Philosophy of Counseling
As a counselor, Ann’s desire is to impart to the clients that she serves the knowledge, skills and wisdom that she has acquired to enhance their emotional, social, and spiritual growth. She views each client as unique. She embraces the opportunity to walk alongside others to assist them on their journey to wholeness. A favorite scripture that guides her is found in Ephesians 4:15:
Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.
