Our Mission & 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.
