Life can be complicated. Life can be painful. Life can be confusing. At times, life can be overwhelming. In times like these, where do you go? Where do you turn? There is only one source of truth and that is Scripture. Shadow Ridge provides two approaches to support growth, healing, and meaningful change: counseling and coaching. Counseling and coaching are not the same thing and each of them is designed to help in a specific way.

Counseling is designed to help people who are facing challenges and struggles that are interfering with their daily life, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or patterns of behavior that are causing problems. In its basic form, counseling helps people find healing and a sense of stability when emotional or mental health concerns are hindering life. Counseling can also assist in mentally and emotionally preparing for major life events such as: marriage, pregnancy and the birth of a child, graduation, empty-nesting, and retirement.

The counseling services of Shadow Ridge are founded in and based upon the Word of God. By taking the principles that God has placed there for us, coupling them with a realistic understanding of who we are and who God has created us to be, we can face life’s challenges. The counseling services of Shadow Ridge couple Biblical truths with proven clinical strategies that are applicable for:

• Individuals

• Pre-marital preparation

• Relationships

• Marriage

• Family

• Children

• Adolescents

• Addiction

• Grief

• Emotional struggles

• Anxiety and depression

Coaching is a goal-focused partnership that helps people move forward in a planned and intentional manner. It can be especially helpful in moments when someone feels stuck, uncertain, or in need of direction and support. Coaching focuses on the present and the future: clarifying and setting goals, making decisions, and determining meaningful next steps. Coaching helps people turn ideas into action and make intentional progress. The following coaching services are available from Shadow Ridge:

• Human Flourishing

• Brain Health

• Crisis Intervention

• De-Escalation/Crisis De-Escalation

• Interpersonal Skills

• Communication

• Leadership (see Consulting page)
