I am a Christian and I am passionate about helping other Christians work through their spiritual struggles, find their purpose in connection with God's will, and overall develop and deepen their relationship with God. **Please note that while I am a Christian, I do not do "Christian Counselling" for those who do not identify as a Christian and/or who do not want counselling from a Christian worldview. I accept and appreciate all religions, spirituality's and worldviews.

As a Christian, I offer a safe and compassionate space where your spirituality is respected and valued. Having undergone my own disappointments and adversities in life, I understand how difficult it can be to maintain one's faith when troubles arise. It can be difficult to see God's plans for us when problems seem insurmountable, relationships are strained, and the future seems dark. Losses may be especially hard as we struggle with doubts and despair. We may even feel anger and disappointment in God and in our faith community. I empathize with your crisis of the heart and want to help in a manner that feels comfortable and appropriate for you.

I attended Providence Seminary for my counselling degree in order to learn how to integrate psychology and theology. I have found that both of these fields of study align and together they create a powerful method for healing. While I allow the client to initiate discussions of faith as they feel comfortable, I at all times conceptualize and treat client issues based upon my integrated belief in the Bible and psychology.

For many Christians the use of psychotropic medication is still unacceptable. Taking insulin or tablets for blood pressure is accepted, but taking ‘drugs’ for mental illness is often frowned upon. If you have questions about whether or not you as a Christian should take antidepressants, anti-anxiety medication, mood stabilizers, etc., Dr Mervin (Paraklesis Counselling) can come alongside you from a faith-based perspective and help you understand what these medications do, and why and when you should use them. “Honour the doctor for his services, for the Lord created him ... The Lord has created medicines from the earth, and a sensible man will not disparage them.” - Ecclesiasticus 38: 1-4

Some of our psychologists grew up Catholic and in a Catholic school system. They are spiritual and often times incorporate and embrace their spirituality into aspects of therapy that they employ, whether that be in the form of general spirituality or religion. Our psychologists are quite familiar with the beliefs of the Catholic Church and the different rituals, and use spirituality to empower people and help them find meaning in circumstances, if appropriate for the client.

Are you looking for counselling that integrates your faith? Are you struggling with the meaning and purpose of life? Meaning of suffering? Forgiveness? Moral decision-making? Peace and connectedness with God? Conflict regarding beliefs? Abuse and/or hurt from religious or spiritual influences? Recognizing the spiritual needs of clients, I can help. I have a personal faith in God and counsel in harmony with scriptural principles. My education includes counselling, nursing, biblical studies, theology and spirituality. While respecting my clients’ diverse backgrounds and expressions of faith, I use spiritual interventions that my clients are comfortable with.

The fact is no person is an island. Can you think of a world without others? There is no survival in living with others. To live with others, we must exercise compassion, love and generosity towards other people. Almost the people considered to great have preached and acted on the word of giving oneself to others, servant leadership, forgiveness, caring and love your neighbour as you love yourself. For example, think or the nature of life itself, the life of Jesus or Paul and others: these people gave their lives to others. I believe if we strive to give and share with others, the world becomes a better place.

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.

Jennifer is a Christian, that completed her Masters degree in Counselling at Providence Theological Seminary. She understands why some Christians would prefer to work with a therapist that is in line with their own spiritual beliefs, as worldview does inform one's practice and the direction therapy takes. Because Jennifer completed her B.A. in Psychology at the University of Victoria, with Distinction, she has both a high level of psychological knowledge along with theological understanding. She was also mentored for 18 months post Masters by one of the world's leading Christian psychologists, Dr. David Benner. For therapy that is honoring of your Christian beliefs, Jennifer is a good fit.

Most people of faith say it defines the essence of who they are. But somewhere between the miracles of creation, Good Friday and "new life" we've discover how hard it has become to make sense of 'joy-filled' living in a broken world. Our 'well-being' can feel like suffering and our peace can turn into despair. How can we live well in a world that counterintuitively lives opposed to God's goodness, mercy and justice? Can we question without losing our faith? Can we suffer without landing in despair? Can we deal with 'sin' without losing the essence of our beloved identity and God's perfect love? What does He really ask of us?

Dr. Val has studied her Bible for years and bases her life on it's teachings. If people believe the word of God, they will hearken to the Bible's teachings. In her experience, Dr. Val has come to the conclusion that all the problems narrated by clients are spiritual ones, whether or not the client realizes it. A long time ago, a group member in a domestic violence therapy session stated, "the things I want to do I'm not doing, and the things I don't want to do, I find myself doing." Dr. Val recognized that, unknown to the client, he was actually quoting the Apostle Paul. It was then she started to pay closer attention to how problems AND SOLUTIONS tallied with the Bible's words.

When clients specifically request our counselling sessions to have a Christian focus I am able to integrate scriptual teaching & Christian counselling research within the broader field of psychotherapy assessment & treatment. When I take a Christian approach I find that therapy works towards alleviating psychological stressors while helping people to appropriate a deeper understanding & appreciation of the grace of God.

How can we address thinking and behavior, without including the soul? "Guard your heart for it is the wellspring of life." How do we deal with conflicting desires, interests, and wants?

If you want a compassionate, grace-based approach to who you are and who you were meant to be, I'll journey along with you as you live out the personalized chapters of the life God has for you, and your relationship with Him will deepen. I practice caring, companionable soul care that helps you see God's presence in your life, no matter where you are in your journey.

I offer Christian/Biblical Counselling due to my own personal conversion from Islam to Christianity where I was saved after nearly dying from a fatal car accident on Deerfoot Trail in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. My faith saved me not only from my physical injuries sustained in the accident and my chronic ill health of rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia but also from my emotional and psychological trauma and heartbreak. I was so filled with God's unconditional acceptance that healing came quickly after I surrendered and was baptized.
