Biblical and Christian Counseling in 07735: Keyport, NJ.

Counseling is a way to look at who we are. Spirituality is a big part of the human experience. It is my belief that within each of us is a beautiful soul. Some of us allow god to be a big part of our lives, while others question the concept of souls, god and spirituality. Wherever you may stand, you may still identify with a deeper part of yourself. You may call it whatever feels right for you. I would like to help bring that energy into the room (if it feels right for you) to help you heal, from accessing a wholesome, powerful, deep source within you.

If your Christian faith is central to your life, it can be very powerful in incorporating your faith into your journey of healing. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, or other stressors, we can help. Our staff Christian counselor is a devout Christian personally as well as licensed counselor, and has training specifically in the integration of psychotherapy and biblical truths. Having a therapist who shares your faith and Christian worldview can be important in healing deep matters of the heart.

Truth. There are many paths to the Truth and different Faiths that guide people on that meaningful journey. I have enormous respect for seeking the truth and finding your faith to guide you. Your values, morals, and ethics are your code to happy, healthy living. Living in line with these brings joy and contentment...always. Living OUT of line with these qualities brings distress. Explore where and how you can live more in-line with your value system and how your faith is a secure and loving nest to fall into as you do.

I have been a Psychologist for 20 plus years. About 10 years ago, I took training in Pastoral Formation. After completing this program, I have been the chair of a Mental Health Ministry at a Catholic Church. Did you know that one of the best psychology books ever written was the Bible. In my therapy with clients who are open to their Christianity, we explore the use of their spirituality to help heal their wounds and create more fulfilled and meaningful life with " God" as the engine behind their personal power. The power of the spirit can enable tremendous personal and systemic growth and change.

Though I work with many folks who are not Christian in a more secular format, I hold a special place in my heart for fellow believers. Working with Christians gives a whole new dimension as well as tools that we can use based on God's promises that are not available to people of other faiths or who are agnostic/atheists. Having the same experience of God gives an extraordinary and powerful basis to work together.
