Counseling Ministry
The Choctaw Baptist Association counseling ministry began in September 2006. Polly Yates is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and came on board with Choctaw to help build a Christian counseling ministry in this community. The purpose of this ministry is to provide counseling in a non-threatening, confidential setting to all who God sends to us and to be an extension of the local church and its ministries.
Polly has been counseling in this area for some time and has continued to counsel in her individual practice as the ministry develops. We have seen God work in the lives of those she has counseled. We believe that it is time for further integration with the counselors, the Association, the local church and the community. The desire is for the ministry to be more visible and “user friendly.”
For more information about our counseling ministry or to make an appointment, please call the association office, (850)664-1222.
