We emerged from a growing need in our area for faith-based counseling services from professionally trained counselors. We firmly believe in integration of scriptural principles with daily living, and that God can use the study of mind and human behavior to heal past wounds and present conflicts. Therefore, we work with pastors and Christian organizations to minister to the Body of Christ.
We are a para-church organization that differs from a private practice in that we are nonprofit, charitable, and tax-exempt ministry. We are committed to reaching as many persons as possible by offering affordable services from quality Christian professionals. While we do have an established fee, we also provide a sliding scale fee which takes into consideration family income and number of dependents.
Some churches help their members pay for counseling too. We are the only state-licensed and recognized mental health agency that identifies as a non-profit Christian ministry within a 50-mile radius. Our staff consists of male & female mental health counselors, social workers, art therapists, and marriage & family therapists.

To get the best outcome from counseling, it is important to establish an honest, open, and emotionally safe relationship with your counselor.
Your ability to openly share thoughts and feelings will directly affect the counseling process.
Counseling requires not only a time commitment, but a mental and emotional commitment to work toward growth and face one's problems.
The counseling process may feel stressful or overwhelming at times; symptoms may get worse before they get better; relationships may become strained temporarily; and one's sense of "normalcy" and everyday functioning may be briefly affected.
