sessions and are supporting over 12 individuals with a network reach of 250 through our growing work.

We believe healing leads to flourishing. And we believe that what we’re building together—counseling, community, care—is part of the future health and faithful innovation of the church in Europe.
