What is your counseling model?

We provide a faith-based approach in dealing with the issues, problems, and challenges of life to individuals, couples (married, unmarried, engaged), and adolescents. Our approach is a way of finding freedom and peace, instead of anxiety, fear and depression, and conflict; by understanding and embracing the grace and truth revealed in God's word. We are compassionate listeners, but we offer more than support. We also do a series of teachings as part of our sessions. For counseling to be effective, a willing attitude and an openness to be transformed is essential on the part of the client.

🗨️

Are my counseling sessions confidential?

Please understand that this is a safe place. Your confidentiality will be of utmost importance. The staff adhere to a professional code of ethics. The confidentiality of your visit, your files, and your discussion with us are protected by ethical practice. In addition, we use white noise machines for another layer of privacy. We adhere to all HIPAA privacy laws. There are, however, a few important confidentiality exceptions you should know.

Limits of Confidentiality:

We are required by law to notify relevant others for the following to ensure to the safety of clients and others:

1. If you say or do something that threatens your safety or life, (i.e. suicide);

2. If you say or do something that threatens the life or safety of others;

3. If there is known or suspected child or elder abuse.
