Part 3: A Faith-Inspired Path to Wholeness

Healing is a journey back to your truest self. Rogers taught that we’re born whole, but life’s pressures create a divide between our genuine self and the self we think we need to be accepted and "fit in" with the world around us. This incongruence, as he called it, fuels many of our struggles. His solution? A relationship built on empathy, authenticity, and unconditional acceptance. 

Rogers envisioned the therapist as a facilitator, not a director, asking, “How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for their own personal growth?”

• Accurate Empathy: We seek to truly understand your story, validating your experiences with professional         skill and heartfelt care.
Congruence: We are genuine and self-aware, aligning our actions with your faith to foster trust.
Unconditional Positive Regard: We see you as —worthy and redeemable—offering acceptance without           judgment, as we support your growth.

This approach isn’t passive—it’s active listening paired with gentle accountability, tailored to your unique story so you can grow and heal. As expert person-centered counselors Cloud and Townsend write, “As we experience comfort, identification, and truth without judgment, we begin to heal” (2001, pg. 154).

Whether you’re new to therapy or a current client seeking deeper insight, we invite you to experience this blend of Rogers’ legacy and faith-based care. Contact us today to start your journey toward congruence, healing, and hope.
