Christian Counselling Tsawwassen, BC. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

Somehow when we know that Jesus is the one who is doing the healing, and we place our trust in Him, we can find peace within the journey of healing. "Come to me.....and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28). I am a counselor of Christian faith and I use healing prayer and the Bible along with cognitive and mind-body approaches in my work with Christian clients.

While I don't offer "Christian counselling" as a modality, I am a counsellor who is a Christian. I have a degree in Theology, and before becoming a psychotherapist I spent 10 years in pastoral church ministry. Many who have been part of the Church and ‘church culture’ have been impacted. Sorting through faith experiences and one’s theological beliefs is part of what might lead you to seek a Christian counsellor. For anyone who is deconstructing or reconstructing their faith, has experienced pain or abuse within in their faith community/clergy, or are simply interested in a biblical approach to psychotherapy, I can help with that.

As part of my graduate training in psychology, I also completed a Masters in Theology, as well as a pastoral practicum. My psychology training also included a focus on the integration of psychology and spirituality; how they can influence and strengthen each other. However, I never seek to inject my own beliefs into therapy! Rather, I feel it is important for me to understand how your faith and beliefs are a part of your understanding of your issues and how you can draw upon them. I try to see each of my patients as whole people, and that includes their faith and beliefs.

"LGBTQ-affirming Christian counselling, really?" I can't blame you for being skeptical. Many churches have caused great harm to their LGBTQ members through fear and shame based ideology, rejection, and abusive practices, such as conversion therapy. So... where do we go from here? Your spiritual journey is your own. Whether you work on deconstructing or interrogating or re-imagining your faith, I am here to support you. I work from a fully LGBTQ-affirming perspective to help queer Christians integrate faith and queer identity, normalize doubt, process religious trauma, and find a sense of belonging. There's nothing wrong with you. You are whole and holy, just as you are.

As a Christian, my practice reflects that. My formal training was at a Christian University. Not all my clients are Christian, which is fine and something I respect. However, for those clients who are Christians, I will integrate prayer, Scripture, and Biblical principles and values into my counselling. Scripture, God's truths, give a road map into life's challenges. I believe the Holy Spirit guides me and gives me wisdom as I work with my clients as well. God loves you and wants you to live a life of healing and freedom.

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.

In my practice, I use a holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of my clients' lives. I see each client as having inherent dignity and worth and this shapes my approach in every way. My hope is that each of my clients can show up as they are, being free to explore thoughts and feelings, connect with their faith/spirituality, and develop the skills necessary to live a more fulfilling life.

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.

My experience in the Christian church provides me the context to which I can witness, understand and reflect your experiences, questions and concerns related to organized religion.

Without judgement, I will explore your faith questions and journey with you to wherever that leads.

I am a Christian counsellor born, raised and practicing in the Christian faith. The laws of Love taught in the Bible are as relevant today as they were when the Bible was written. Jesus left us with His example and a set of principles, to guide us through the trials that we face in our current lives. Although the form and conditions of our lives now have changed, this guidance helps us to navigate through the challenges of the current day. My practice of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) includes an openness to The Holy Spirit to guide our process. Sue Johnson's book "Created For Connection" shows how EFT can help couples repair their marital relationship in the context of Christianity.

Spirituality often serves as the cornerstone of our understanding and interaction with the world.

I also specialize in helping individuals heal from the wounds they may have sustained within the church community. Let's take the first step together—contact me for a consultation phone call."

As a pastor and an evangelist, I have firm faith in God that I offer therapy with God’s loving kindness. As a pastoral therapist who aspires to strong principals, ethics, and Christian faith, I believe that Jesus is a key for all. I have a strong conviction that the goal of therapy should include both psychological and spiritual wholeness. Every situated proportions, it depends on the setting, theory of the belief system and expectations of the client. In my judgement the best way to accomplish this goal is walking through faith step by step. I will help my clients to rediscover the love, support, acceptance, collaboration, and kindness, and create a strong, loving relationship in Christ.

If you are reviewing this section to check whether I am a “bona fide” Christian or simply a person who believes that all people are good, then I can assure you that I am a Christian. IF on the other hand, you are reviewing this section in fear that I may be a “bible thumper” or a fanatical lunatic, I want to assure you that it is never my intention to force anyone to “get converted”. As a Christian, it is actually impossible for me to relate to my clients in an authentic way if I deviate from my worldview. Having said that, the journey that you are inviting me on is YOURS, not mine and you will be fully in charge of where we travel, the speed of the journey as well as our final destination,

I was raised and educated in the church, and wherever I go, this background follows me.

Approaching counselling from a Christian perspective is not about relying on God to solve your problems, but rather learning how to align oneself to live and work within his created world and intentions for our happiness. Free will is an essential gift that allows us to explore this creation and find meaning and happiness that has been inspired by God. Developing a trust in God to guide and direct us in this task is an essential process in establishing faith that God will keep us safe whiling using our freewill and experience to look both ways before we cross the street.
