Christian Counselling West Point Grey, BC. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

I help clients work through the issues that prevent them from having the life that they want for themselves. Christian clients that want to work from a biblical perspective are helped by addressing the issues through the lense of their belief system. We can look up bible verses that address the topics that they are wanting to work on in the appointments.

"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear." (1 Jn 4:18). Christ is the source and model of Love. In a place of love we are not afraid, there is acceptance in the presence of Christ and therein the freedom and safety to change. Current research into key factors of therapeutic healing points to "attachment:" Defined, this term matches the Biblical description of Love. Christ's Love is strong, restorative, clarifying and empowering. As we address the challenges and issues that are part of our earthly walk the love of Christ is here - present, strong and safe. In counselling we will prayerfully seek support in addressing relational and individual concerns

My approach to Christian counselling is informed by years of studying philosophy, theology, and the history of Christianity. Beyond denominational differences, I often see people struggling to nurture their spirituality and to feel God’s presence in their daily lives. For many, faith becomes difficult during times of uncertainty, doubt, or suffering. In counselling, I help clients reflect more deeply on their faith, explore its meaning in their lives, and reconnect with a sense of purpose and hope. Faith is a gift, but counselling can help people engage with it more consciously and find strength and direction through it.

If your Christian faith is an important part of your life, then it is likely to play a significant role in your personal growth or healing. I believe in integrating your faith into our counselling sessions in a way that honours and respects your beliefs. Without dictating what you should believe or telling you how to live, I will help you to draw deeply from your faith for guidance and comfort in the counselling process. You can rest assured that you will be in a safe place where you will be understood and respected by someone for whom the Christian faith also has played a vital role for many years.

The Christian lens I provide is based on the principles of speaking the truth in love, laying aside all masks & pretence and being congruent. By providing empathy, comfort, education, conviction, encouragement through a gentle process forged by listening and building trust, I offer a safe environment for people to release emotional pain. I can apply biblical principles to spur change in people’s hearts. This process is facilitated through personal responsibility while harnessing the brain's ability to heal whether by combining insights from social sciences, strengthening neural connections with brain training via Neurofeedback or processing barriers due to emotionally charged memories with EMDR.

Is anyone tired of traditional "Christian" Counseling? I know I came to that place in my life growing up, when I didn't just want to hear that God could heal all of my messes (even though I knew He could - if it is His will), I wanted to know that someone (hear on earth) had my best interests at hand too! However, there is still evil around us, and we certainly don't just want to put our hearts in minds into the hands of just anyone. It is important, in my opinion, to have an educated counselor that knows what he or she is doing, who also see's counseling as a partnership between him/herself (the counselor), God and the power of prayer, and of course the client.

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.

When your dependancy of form (body image, material world ) is gone things, people ,or conditions, that you thought you needed for your happiness now come to you with no struggle or effort on your part. With dependency gone there is no fear of loss anymore. Life begins to flow with ease. Martin incorporates his clients spirituality, beliefs, and value systems to provide a wholistic intergrative approach to counselling

I counsel clients from a christian ministry. God is there to heal, and I support clients through god's words.

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.

Christian counselling with me is grounded in the conviction that each person bears dignity before God and is not defined by failure or struggle. Scripture serves not as a weapon of correction, but as a lens through which we understand identity, suffering, repentance, forgiveness, and hope. Faith can be integrated thoughtfully into therapy through biblical reflection, prayer when desired, and examining how beliefs shape emotional life. Healing often begins when light is allowed into places shaped by fear or shame. As hidden struggles are brought honestly before God, many clients experience renewed hope, greater integrity, and a growing sense of spiritual and emotional wholeness.

"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.

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.

I am a Christian Counsellor that will work to thoughtfully include your relationship with God in the healing process. I work with clients who want to grow emotionally and spiritually, within a safe and clinically grounded environment. I combine evidence-based therapeutic approaches with a Christ-centered lens, because I believe that psychological healing and spiritual formation are deeply interconnected processes. While having faith does not replace the work of processing grief, anger, or trauma, it does provide the foundation and framework for freedom and lasting change.

Spirituality often serves as the cornerstone of our understanding and interaction with the world. If you're seeking a therapist who shares your Christian faith, I am here to offer Christian counselling.

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.

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,
