Counseling and Mentoring
In order to become successful in any endeavor, whether it is personal, business or ministry oriented, we must first deal with any areas in our life that may hinder us from progressing in a way that is impactful and purposeful. Without getting to the root of our life issues we will simply gloss over serious emotional and spiritual issues that later spring up, often unexpectly, as weeds that grow and choke out our hopes, dreams, confidence and faith.
My inner Life Strategic coaching and mentoring program is designed to help you to work through even the most traumatic issues in your life. With hands on guidance and support I will help you to work your way to freedom and success.
Everyone has been hurt in this life. However, few people are able to find purpose in the pain and then let it go so they can move on with their lives without the past adversely effecting their future.
People often get stuck in their anger , disappointment, regret and pain after they've been hurt not knowing that there are spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical reasons why it is difficult to either release the pain or allow the pain to fuel a passion that will be a powerful influencing force to bless the lives of others.
One area that can make it difficult to release the past is the misunderstanding of what pain is and its purpose in our lives. Pain is an indicator that something in our lives needs to be addressed. In order to eradicate negative behaviors and the underlying causes for many of our illnesses and mental instability, the pain must be properly dealt with.
I have spent years developing strategies, plans and exercises from teaching you what pain is and its purpose in your life to showing you how to release the past traumas from your life through self-awareness and care, changing your thought process, discovering how to manage your feelings, forgiveness and more.
I am not a novice to counseling, mentoring and coaching people and have been doing so for over 20 years. I am a licensed and ordained minister, Senior Pastor and Founder of Greater Hope Restoration Ministries. I served on the leadership team under my pastor for nearly 15 years, five years as an evangelist and the remaining years as the Executive Pastor before becoming a church planter and lead pastor. I am a graduate of Shiloh Bible Institute with a certificate in ministerial studies. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Biblical Studies, a Master's Degree in Biblical Counseling as well as a Doctorate in Pastoral Ministry.
