(Upon Request)
Upon request I offer the integration of Christianity in counseling for parents and/or their child. While all beliefs and forms of spirituality are respected, my approach to integration is based on an understanding of God and a value system based on Biblical principles. The counseling space is a place of acceptance without judgement and a safe place to explore the Biblical view of parenting, loving discipline, and life skills for children. Not everyone shares my Christian worldview and that is okay. I make no presumptions or assumptions about the faith, values and beliefs of my families who do not wish such integration. Please discuss your comfort level with me regarding any concerns you may have with these practices.
Common Issues Explored From a Biblical View
- Role and Responsibilities of Parents
- Loving Discipline and Behavioral Standards
- Social Skills (communication, relationships, loving/respecting others)
- Emotional Skills (healthy coping, purpose of emotions)
- Coping with Suffering and Traumatic Experiences
- Spiritual Healing (self-worth, acceptance, forgiveness, purpose)
- Community Outreach (helping/serving others)
