Christian Counseling Bellevue, WA. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

As someone who considers himself a “Christian” counselor, I have to ask myself is there a difference between what I do and a traditional counselor? And if so, how would a client know the difference? Let me start with what clients should be aware of. Regardless of who you see, this idea of a counselor as being objective, neutral, and free of any moral bias is inaccurate. The core business of counseling as it stands today is about seeing someone to help you change your behavior (i.e. thoughts, feelings, actions). But I believe God wants more than behavioral change, he wants deep inner change that touches the soul of who we are. That is the work I strive towards, inner change.

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.

For clients that prefer an integration of Christian/Biblical and Psychological principals into the therapy process, I offer this approach to better meet your needs and guide the focus of the work. Having extensive knowledge of the Bible and the foundations of evangelical Christianity, I can support the framing of your emotional and relational patterns as well as their solutions within a Christian framework.

Having a spiritual foundation for my counseling practice makes a profound difference in how I guide people and the level in which I move from. I have had the great good fortune to have studied with two phenomenal Christian teachers and their wisdom has supported my work. I share that wisdom and insight with all the people I counsel and they find it to be awakening. If you are looking for a more spiritual foundation in counseling then feel free to reach out.

Faith does not shield us from life’s challenges. Even as Christians, we may face seasons of emotional struggle, illness, grief, or relationship pain. My goal in Christian counseling is to walk with you through these difficulties in a way that strengthens your faith and reminds you of the hope and purpose God has for your life. While following Christ in today’s world can feel overwhelming at times, I believe that God always provides a path forward. Together, we can seek healing, peace, and restoration through both sound therapeutic practice and the sustaining truth of God’s Word.
