"Redeemed Counseling provides a comfortable atmosphere to discuss private and often challenging situations. Knowing that the cornerstone of their ministry is Christ centered counseling,provides assurance that the counsel you receive is wise and Bible based. My counselor, Mary has been very kind and patient while providing honest and wise counseling throughout my journey. When my finances changed, she offered to look into options for me to attend on a reduced payment schedule. If that option would not have been available, I likely would have changed to a secular counseling provider through my insurance. I was not comfortable with making that change and felt a lack of peace with seeking counsel that did not have a Christian foundation as the cornerstone of their organization. I sincerely appreciate everything Mary did to look into those options and am grateful that the reduced payment schedule was approved. I also want to thank the individuals that provide financial support to Redeemed Counseling to make situations like mine possible. Your generosity is making a ripple effect in helping save individuals and their families. God bless you all for your support!" ~ counselee

I wasn't free, and it felt like death DID have a grip on me, but I still knew that Jesus was my only hope. So, in light of our conversation yesterday about how scary and dark that time was, and how far I've come since then, I just wanted to share...
I thank God for how far He has led me since then...how He continues to bring healing to my heart...how gentle and loving He has been with me. Thank you for walking alongside me." ~ counselee

"We were both ready to end our marriage of many many years. It was because of God, our children and grandchildren, that we decided to work on it. In the past several months of meeting with our Christian counselor (Mary) , our marriage has become renewed in a way only Christ can do. Yes, we worked hard while in counseling, and God blessed us in ways we never thought possible. Our entire family is blessed and the glory goes to our Father." ~ testimony from a couple

(We) are doing great! I have to say that we both have seen considerable growth in our relationship, it all goes back to what you taught us, putting God in the center. (He) has been very intentional in us praying together and I am proud of him for taking leadership in that. We have also worked hard to turn off the TV and talk to each other :-) It has been wonderful! I am very grateful to God for the strides we see in our relationship with Him and with each other. Thank you for the wisdom you spoke into us in our meetings. God is using you as a tool to bring healing and I rejoice at the testimonies that will come back to you and all the wonderful people you work with.~ testimony from a couple
Having had multiple counseling experienced throughout my youth which were not fruitful, I was pleasantly surprised and honored to have been aided by this experience. I appreciated that Jesus was incorporated both into our marriage counseling and personal homework each week. The temperament program gave focus to the sessions while allowing us to work through specific and unique issues as they arose. Mary was truthful but kind in her mediation of our points of contention. We appreciated that she was willing to dive in and challenge us both in our marriage and in our own spiritual lives. Even as believers, we compartmentalize our life away from Jesus sometimes. It was very helpful to have a counselor who was willing to let Jesus' light shine into all the areas of darkness in our marriage.
We appreciated that you made sure to understand that based on our (temperaments) we have different approaches to conflict, and you helped us talk through how our (temperament) differences influence our expectations of each other.
Our marriage, communication, and understanding of each other continues to grow even after our sessions have ended.
Thank you for giving us a counseling experience I can rave about.~ testimony from a couple
