Christian Counselling Mission, BC. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

I am a practising Catholic. I use a common sense approach and I respect all religions. There is no right or wrong religion. My faith has helped me many times during my lengthy career. For 14 years I was a consultant with the BC Coroner's Office and I did psychological autopsies of teens that either committed suicide or were suspected of committing suicide. Many times my faith gave me the strength to support those grieving parents in the most terrible time of their lives.

While most Christian Counselors pride themselves on how many Scriptural passages they can recite and how many links they can make from the Bible to psychological disorders, the Christian-centric work of Grey Matters International, Inc.is grounded in one principle: truth. For us, the work is more about truth and transparency of Christ's message and working on the natural laws of accountability and decision making that evolves from that. If one honors God's natural laws of reaping and sowing around the decisions one makes, one is indeed living Scripture to its fullest. We prepare the brain to better maximize the spiritual realities of Christ's words. Contact kevin@kevinflemingphd.com.

If you're seeking a therapist who shares your Christian faith, I am here to offer Christian counselling.

I also specialize in helping individuals heal from the wounds they may have sustained within the church community. Let's take the first step together—contact me for a consultation phone call."

As a counselor I provide Christian and spiritual direction through the counseling process. This process is Christian and spiritually centered with the client as their own expert. As a Christian and spiritually focused clinician I value each individual client with their own uniqueness, values and beliefs. As a Christian counselor I believe in the trinity which includes God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

I am a Bible-believing Evangelical Christian of 40 years. Yet, I welcome people of all faiths or no faith because I am neither a priest or minister, but a counsellor here to serve you. I openly identify myself as a Christian, because I believe it's fair for you to know my bias. Therefore, if I am working with a Christian client, I will join you in open prayer as you request. If I am working with a non-believer, I will engage you at YOUR level of meaning and purpose. My goal is to help you break free of whatever is holding you back.

Approaching counselling from a Christian perspective is not about relying on God to solve your problems, but rather learning how to align oneself to live and work within his created world and intentions for our happiness. Free will is an essential gift that allows us to explore this creation and find meaning and happiness that has been inspired by God. Developing a trust in God to guide and direct us in this task is an essential process in establishing faith that God will keep us safe whiling using our freewill and experience to look both ways before we cross the street.

God is love, love for the self, love for life, love for others… we are enveloped in his milky warm embrace, but at times we question our lives, question our tribulations, question our faith through the darkest of our hours. I am here to create space for a non judgemental reflection on his path, purpose & love for you, even if it feels stagnant or waning, building on your faith will supply the fortitude that is required to embark on this journey with grace, acceptance and humility for your life. Whether you are questioning or looking for more assurances that you are indeed on the right path.

While Pacific Coast Counselling in Abbotsford does not offer "biblical" counselling, at least one of our therapists identifies as Christian. This may also be helpful for clients who are/were Christian and wish to feel understood at a deeper level around issues of spiritual abuse, trauma, grief and loss, anger with God, purity culture, deconstruction of faith etc..

Any spiritual conversations in my office will start with the approach you and I will agree upon. Some of my clients just want to talk to someone else about their beliefs regarding specific topics. From my perspective, openness can lead to incredible solutions to our spiritual challenges. I actively listen to peoples who come to my office for any spiritual aspect of their lives. Again I use collaborative approaches that favour sharing. And when my clients need to be listened to, sharing with them for a couple of hours can provide them the therapy they were seeking. However since everyone is different, so can their concerns/issues, therefore approaches can vary in order to adapt.

My faith is an important part of my identity, and I believe it is also important to address a client's spirituality in therapy. Though I do not specifically use scripture or prayer in sessions with clients, I do think it valuable to engage in conversations around spirituality and religion for clients to whom this applies. I have worked with many clients for whom their spirituality played a vital role in our sessions.
