Biblical and Christian Counseling in 28128: Norwood, NC.

I work with people to integrate their spiritual beliefs into their lives and the situations in which they are struggling. I am very involved in my own Christian faith, however, it is not about my faith but the person's belief that is seeking guidance. I am very aware of the different Christian and religious beliefs and help people draw on their own beliefs/religious traditions in their spiritual relationship with God.

I believe there can be true complete healing when God is involved in therapy. I am willing to offer spiritual guidance to my clients when they request it. If they prefer not to have God involved, I respect their decision. I use Scripture and prayer in my sessions when the client informs me that God is very important in their life. God is a loving, forgiving God and I want my clients to feel that through me.

Christian Counseling is the foundation in the work I do as a therapist. No matter what a client may be going through, I work with them to meet them where they are spiritually - very directly at times incorporating prayer, Bible verses and Biblical concepts; or indirectly, using foundational beliefs woven into the techniques and interventions I use in sessions. I believe it is vital to a person's growth and healing to understand the power of finding Christ in all situations and using that knowledge to overcome their obstacles.

My main approach to Christian counseling is being active and involved in your well being through sanctification. I truly believe in the Spiritual approach that God is a healer and take you through a Biblical process of this healing. I reference the Bible as we come up with life's challenges and find ways to deal with them. I structure this and use Eccelssiates 7:4 where it talks about :what is it about loss that is so painful that one cannot enter into the "house of mourning". As a foundational approach in this area.
