I just heard that the Church has announced a major shift in access to LDS family services and their licensed counselors. In the past Bishops could opt to pay for the counseling services for a member out of fast offerings, but now the services are being provided free of charge to the unit for active members with a Bishops referral.

2022年1月1日 · After years of sessions with lds family services and no improvement on my mental health, the bishop sent me to a private therapist who “specialized in gay Mormon therapy”. That was a very traumatic and harmful reparative therapy where they tried to change my sexual orientation. The church set me up with the therapist and paid for this 100%.

2021年4月7日 · That said, some of LDS family services locations are very focused on short term treatments. If you are looking for deep growth which takes time, look elsewhere. But if you want some quick skills and quick work, go for it.

2021年8月22日 · My bishop covered the cost of marriage counseling, first at lds family services and then, when my counselor left the church he continued to pay for me to go to her new office. This started even i was a believer and my faith crisis got in the middle. My bishop didn't care that I wasn't attending, and I was the one to stop it when I resigned.

2016年7月16日 · There are 2 ways to approach LDS family services. If you would like helping paying for the therapy, then that needs to be approved through your Bishop and they will contact LDS family services and arrange the payment. If you don't mind paying for yourself and expect no financial help, then you don't need a referral.

For the sake of privacy I paid out of pocket. I had a previous experience with LDS Family Services (another post) where the ward paid that lasted only 3-4 sessions. I barely scratched the surface, and I was deemed "mentally okay" because I was a …

2022年7月27日 · Currently I’ve been reflecting on this very issue. My sibling worked for lds family services and handled adoptions. I heard a lot of stories and a whole lot of women whom were forced into signing by way of money or threats. I recall them bragging about taking the baby just minutes after they where born.

On 1st page of Ruby Franke's diary, she reports either her or Jodi Hildebrandt meeting with: 1) an LDS Temple President, 2) former LDS mission president Steve Caplin, 3) LDS General Authority Jeremy Jaggi, and 4) YM General Presidency member Brad …

2020年6月12日 · I have an ex mo friend who is 47. The other day we were discussing her lds background. She left the church when she was 30; temple marriage the whole 9 yards. Before the temple marriage at 23 ish she got pregnant. Dad ran out and she moved back home. Mom and dad set her up with a single mothers program with lds family services. And stuff got weird.

My Dad worked for LDS Family services when they used to do adoptions. He also worked in the laminate placement program. Later doing adoptions he would find people that wanted to give up a child for adoption and place them with LDS couples with temple recommends. Gotta grow the cult somehow. This was the 80's.
