Are you struggling in your walk with God? Is your anxiety/depression making you feel less connected to God? Are you seeking freedom, but are unsure how to get there? Please know that there is a way to find that freedom in Christ and if you are willing to walk through some very structured work, I can help facilitate you coming out of the dark place you find yourself in and bring you back into the light or maybe bring you into the light for the first time. The Bible speaks about fear and how it keeps us in slavery. Ever wonder how to get out of it? I can offer practical ways to do just that. Accepting FL, KS and NY insurance.
Biblical/Christian counseling is the foundation of my practice. I offer a safe, non-judgmental environment for you to be heard and seen and to dig into the roots of what is causing your distress. I am also a holistic practitioner focusing on physical health to strengthen your mental health. Let's work together to get you free! Accepting FL insurance.
Each person that enters counseling in my practice is considered unique and will be treated fairly without fear of judgment. Every person will be assessed according to their individual needs and we will discuss your goals for treatment. We can plan for short term or long term treatment according to where you are in your stage of change. Accepting FL ins.
