We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit ministry deeply committed to counseling people in need through our whole-person wellness model and to training counselors across our nation to do the same. Our goal is to reclaim counseling for Christ in making it integrative and comprehensive through a biblically-based, clinically-informed, and whole-person oriented approach that helps all build their lives upon the rock.

We understand that our culture increasingly speaks a psychological language, and that mental health ideologies have steered many away from foundational truths. To effectively minister to and heal people through counseling, we believe it is vital to understand the prevailing cultural discourse, much like Jesus did, while consistently and ultimately directing individuals toward the Truth.

Presently, with over 1.2 million mental health providers in America, fewer than 5% of these identify as Christian. It is even more disheartening that many within this group practice “Christian counseling” minimally and ineffectively, while often unknowingly perpetuate false ideologies. Those who stand firm in the faith as godly counselors currently hold a position of less than 1% strong in the totality of American counselors. We hold firmly to the belief that Jesus is the definitive “Wonderful Counselor” (Isaiah 9:6), and that counseling fundamentally belongs to Him. Although counseling has historically been connected with the church for thousands of years, it has now been hijacked by the overreach of “mental healthcare.”

We are convinced that God has a restorative plan, calling people throughout America to once again embrace the necessity and vitality of well-equipped Christian counseling through a biblically based, clinically informed, and whole-person oriented model. This is a call to help those who are hurting with counsel that is genuinely true, loving, wise, and comprehensive, in addressing every facet of one’s being and prioritizing their spiritual health above all else.

Reclaiming Counseling for Christ

Christians Have Been Called and Given Authority to Counsel

---

Counseling needs change. Truth needs resurrection. People need solidification. Over time, it appears the counseling field has gradually moved away from its grounding in what we understand to be God’s intentions. From the foundational ideas of figures such as Sigmund Freud and Abraham Maslow to many contemporary practices, there is a perception that society has deviated from a truly holistic understanding of the body, mind, and soul, and that current mental healthcare approaches have not achieved their stated purpose. It seems that core truths have been set aside, at times in favor of methodologies that might offer temporary ease but ultimately distance individuals from God and then adversely affect themselves and those around them. This kind of guidance can cultivate dependence, weakness, self-centeredness, entitlement, and isolation, which stands in contrast to the Christian principles of strength through faith, service, and our vital connection to God and the Body of Christ.

It is our conviction that we should strongly reconsider relativistic perspectives and an over-reliance on simplistic solutions and “professional listening”. Moreover, it is prudent to reject the priority given to the mind over the spirit in conventional mental health practices.

Our hope is for a future where people are well-prepared to withstand the storms of life through counseling that is biblically grounded, informed by clinical understanding, and focused on the well-being of the whole person. Our Integrated Biblical Counselors do not function under the restrictions of insurance systems or secular norms, but rather on the firm basis of God’s Word, with the guidance of His Spirit, and in harmony with His created order.

We believe the time is opportune for our nationwide community of Christian brothers and sisters to join us in reclaiming counseling for Christ. By empowering individuals to provide authentic healing, strength, and meaningful transformation, we can help people everywhere build their lives upon the rock.

Integrated Biblical Counseling

God’s Hierarchy of Needs: Building Lives Upon the Rock

A Whole-Person Wellness Model

---

Integrated biblical counseling is an enhanced approach to counseling that is biblically based, clinically informed, and whole-person oriented. It is explicitly designed to help people in body, mind, and soul.

Our counselors employ a whole-person wellness model to facilitate transformation, healing, and both personal and relational development. This is accomplished by teaching and guiding people to solidify their lives in all essential dimensions: spiritual, relational, emotional, personal, mental, physical, and eternal – a structure we call God’s Hierarchy of Needs.

We invite you to begin your transformation by starting your counseling journey with us.
