We are more than your counselors—we are your brothers/sisters-in-Christ who love you with His love. We are equipped at the master’s and doctoral levels (at both theology-grounded seminary and research-driven university programs) to apply practical theology through clinical evidence-based psychotherapeutic methods. We are motivated to sacrifice our own resources and pay out-of-pocket on your behalf when your family, church, and even care team fails you. We are called to be genuine reminders of God the Father’s love for you, humble servant-leaders following God the Son to walk alongside you, and reliable advocates praying for God the Spirit to empower you. Would you like us to know you as we come to know God together? {Ephesians 3:14-21; 1 Kings 3:7-9; 1 Peter 2:9-12}

The world is broken for all to see, yet we are in a spiritual war that most cannot see; resulting in despair, fear, anxiousness, grief, pain, and temptation. But while the list is long, nothing is too complicated or unfamiliar to our Creator. Our goal should not be to simply manage or deal with the symptoms of depression, trauma, anxiety, bereavement, abuse, and addiction. Are you tired of confining yourself to the negative limitations of your condition?

here is beauty in God’s story and that is what we seek to uncover. By bringing the whole counsel of God to bear on every burden, we can be reconciled with our Heavenly Father and be realigned to His purpose for us. Our goal is to have a broader perspective, despite how you may be suffering today, as well as have hope for the future by growing deeper in the things that truly matter. Are you ready to leave the safety of denial/avoidance for the risky but infinitely positive possibilities that God offers by faith? {Hebrews 4:13-16; Acts 20:27-32; Psalm 139:24-40}

Time is of the essence—no matter the time of day or night. There is no stage of personal development or part of the family lifecycle that we are not called to grow: childhood, adolescence, adulthood, marriage, parenting, and elder-care. Schedule counseling sessions at any time that you need, in all seasons of life. If you are debating whether you are ready to receive help yet, then be encouraged that it is never too soon to be comforted and never too late to repent. Would you like to answer God’s call today? {Proverbs 17:17; 1 Peter 5:6-8; Philippians 1:3-6}

We may feel isolated—particularly during a pandemic. But the whole earth is filled with God’s glory, and we always exist Coram Deo (in His presence). We don’t have to travel far to seek refuge in Him—all we have to do is turn toward Him—He is right there. As His ambassadors, we meet in the middle of storms or at the bottom of pits via Facetime, Google Meet, Skype, or Zoom. Would you like us to meet you where you are? {Isaiah 6:2; Psalm 46:1-3; Revelation 21:1}

People have been broken both spiritually and physically for thousands of years. In the last century and a half, with the church focused on the former but not the latter, people had to look for help from other places. Sadly, there are now 400+ secular psychotherapies that compete with one another—downplaying our spiritual identities at best, and disavowing our failing relationships with God at worst. Biblical counseling maintains the highest value on human life—regardless of the things that we have gone through, whether because of others or our own body/brain limitations (i.e., feeling helpless or tempted to do what we shouldn’t). Would you like us to care for you both spiritually and physically? {Jeremiah 23:23-29; Ephesians 4:17-25; 1 John 4:11-12}

Our clinical approach is guided by the Biblical method of humbly engaging and lovingly processing together so that we can pray to our God who sustains, heals, and saves us. Treatment requires assuming neither that we know you before you share your struggles, nor that your experience is the same as that for anyone else. (Confidentiality is assured except for instances of potential/actual harm to self or others.) Only in fully understanding your personal challenges and relational conflicts can Biblical truth be carefully applied through evidence-based methods made possible by common grace. Then, we joyfully encourage good efforts, compassionately share in hard burdens, and gently restore you from bad decisions. By equally addressing motivation, emotion, cognition, and volition, your growth is nurtured as an essential part of God’s overarching story. Would you like to explore your issues through a careful step-by-step process that shows your story from different angles? * The process for groups is slightly nuanced. Speak with an ICHTHYSroe Groups Supervisor for more information specific to our experiential process, psychoeducation, or support groups. {2 Corinthians 1:3-5; Colossians 4:2-6; 1 Peter 4:9-11}
