My personal testimony started in the early 90’s, but it continues till this day because God continues to reveal how amazing He is through me and through other people. I usually tell people I should be dead or incarcerated because of the lifestyle of addiction I led. I can honestly say God helped me through all my college and graduate work. I didn’t know what to study after receiving my bachelor’s degree in psychology, but He was faithful to lead me into the field of Counseling and Therapy. The name Greater Things Counseling and Healing was birthed after reading John 14:12 in the 90’s, but it wasn’t established until 2021. If there was a name for the type of Christian Counseling I do, it would be, The Messiah Method, because I believe my desire should be His desire, to see people Healed, Delivered and Saved. I prayer in the sessions and always invite God to encounter us in a new and fresh way.
