Christian Mental Health Coaching

For decades the word Christian and Mental Health did not go together. With mental health issues at an all-time high and the realization that Christians are not exempt from these issues, Christian Mental Health Coaching is becoming a widely accepted solution for those who are seeking hope and want to thrive as they become who God created them to be.

Coaching and counseling differ in their approach. Illuminate offers a holistic integrated counseling/coaching approach to look at the complicated intersections between a survivor’s mind, body, and spirit, and their past and present through counseling and explore future goals and dreams through coaching.

 Millions of people are impacted annually by mental health issues either for themselves or those they love. For people of faith, finding Christian solutions can be difficult. Christian Mental Health Coaches are committed to :

  • Honor God, submitted to the Holy Spirit
  • Follow biblical truth and Scriptural teaching
  • Apply clinical excellence and competency of care

Illuminate is grounded in the Scriptural call to renew the mind by transforming thoughts and patterns with God’s truth. (Romans 12:2)

Illuminate offers compassionate care for mind, body, and spirit using Scripture as the basis for practical daily application of Scripture to heal the whole person body, mind, and spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:23).

Illuminate helps carry burdens in the process of restoring hope for those who are struggling in specific areas of life. Partnering in the process of transformation can make all the difference between surviving and thriving.(Galatians 6:2)
