Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
There are many who state they are Christian Counselors, but when it comes to counseling they leave out God's word. As an Ordained Minister of the Gospel with many years of experience pastoring and leading Christian organizations, I am very qualified to help individuals struggling with their Christian faith. I have found that when a person struggles with their faith in God, they will also struggle in other areas of their lives. I prefer to think that I am more of an mediator between my client and the Lord who is very present in the counseling session.

Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I incorporate Christian counseling by integrating psychological principles with the teachings and values of Christianity. Grounded in faith, I will create a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their concerns, utilizing prayer, scriptural wisdom, and theological insights as integral components of the therapeutic process. Christian counseling involves addressing mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of a person's life, recognizing the interconnectedness of these dimensions. I draw upon biblical guidance to provide perspective on issues such as forgiveness, purpose, and resilience. Integrating prayer and scripture into therapeutic interventions, I collaborate with clients to explore how their faith can be a source of strength, healing, and transformation. This approach aims to foster holistic well-being, encouraging individuals to navigate life's challenges in alignment with their Christian beliefs and values.
