For many people, faith is an important part of their lives and their decisions are often informed by their understanding of Scripture. Unless we're willing to discuss religious beliefs, we may remain stuck. I'm comfortable having conversations about religious beliefs. I have a BA in Theology and serve as a lay pastor on the side where I preach sermons. With that being said, be wary of anyone who claims to speak *for* God or knows the "Biblical" thing to do. I consider myself a "Christian counselor" rather than a "Biblical counselor" because I usually do not quote the Bible in counseling unless you ask for something specific because I think it's too often abused. I do not replace the Spirit.

Our team of therapists can help you face your specific issues from a Biblical and Christian perspective, and tailor a treatment plan specifically for you. Our team of counselors come from a wide variety of backgrounds, so we're confident we can find you help that's best suited for your unique challenges and goals. Working with us, you'll get results. Please don't wait, we're ready to help you today.

In the gospel of Matthew, Jesus states “If your eye is sound, your whole body will be full of light.” This simple statement guides my approach to counseling. The light exists, and we sometimes need help to improve the soundness of our mental and emotional “eyes” to let more light into our personal awareness and influence our feelings, thoughts and behavior. I respect the sacred and unique way that each person experiences a relationship with God, especially during periods of mental, emotional, or relational distress. From my own study of the Bible, I am continually impressed by the applicability of Christian values and truth to issues of mental, emotional, and relational health.

Are you looking for counseling, but want a therapist who shares your Christian faith? My Christian faith has always been an essential part of my life, which is why, when I decided to become a psychotherapist, I chose to get my degree in pastoral counseling at what is now Loyola University Maryland. I consider my relationship with God to be an essential part of my ability to help my counseling clients. I also find shared aspects of Christian faith to be very useful when working with Christian clients; drawing upon our common beliefs can be a rich source of healing. Please contact me today so we can discuss the ways in which I can help you to reach your goals.

Like most counselors, I recognize personal problems can come about because of physiology, social-environmental influences, and psychological pressures. As a Christian counselor, I am not limited to psychological techniques or to my own human efforts and wisdom. I believe God is the real authority in counseling and He gives us the resources to change. I believe that counseling without Our Creator is operating in vanity and ineffective. My counseling goal is to advocate forgiveness from the past, strength and comfort for the present, and hope for the future. I am sensitive to the many dilemmas we face, and I am trained to identify and assist in navigating through the process of healing.

Since I have a Masters, Doctorate, and A Doctor of Divinity in the Theology field and then a Ph.D I use these insights to your advantage. Also I rely heavily on prayer and praying with you at each session. I have developed these fields so I can understand what and how you believe and how it is effecting you and others. A very large part of one's life is spiritual. We may choose to hide from this fact, but the truth is the truth. I do not see my role as changing your values, but may suggest in an area of some other ways to consider. After all, how and what we think is the way we act out our lives. I have worked with most all different religions and understand theire process.

Whether you are seeking to deepen your spiritual connection, explore new ways to live in alignment with your beliefs, or transition away from an inherited faith tradition -- our conversations will help you continue along the journey of your faith. I blend western and eastern religious theory and am comfortable with agnosticism. I often use out-of-session readings and 'homework' assignments to encourage private reflection and practice of the insights gained in therapy.

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.

Are you looking for someone with educational expertise and work experience? I have more than 15 years of professional counseling experience providing safe, compassionate and supportive help to families, couples, and individual clients experiencing a range of personal issues. I can also provide Christian counseling, which will provide spiritual solutions to your challenges.

As a Christian, I can work with you on your life issues through the lens of your relationship to God and Christ. I truly feel that my personal spiritual beliefs in no way hinder me from working with any client; on the contrary, I know that my spirituality is a key component of who I am as a person and thus as a therapist. If you are a Christian looking for a therapist who speaks your language and is accepting of your Bible-based faith, I would be happy to speak with you.

Being a Christian certainly does not keep us from experiencing hard times, emotional struggles, illnesses, or relationship pain. My goal is to help you navigate whatever challenges you may be experiencing, either individually or as a couple, in a way that strengthens your faith and reminds you of the purpose God has for your life. While it can be incredibly hard to walk as a Christian in the world today, it is my belief that God will make a way.

My background in Christian studies spans almost 18 years including college studies that required understanding of multiple Christian religions. In understanding Biblical fundamentals on how to relate to religion, relationships, and the management of self I am able to understand and discuss the challenges that society today places on the life of a practicing Christian.
