George Smith
Credentialed Chaplain (CC)
About
I am a retired Army Chaplain who struggled with a sexual / porn addiction for many years and did not know how to break free from it. I received the tools to use and get out of it and have since been using those tools to help many groups of men and individuals break free from their sex / pornography addictions.
I have enjoyed the journey with these men helping them get free. This has always felt like a ministry to me. I have felt the Lord pulling me outside of my local area to assist other men in breaking free.
I am a Nationally Certified Pastoral Counselor recognized by the National Board for Certified Counselor and a member of the following professional organizations:
• American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC)
• International Institution for Trauma & Addiction Professionals (IITAP)
• International Christian Coaching Institution (ICCI)
