Mission:
We believe the holistic nature of the person in therapy requires a sensitivity to spiritual and physical concerns to avoid truncating the experience and resources of the individual. We believe each person has an inestimable worth and dignity. We believe each person has an eschatological destiny, to be with God forever in Heaven, and thus our experience in this “valley of tears” has an eternal meaning and value. We believe therapy should help remove the impediments to receiving and giving authentic love.
Our training and experience are built upon the premise of enriching the best of psychology with the truths of the Christian Tradition. We approach every interaction as an opportunity to bless the individual and community through sharing of knowledge and faithful witness to Christ.
