Biblical and Christian Counseling in 76502: Temple, TX.

I am not trained in biblical counseling. Rather I am a Christian who is a therapist. My beliefs are part of who I am and most assuredly influence my counseling. When I have a client who is also a Christian, we pull from biblical principles and faith or spirituality practices and beliefs as a part of the healing process. For individuals who do not consider themselves a Christian, but do consider themselves spiritual individuals, I respect their beliefs and help them tap into their faith for their healing.

I was born and raised with the very strong and well defined beliefs of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon). Christian principles governed my life choices. I loved my experience in the church surrounded by loving, hard-working people. But later in life I went on a spiritual walk-about and I visited many different religious houses. I came to love good Christian people of all religions. Faith plays such a valuable role for people's happiness and I welcome therapeutic work that involves a person's faith. As my own faith and beliefs continue to evolve, I wouldn't dream of imposing them in therapy; but I willingly embrace my client's faith as a therapeutic touchstone to guide
