Christian Counselling in Vernon
Faith based counselling in person
Your Faith Matters
You chose to believe that God is real and that he works in your life. You understand that you have purpose, calling, and even destiny. Even though life is hard for you right now because of relationship struggles, emotional overwhelm or stressed thinking, you still know that your creator knows and loves you.
Or maybe you doubt all that too. Maybe you are uncertain about your faith now and worry that you can’t believe all that anymore, but you still miss it somehow.
Finding a Christian Counsellor
Either way, you may still want a counsellor who does have faith and practices counselling that is faithful to your Christian ideals. You can’t tell from counsellor’s websites where they stand on spiritual and ethical questions. There are quite a few Christian counsellors in Vernon, but not all of them advertise as such, mostly to avoid scaring away other clients who are atheists or agnostics. Usually, you have to ask or read between the lines
Christian Counselling with Me
I am a practicing Christian who is also a counsellor. I take the bible seriously and do my best to apply scripture and Christian teaching to my own life. For counselling clients who want the same, we work together towards better behaviour, emotional healing, and relationship recovery as a spiritual journey, not just a psychological one.
Christianity and Psychology
Ancient wisdom has never gone out of date. Psychology research keeps discovering this. Consider this: Personal peace has always come from letting go of worry just like Jesus told us; cognitive therapy finds ways of helping us do exactly that. Relationships run best when partners see each other with kindness and understanding just like the attitude Jesus takes towards us. Modern marriage research shows that couples use love and respect to stay close, just as the New Testament tells us. The examples are endless.
The counselling psychology that I bring to our meetings will always be complimentary to your faith. Feel free to give me a call or send me a message to find out more.
