Religious and spiritual values serve as an important piece in the human experience. At Renewed Foundation we hold the belief that the most effective therapy outcomes incorporate mind, body, and spirit. This belief is supported by our experience with clients and best practices recommended by the American Counseling Association and the American Psychological Association.  These major professional organizations acknowledge that spiritual and religious issues are therapeutically relevant, ethically correct, and hold potential significance in the lives of clients. Religious and spiritual values can serve as a major piece in the human experience; therefore, spiritual exploration can be viewed as a resource in counseling.

We are equally supportive of all spiritual beliefs, people with no spiritual belief, and respectful of clients that do not wish to incorporate spirituality into their counseling.  Throughout our combined experience we have worked with hundreds of clients from different spiritual faiths and those with no proclaimed spiritual faith.Our upmost desire is to create an environment where our clients feel accepted, validated, and safe.

We do openly acknowledge our own Christian faith and are uniquely trained to counsel those desiring a Christian counseling based approach.  However, we describe ourselves as counselors with Christian faith and not Christian counselors.  We make this distinction because as professional counselors we uphold an ethical responsibility to meet our clients wherever they fall on the spiritual continuum.  We acknowledge that we are not pastors, priests, or evangelists and never attempt to persuade our clients to adopt a particular spiritual worldview.
