My name is Lincoln Shelton, and I am the owner/Clinical Director of Higher Ground Counseling.

I am blessed to say that at HGC, we have a variety of trained, professional counselors, all who are faith-based and eager to meet you where you’re at on your journey.

Our approach at Higher Ground Counseling is grounded in best practices and evidence-based
curriculum. We are committed to providing the most effectve treatment modalites, informed
by the latest research in mental health. A key aspect of our services is the incorporaton of a
Christian worldview, which allows us to offer counseling that not only addresses psychological
and emotonal needs but also supports the spiritual beliefs and values of our clients.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC, MHSP) I specialize in a range of services, including:
• Individual Counseling
• Marriage and Family Therapy
• Group Counseling Sessions
• Faith-Based Counseling
• Substance Abuse Counseling
• Treatment for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, stress management, and
trauma-related disorders

We recognize the significant impact of substance abuse in our community and offer specialized
counseling to help individuals and their families overcome these challenges. HGC is a licensed
intensive outpatent treatment program (IOP) for substance abuse. Our goal is to provide a
supportive environment where clients can work towards recovery and regain control of their
lives.
Higher Ground Counseling PLLC is proud to accept many insurances and self-paying clients,
