The courses we took at Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando meet the clinical standards for state licensure in Colorado and Florida. Our training combined the best practices in secular theory alongside a Christian worldview. This means that we approach counseling with the belief that all people have worth and dignity. We also believe that the world contains pain and suffering with immense opportunity for healing and redemption.
We work with clients from all faith backgrounds and you do not have to hold a belief in Christianity to work with us. We only incorporate faith into counseling conversations for clients who would like that to be a part of their therapy.

All of the counselors at our practice are Licensed Professional Counselors, meaning that they have obtained their Masters in Counseling, completed at least two years of professional experience post-graduation under the supervision of a seasoned therapist, passed the National Counselor Examination (NCE), and maintained a regulated amount of continuing education bi-annually with their licensing states.
Licensed Professional Counselors are under the authority of the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) and must maintain in ethical good standing with the state in order to continue practicing.
Life Coaches offer services without regulation and are not required to receive training, pass clinical examinations, or maintain continuing education requirements. Life Coaches often offer services without a governing authority regulating the services that they provide. While some Life Coaches pursue a certificate program that can take 6-12 months to complete, many do not pursue formal training.
