My Christian Faith and My Professional Practice
As a Christian who provides faith-based counseling, I adhere to a positive, ethical, encouraging, and compassionate approach rooted in biblical principles to help clients heal from past hurts, gain new coping skills, navigate their journey following loss, and learn about healthy boundaries.
