What Is Christian Counseling?
Abundant Grace International employs a method of Discipleship Counseling utilizing spiritual, Biblical principles. In this kind of counseling, the Holy Spirit, not the counselor, is The Counselor, and God becomes the agent of change, provided the counselee cooperates with Him. Our goal is to convey a way of freedom from mental and emotional symptoms, family and marital conflict, as well as other difficulties.
Who Is Counseling For?
Our desire is to minister the New Covenant of Grace to those who desire to walk in freedom from any difficulties in which they find themselves. In addition, we disciple Christians who come with “no presenting” problem other than to grow in their walk with Christ.
What Can I Expect?
Abundant Grace International offers an initial intake session to discuss your needs and goals. Every session with our counselors is confidential as well as offered in a safe, comfortable setting.
1. How Do I Start the Counseling Process?
Call our office at 864-553-3866 to set up an initial appointment. We offer a safe and confidential intake to discuss your presenting problem.
2. How long do the sessions last?
Regular counseling sessions are fifty minutes in length and normally begin on the hour. This constitutes one counseling hour. You may expect at least 4-6 months of sessions; however, timing does vary based on client goals and needs.
3. How much does counseling cost?
Our counseling sessions start with an initial consultation for $95.00. Individual and couples counseling sessions are offered on a sliding monetary scale. The services we provide can be life changing and have lasting value, therefore, we encourage you to not only invest time and energy into your counseling but to make a financial investment as well.
4. What if I don’t live near the Abundant Grace office?
We offer online counseling for out of area clients. We have counseled people across America and internationally.
