Restoration and The Healing Process: How Pastoral Counseling is Different.

We are dedicated to serving God through serving the community at large. Here people of faith can find an oasis where problems of all types can be discussed in a safe, healthy, and confidential environment. We believe that all good things come from God, hence, there is no real conflict between Scripture and solid science. Conflicts come about only when there is an incomplete or inaccurate understanding of one, the other, or both.

Christian counseling and Pastoral counseling focus on an individual's ability to choose a better way of living--a blessing given to every human being by God who chooses to accept it.  This gift, when embraced fully can help an individual develop a desire to love unconditionally, which can restore a person not only to God but also to each other.  When such a gift is rejected, love can become hardened--it can also become unforgiving and controlling, resulting in destroying the very relationships that are the most meaningful to us as human beings.

In a pastoral counseling and Christian counseling environment, the counselor works with God in a way that is meaningful to the client.  Collaboratively, the counselor and client work together so that the client can better understand how God can influence the treatment process.  We live in a very diverse part of the country, hence, each faith system is respected and used in a way that is meaningful to the client.  A pastoral counselor or Christian counselor does not impose his or her own faith system on the client, but again, he or she works with the client to find his or her way through the presenting problem within his/her faith system. 

God's grace is unending.  It is towards this end, we hope to serve you in your journey back to peace and psychological health.  We invite you to browse our website and prayerfully ask for God’s leading in your life.
