Biblical and Christian Counseling in 61111: Loves Park, IL.

Offering support and counseling under the guidance of Christ's word, your therapist will work with you to connect the principals in the bible with your personal life. You'll benefit from a reduction of symptoms, and a renewed relationship with Jesus and yourself. I believe that by allowing ourselves to ask Christ to help us with our problems, combined with spiritually focused, problem solving counseling, you can begin to find a renewed sense of purpose, spirituality and inner happiness.

As a Christian I have seen first hand how God and his principles provide transformation and redemption in my life and in others' lives. In my practice, I utilize a Grace-based, Biblical approach as I believe Jesus provides true change and freedom. Often, it is our inadequate understanding of how God views us that leads to problems of poor self- worth, anxiety and depression. Many times, we can get caught up with "doing" for God rather than "abiding in Him". In our work together we will explore your relationship with God and identify how to strengthen it as well as how to apply Biblical truths to experience true freedom and healing.

Christian counseling combines principles of your faith with the principles of psychology to improve your behavioral health and relationships. This may involve use of scripture and biblical teachings to help you understands and learn how to deal with life's challenges. In other words, Christian counseling uses faith as the foundation and blueprint to help clients interpret the world, including problems, and learn how to respond to challenges with Christian based guidelines. This approach is tailored to individuals who follow the Christian faith so they can feel assured their functioning aligns with their faith.
