“Hope is faith holding out its hand in the dark.” -George Iles
Life is messy. People are broken. Sometimes we just feel overwhelmed and not sure where to turn or what to do.
When challenging situations are ignored or overlooked, we become discouraged, hurt and weary and our relationships suffer.
Therapy can be the place where healing begins. We can work together to apply your strengths amd progress to your goals. There is hope.

Venture Church partners with Hope for Healing Counseling, and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Ann Hopkins, to offer individual, couple and family Christian counseling through our Central Campus location.
Ann is currently seeing clients in-person and via telehealth.

Her Choice to Heal
who we are
What do 25% of American women have in common? They’ve had an abortion. Many are silent - filled with shame, grief and guilt; afraid of judgement and condemnation, but peace is attainable. Learn to surrender shame and find emotional and spiritual healing after an abortion.
what we do
Support:
We offer support in one-on-one or group settings for those who are looking for hope from someone who has worked their way through abortion. Your privacy is of utmost concern, so please contact Rhoda directly at the email provided.
We also occasionally offer groups specifically designed for those looking to surrender shame and find emotional and spiritual healing after an abortion, even if it is years later. Visit our Groups page and search for "Her Choice to Heal."

Faith & Work
Who we are
Faith and Work is Venture’s ongoing effort to bring peace and prosperity to the city of Seattle through our work in the shattered church of the secular marketplace. Faith and Work helps equip those who are called to work outside the walls of the church to engage in business as a means of partnering with God.
What we do
We do this by offering classes, small groups, invitations to Keynote conversations discussing what it means to be Christian in the modern workplace, and opportunities to mentor or be mentored, along with time to unwind in fellowship.
