Christian Counseling Normandy Park, WA. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

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.

In the midst of struggle, it is wise to draw on all your sources of support. To the degree that supports your goals and desires, I incorporate your faith into our sessions. I integrate prayer, scripture, and a Christian worldview with evidence-based psychotherapies. We will lean on the Lord to guide and participate in your healing journey. There is much we can do together, the important thing is to start. ..“Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin” Zechariah 4:10.

I like to consider Christian therapy through a couple of categories. For many years we've confessed sins and truths to God and each other as the church; therapy is a place to be honest and seek what is true without having to hide anything. It's also a lot like what we find in wisdom literature (Psalms, Proverbs, Job and others) where hopes and fears and desires are voiced before God. These things bring us into relationship with God, ourselves, and others. This work is deeply connected to my faith- with it I can offer a helping hand in navigating life's difficulties.

My training as a Marriage and Family Therapist has reinforced my respect for each and every person's right to choose to practice their faith in the manner that is in line with their beliefs. Many people come to me because I am not out to change their beliefs, but to work with them as a whole persons as they are. My Christian background is good news to many who are concerned that their beliefs might not be considered in the therapy process. Call me if you have any questions in this regard 425 652-1413.

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.

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.

God’s love is abundant and unfailing. However, sometimes it can feel like it’s blocked behind a huge wall or He’s uncooperative. During life’s challenges and hardships, wavering faith brings about a complex paradox of anger and shame. If you feel this journey of faith is unreasonable lonely, I am here with you or your child to unpack the relationship between you and your God in a safe and non-judgmental environment. You are not alone, and He does not want you or your child to be alone.

As a Christian it is comforting to know that your therapist has the same beliefs that you do. Feel safe sharing your concerns in a judgement free environment. Be confident that the changes you want to see as a result of working together will be mine as well. Better self esteem, healing from past friendships, couple relationships or family dynamics can be addressed and improved. Anxiety, depression, feelings of failure can all be changed. Understanding what troubles you and how to live differently is what I want to help you achieve. I offer a comfortable and confidential counseling environment. Located conveniently in North Seattle.

Faith can be an important part of the healing process. In Christian counseling, I integrate Biblical principles with evidence-based practices to support you spiritually and emotionally. You’ll receive guidance rooted in your beliefs while working through life’s challenges. Whether you’re navigating grief, anxiety, or relational issues, you’ll find strength and direction in a faith-centered space.

As a Christian therapist, I am committed to helping people overcome their difficulties so they can find the freedom that God intends for us. I believe that God uses our brokenness to help us transform and grow closer to Him. With the help of a compassionate counselor, we can safely explore our deepest, most vulnerable parts and find the healing we need. I work with issues such as marriage/relationship difficulties, addictions, co-addictions, anxiety & stress, depression, grief/loss, and spiritual healing.

As both a pastor and a therapist, I have a unique opportunity to have a positive impact in your life. I am passionate about weaving theology and psychology together in a way that lays a foundation for Jesus to change the human heart. Our work together will help you explore your true identity in Christ, addressing potential theological questions or roadblocks you may have and applying Biblical principles to your situation so you can be more aware of how to choose to live a life within God's will. Active prayer listening, addressing spiritual/Biblical matters and helping you encounter Jesus are all potential disciplines that we may utilize in our time together if you wish.

When clients contacts us, they seek outstanding professional help, whether they are Christian, Agnostic, Atheist or any other religion. If you seek religious guidance only, we suggest contacting your faith's organization. Christian clients desire a grounded Biblical approach.

Integrity, character, and foundational values also greatly assist and influence clients' health.

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.
