Counseling is about values, about beliefs regarding oneself, about physical health, family of origin, and learning to trust a loving God.

Helping Families and Individuals find solutions to the emotional and situational challenges of life.
Marriage Counseling

Premarital Counseling
Before marriage, couples will discover each others strengths and weaknesses, expectations and assumptions. Couples learn to experience healthy conflict resolution. Personality inventories, love languages and life practices that promote love and respect are the nuts and bolts of premarital counseling.

"Saving your marriage before it starts" and "Saving your second marriage before starts" by Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott are the texts used.

Marriage Counseling
Marriage is the most intimate, gratifying and frustrating relationship in our lives, besides those with our children. When God said, "and the two shall become one flesh, he didn't say how wonderful and how difficult this grafting could be. Marriage demands a level of maturity that we all struggle to reach at times. Counseling helps us to focus on that process and not mislabel and blame the revealing of our short coming on each other.
Brief Strategic Family Therapy
Individual Counseling
Parent-Child Interaction Therapy

Improving family functioning by correcting negative interactional patterns by resolving conflicts and increasing family members' sense of belonging.
Individuals are not islands. We are connected to people and responsibilities in ways that bring out the worst or the best in us. We are often connected to a life script that is in conflict with reality, or even hurtful to our ability to value ourselves as God values us.

If you are struggling with mood, anger, depression or euphoria, you will find professional help to diagnose and treat these and others ailments.

Families are the foundation of a stable culture and a stable individual. This is where love and respect, responsibility and compromise, where security and confidence are modeled and learned. It is also where we pick up much of our distorted thinking and personal pain.

What a wonderful blessing for relationships to be healed, and understanding, acceptance and forgiveness to be experienced in our families, our children and with God.
Addictions

18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing.
20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
21 So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
22 For in my inner being I delight in God’s law;
23 but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me.

The Apostle Paul
Romans Seven
Spiritual Needs

PHILOSOPHICAL FOUNDATION
Psychological issues often are related to Spiritual issues and ethical values. The psychological makeup of human beings is spiritual in nature. Deep in Men and women is "the work of the Law written in the heart, their conscience also bearing witness, and the thoughts between one another accusing or even excusing one another" Romans 2:15

This "law" is the moral basis of human nature. Counseling is an exploration of these values--our failures there in, our challenges with, our denials of and our unseen potentials toward them. This journey requires forgiveness! Forgiveness through God's grace-- forgiveness of ourselves as God wills, and our willingness to forgive "those who have transgressed against us."

"Forgetting the things which are behind and reaching forward to the things before me, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:13-14

Mental Health Awareness
Mental health is a state of emotional, psychological, and socialwell-being.
The things in our everyday life that affect our emotional, psychological,and social well-being are:

● To belong:
We need to belong to something greater than ourselves. We need community, people who resonate with us, know that we are valued, especially by God.
● Authentic Expression:
The ability to fully be ourselves and express our truths. We need to feel we don't have to self-censor, mask who we are, what we think and feel.
“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye maybe healed.” James 5:16
● Purpose:
We need to feel as though we're doing something that contributes to the greater good of our families, friends, and communities.
“For I know the plans I have for you,”declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you
hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11
● Freedom:
Free will ia the ability to choose for ourselves which leads to confidence. Humans feel most stressed when they lack choice.
“He that the Son sets free is free indeed.” John 8:36
● To love and be loved:
Love is the truth of who we are. We need to love others, ourselves and we need to be loved. This is our natural state of mutual giving, sharing, and accepting.
“I have loved thee with an everlasting love: with lovingkindness have Idrawn thee.” Jeremiah 31:3
● Meaning:
Life has suffering and joy. We need meaning in our lives to make sense of the suffering we experience.
“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy tobe compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” Romans 8:18
