About
Looking thru the lens of Col. 3:23 and Prov. 4:23, we help our clients learn how to invite the Holy Spirit right into the middle of their mess. How to discover their true identity as God sees them, so they can use the Truth to set them free. We show our clients how to actually put into action Proverbs 3:5-6, to “invite to think right” in super practical steps. Our focus is on solutions … not just problem talk. Before the Lord got hold of me, I was a secular therapist — so I know what works, and what doesn’t. We see client in sessions online, by phone, and in person. We are a referral resource for Focus On The Family and Psychology Today. Ask the Lord if this is where He has led you, and it would be my privilege working with you so you live what He came to give you — “that they may have life, and have it more abundantly.” Dr. Browning
NOTE: If you’d like to get an up-close “feel” for the kind of Christian therapy provided, you might want to check out Dr. Browning’s new book, “How To Win The Battle Over Your STINKIN’ THINKIN’ — One Thought, One Choice At A Time: Replacing Toxic Lies With God’s Truth To Conquer Anxiety, Anger, Addictions And Other Emotional Strongholds;” now available on Amazon.com.
