About Us
At Livinggrace, we believe true healing and transformation come from God through the power of the Holy Spirit. Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to walk through them alone. We provide compassionate, biblically grounded counseling—entirely online—for individuals, couples, and families. Whether you’re facing grief, anxiety, relationship struggles, or spiritual confusion, we’re here to walk beside you with prayerful support and God’s unchanging truth. We're committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space for people to explore their struggles and find hope, healing, and restoration in Christ.
Our Counseling Approach
At Livinggrace Biblical Counseling, we believe true healing isn’t just emotional or behavioral—it’s spiritual. Biblical counseling is a Christ-centered approach to care that looks to God’s Word as the ultimate guide for life, healing, and restoration.
Unlike secular counseling, which often draws on humanistic psychology or evolving social norms, biblical counseling is grounded in timeless truth. We view each person as beautifully created in God’s image yet affected by the brokenness of sin—and we believe lasting transformation happens through the renewing power of the Holy Spirit.
Our sessions are:
- Rooted in Scripture — God’s Word offers the wisdom, hope, and clarity we need.
- Led by the Spirit — We prayerfully seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance in every step.
- Centered on Christ — He is our Counselor, Redeemer, and ultimate source of healing.

Key Biblical Principles That Ground Our Counseling Practice
- The Sufficiency of Scripture: “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness…” (2 Timothy 3:16-17). This emphasizes that God’s Word offers everything we need for life and godliness.
- The Condition of the Human Heart: “The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately sick; who can understand it?” (Jeremiah 17:9). Real change begins in the heart.
- The Role of the Holy Spirit: “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit… will teach you all things…” (John 14:26). Transformation comes through the Spirit’s renewing work.
- The Goal of Sanctification: “For this is the will of God, your sanctification…” (1 Thessalonians 4:3). It’s not just relief, but growth in holiness and obedience.
- One-Another Ministry: “Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” (Galatians 6:2). Biblical counseling is personal discipleship in action.
