Christian Counseling Brevard, NC. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

I am a Board Certified Professional Christian Counselor through the American Association of Christian Counselors. I believe there is only one true God. I believe in the trinity of Father, son, and the Holy Spirit. I believe in the death and resurrection of Christ as atonement for our sins. I believe in the power and authority of prayer and that God cares about every aspect of our lives. I believe and have experienced God's plan for my life and His hand in my life and had the privilege of seeing Him work in the lives of others. I believe whomever comes to me for counseling is sent by God for His purposes. My job is follow His lead in obedience and glorify Him in my work.

Christian counseling is based on using solid Biblical principles to guide one's life. Clients will benefit by learning how to apply practical Biblical principles to their thought processes. Our behavior is a result of how we think. Right thinking produces right behavior. Biblical principles are right thinking, and when we learn to think with Biblical principles, our behavior will be right.

I rely on biblically based truths to support a person to address mental health issues and regain hope in Jesus Christ. I believe God wants each person to be whole, healed, and mature and therefore, through reliance on Holy Spirit, seek to provide a space to grow, gain self-understanding, effect lasting behavior changes, find healing and freedom, and learn more effective communication skills.

I practice counseling that engages the spiritual life of my clients and that enables them to draw strength from God . The whole therapeutic process intends to honor the being and values of the client, sometimes reminding them of biblical parables and the context of Jesus as healer, but never tryng to steer them toward my personal beliefs. I have had great success using this approach, and have had clients be very comfortable with it. I should note that I also work with clients of other faiths and of no faith, who are aware that I am a Christian and a minister, but who also feel respected.
