Christian Counselling Kemptville, ON. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

My Christian clients are seen individually or as a family. I provide Biblically based counseling support to my clients as they work on whatever issues are contributing to their distress and difficulties in life. I see Christian clients who are dealing with mental health challenges, interpersonal issues, issues with their spirituality, workplace and career issues, among others. I am a Registered Social Worker with a Christian background; I have an MSW and a BSW degrees. I am currently a Ph.D. student in Christian Counseling and Community Care at the Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid, John 14:27.

When considering Christian Counselling, I think of the following principals: 1. Christian Counselling is offered by counsellors or therapists who are Christians, and who bring an understanding of the Christian faith to the counseling sessions, 2. While many of the issues people bring to counselling are not explicitly religious in nature, there is a dynamic, implicit directionality in the overall Christian Counselling process, 3. Christian counselling draws upon knowledge from many fields including psychology, and views all health and restorative processes and wholesome outcomes, and 4. What makes counselling Christian, is not that the process is essentially different from other r....

It is Tracy’s belief that we are all spiritual beings, such that we all have a meaning or purpose in life. Just as one’s cultural background influences an individual, so does one’s spiritual background. Spirituality is viewed in a broad perspective, such that some individuals experience spirituality through religious traditions, others experience their spirituality in a more independent manner, e.g., finding solace while walking through the woods. Spirituality will be explored in our counselling sessions.

The latest psychological research shows that spiritual pratices and beliefs are a very potent source for overcoming and coping with the harsh realities of life. At Elim our counsellors, in addition to being Christians, are specially trained in understanding the interplay between the spiritual and the problems that people face. For example a Christian client who is dealing with a divorce may also be dealing with the questions of why did God allow it to happen and may also be wrestling with identity issues as a divorced person in his/her faith group. These kind of issues require trained Christian therapists who understands spiritual beliefs and who are aware of the Christian culture.

Christian Counselling is for those who acknowledge the Trinity (Father God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit) in their life. Those who hold the Bible as the Sacred Word of God, the heart of God and use it as their moral compass. They see Jesus as having died for our sins. If the above describe you, then I am the type of Counsellor you want. As a Christian Counsellor I will not use Christianity or the Bible to tell you what to do, condemn you or fill you with guilt. Therapy can help you walk in wholeness and have a deeper relationship with God. Sometimes our life experiences (past and present) interferes with our relationships (with God and others). Therapy can help.

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.

People often want Christian counselling so they can include their spiritual beliefs in a receptive environment. You may want to have your faith principles, practices and scripture included as support, guidance, or even as an area of questioning or concern. As a Christian myself and a trained pastoral counsellor as well as an experienced Registered Marriage & Family Therapist I offer professional therapy to individuals, couples and families and will respectfully include the spiritual side of your life as that fits for you. I invite you to contact me for support in exploring and navigating any challenges you or your family are experiencing, with respect and including your faith perspective.

We will engage with any client's religious or spiritual persuasion, including a Christian perspective. The Counsellors are trained to incorporate the individual's or couples' belief systems as they establish a treatment plan for them. Allowing for personal faith traditions within the context of pastoral counselling, can help identify otherwise hidden differences in opinion, faith and practice.
