Phone counselling,
Online audio / video, email

working through issues as an alternative to the standard Office appointments we
also offer
(see
Online & Phone Counseling).
In our
Resources section we have a number of
links, books, articles, essays & seminar notes that may be of help as a
supplement to counseling.
Context of our Value Base
Our counseling services are available
to both Christians & non-Christians alike (as per our
Mission Statement), & for both we integrate our spirituality only to the degree that people request & are
comfortable with.
We are respectful
of others being in somewhat different places than we are in the life journeys we walk out, & are also aware that many have been hurt or offended
religiously by others in their past.
We do not try to force our Christian value base or
beliefs on others, although it can at times affect what goals we feel
comfortable about being able to work on with others, because
there are a handful of moral & spiritual issues where we will not be
comfortable in counseling contrary to our beliefs. These issues generally
do not tend to come up in most people's counseling though.
We come from a spiritual, biblical
perspective so when requested we also function as pastoral counselors / counsellors
in addition to being professional counselors, marriage & family therapists.
We are very comfortable with prayer & the inclusion
of scripture where this is requested & desired, yet even
then it will be integrated only
to the degree that people are
comfortable with.
Who we are : MSW + years counselling experience
Please feel free to book Online & Phone counselling appointments as an alternative to our Office
appointments
