Mission and Philosophy
The Genesis Counseling Group is dedicated to excellence in
counseling and personal growth, with a special emphasis on serving the
Christian community. We do our best to practice what we preach. Each
of our therapists is a committed Christian who is actively involved in
his or her own personal growth.
As a Christian Counseling center we are dedicated to seeing each
person grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ. GCG seeks to be
a refuge for those who have been hurt by dogmatic, judgmental and
legalistic forms of religion. We respect the relationship of each
individual to God and trust the Spirit and the truth to guide each
person in their life direction.
At GCG, we believe that each individual is inherently valuable and
created in the image of God. We hold each person’s life as a journey
that God intends to be both nourishing as well as character building.
Since character and maturity are most often born out of adversity, we
seek to support each other to learn and grow from our challenges and
live to our highest.
The foundation of our approach to counseling is the central
teachings of Christianity and we build upon these principles by drawing
from the wisdom and techniques of many theories and schools of
psychology.
Our model of therapy strongly emphasizes the need for each
individual to assume responsibility for his and her own happiness and
well-being. We support living in accord with principles, such as
truth, love, fulfillment and responsibility.
Although we have a distinctive interest in the struggles common to
the Christian community, our desire is to respect and serve people of
all faiths and cultures.
