"Whether we need to resolve emotional, mental or spiritual wounds, to search for a new path for our future, or to find meaning for life, my goal as a Christian Counselor is to empower individuals, children, adolescents, couples and
families by exploring unused potentials to self-discovery, freedom and healing."
​
“They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run,
and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.” — Isaiah 40:31
Philosophy of Christian Counseling:
In constant search for truth and meaning of life, my existential quest and spiritual journey has traveled through time and continents. I believe no one develops alone. No one survives alone. Each one of us is placed here and now in time and space with extraordinary people in our life for continuity of human purpose that has been designed from the creation of time by our Creator. I look forward to having an opportunity to meet with you. Come as you are! Enter through a new door of hope. Transform pain into healing! Emerge with peace. Become the new you! Manifest your dream! Have a full and authentic life.
