"The purposes of a man's heart are deep waters, but a man of understanding draws them out."
Proverbs 20:5
Introduction
Heart Journey Christian Counseling, LLC (HJCC) exists to provide Christian-based, clinically-sound counseling to individuals, couples, and families so that people reign in life and live abundantly free in their thoughts, emotions, health, and relationships. All counseling approaches are carefully examined regarding their consistency with scripture, as well as clinical appropriateness.
​
Christian-Based
HJCC recognizes the Bible as incorruptible, the foundation of all truth, and positions us to walk in the fullness of what Jesus Christ purchased for us.
The framework of HJCC is established on the foundational understanding that human beings are a unique triune of spirit, soul, and body (I Thessalonians 5:23). Experiencing true health and wholeness comes when all three parts work in harmony with God’s thoughts and will toward you. HJCC endeavors to provide a unique marriage of services that balances, strengthens, and harmonizes the triune through biblical truths, inner healing, and clinical interventions.
​
HJCC acknowledges God as the healer, counselor, and change agent and believes that you can hear His voice (John 10:27; John 14:26). Therefore, HJCC endeavors to not just talk about God in counseling but to invite Him to search your heart and guide each session, thereby, strengthening your connection to Him. Integrating this form of prayer into counseling has greatly enhanced Christian counseling.
​
Clinically-Sound
The goal of treatment is change and transformation (Romans 12:2). HJCC is committed to your journey of change and growth; therefore, I am continuously learning, consulting with other professionals, as well as staying active in my professional associations.
HJCC believes that significant healing and growth can occur in the context of therapeutic relationships, so you are engaged in the treatment process and your strengths are used as resources for change and growth.
HJCC is strength-based and trauma-informed and draws from an array of therapeutic models and interventions, such as Family Systems Theory, Psychodynamic Theory, Experiential Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Strategic Trauma and Recovery, as well as other modalities.
This is just a glimpse of what integrated, Christian-based treatment involves at HJCC. Everyone’s plan of care is tailor-made with the guidance of the Holy Spirit coupled with the knowledge base God has enabled me to acquire to guide you to wholeness.
