Addictions

We believe that addiction is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. In many cases sobriety can make the difference between life or death. To remedy this condition, a Christ centered 12-step recovery model is embraced in our soul care counseling.

Grief and Loss

As biblical soul care providers we are committed to leading a person or couple into the presence of the Holy Spirit to tap into God's power for overcoming life's tragic circumstances.

Depression and Anxiety

Depression and anxiety can be a result of unresolved fear, anger and resentment. Soul care is a safe place to uncover these emotional and thinking patterns that can sometimes be the root of the problem.

Marriage

We are a husband and wife soul care team that represents female and male perspectives. We are also intimately familiar with blended family dynamics in marriage. This approach and experience provides a much more vivid context for healing and restoration with biblical soul care.
