We are committed to providing a balanced and Biblical approach to counseling. By biblical counseling we mean that your counselor is a Christian with special training and experience in applying the truths of the Bible to life. We believe the Bible speaks to all of life and all of its problems, but it takes careful thought and prayerful wisdom to know how to make those connections. We do not believe the Bible is simply a how-to book for happiness. We are confident that through the Scriptures and the power of His Spirit, God has given us all the instruction necessary for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3-4). It is our joy to help real people, with real problems, using the Bible. Your counseling will be biblical, pastoral counseling in which the Scriptures are held as the final authority in all matters. If you are not sure that you will be interested in biblical counseling, you will have the option of attending one or two sessions to discover how biblical counseling may help you. Most importantly, we believe the Bible ultimately points us to a Person – the Lord Jesus Christ. We believe real change comes when people learn to see themselves and their problems in the context of a living, vital relationship with Christ. This does not mean that you must be a Christian to profit from our counseling, although we believe deep and lasting change is brought about only by God himself. Because of this, we do not use the Bible in a superficial or heavy-handed way.
