Hi,

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

My name is Dr. Olivet Neethipudi, and I am a certified Coach. I can guide, and mentor anyone through Christian worldview, irrespective of their location and with a wide age range starting from adoescence to older adulthood. To walk you through my personal testimony, I was raised in a closely knitted Christian home and married into an ordained pastor’s family. My husband and I are married for 25 years and raised our two boys who are in their colleges now. In my God’s given life’s journey, I completed my doctoral degree in educational psychology, trained as a coach at Light University, affiliated to American Association of Christian Counselors, and connected with the Christian Care Connect and wanted to mentor and coach my co-travellers/clients who needs help with a Christ-centered approach. My husband and I traveled to and lived in different geographical locations experiencing different cultures so closely, while witnessing God’s ultimate love expressed differently but very closely. Whenever, we relocated to a different location because of my husband’s job, we were challenged with many obstacles, and required to navigate difficult terrains while learning to adjust to the new location and raising our two boys. My husband and I navigated those challenges without much help from our extended family because of our traveling, but with the loving support of the church and God’s people, literally, our support came from strangers who turned out to be angels sent from God above. Amidst of many challenges, one thing remained unchanged and gave us the hope to move forward, that is, the Bible Scripture, and the Love of God with His unwavering guidance. The scripture that guided me is, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” – Proverbs, 3:5-6; and the scripture that gave me hope to move forward is, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” – Jeremiah 29:11. So, these scriptures which guided me and gave me hope became a part of me and I painted them as painting that hangs on out living room walls whenever we relocate. My faith and Christ-centered guidance are my approach to counseling/coaching.
