Biblical and Christian Counseling in 30290: Tyrone, GA.

As a Christian psychiatrist, my unique approach to treatment involves adding a Biblical foundation and a Christian framework to the services I provide. I am a certified Biblical counselor and an active member of The American Association of Christian Counselors. As a Christian physician, I understand how devastating the impact mental disorders can have on patients and their families. I also know that mental disorders are real medical conditions that can affect anyone, including Christians. You are not alone. There is hope. We are here to help.

Repairing your relationship with God can be very helpful in allowing yourself to let go of things you cannot control that feeds anxiety and depression. Learning how to be present in the moment and trusting how life unfolds can help you transition to a happier life. You can start doing this by taking time each day to connection with the creator in any way that works for you: prayer, meditation, acts of service, generosity, time in nature or a daily devotion like my favorite "Jesus Calling." I enjoy helping couples and individuals improve their lives by reprioritizing God, increasing self love, learning forgiveness, practicing gratitude, embracing grace and creating joy.

In a world where we are constantly witnessing human cruelty and brokenness it is common to ask the question of, "Why, God?" or "Where were you, God?" Our spirituality and faith are tested day by day making it difficult to stay consistently connected to God. It's especially hard to do alone, which I believe is why God gave us one another in community. You will find my office to be a place of peace, prayer, soul searching, and forgiveness. Together, we will wrestle through scripture and discussion in search of answers to the difficult questions of life. My goal is that in time you will find healing and restoration in your faith.

I help clients of Christian faith and other spiritual backgrounds to explore faith issues, church hurt, and spirituality from a Christian lens. I offer an accepting, non-judgemental space to ask questions, wrestle with difficulties, and process faith-related topics. I use a spiritually integrative approach and can bring a knowledge of biblical themes and theology without imposing dogmatic scriptural applications. I have additional training in Masters' level Christian Counseling and hold seminary certificates in Biblical literacy and apologetics.

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.

You do not have to be a Christian to benefit from counseling, but if you are a believer Summer can provide spiritual direction and perspective based on her own conversion to Christianity as an adult. Summer earned a degree in Christian counseling from Richmont Graduate University along with a Master's degree in counseling from Georgia State University.

On separate occasions Christ is referred to as The Great Physician and The Wonderful Counselor. I believe that no healing is possible without Him. I'm thankful that God has given incredible skill and knowledge to the men and women whom we seek when we have physical and/or emotional illnesses. I support them completely. In my practice, whether I'm counseling with a couple who's marriage is in trouble, or an individual suffering with an anxiety disorder, I follow prescribed standards of sound mental health therapy, but I'm always careful that I remain true to Christian principles with any counsel I give.

No safer place. No better time. Life is hard at times, and no one gets a pass. It’s easy to buy into an “I can do this all by myself” mentality, but in our humanness we’re not strong enough or smart enough to handle everything that life throws our way. Through Christian counseling I can help you. My specialties include conflict resolution, divorce intervention, infidelity recovery, adolescent crises, couples counseling, marriage repair, marriage preparation, anger management, and spiritual struggles. My passion is to help you find your way back to hope in life and healing in relationships. Don’t go it alone. God didn’t plan it that way, and He wants to be with you.
