Anchored Ministries is a Certified Faith Based
Chemical Dependency Counseling and Education Service. Our approach to
therapy includes the insights of spirituality integrated with the
principles of modern behavior to help individuals, couples, families and
groups achieve wholeness and health.
While each individual's story may differ, all share
in the same frustration, pain and shame experienced in the midst of an
addiction. There is a solution that gives hope, strength and courage to
move beyond the addiction towards the victorious life God intended for
each of us.
Our therapy is guided by the conviction
that emotional illnesses are best healed by taking into consideration
both the wisdom of spiritual teachings and the knowledge of human
psychology.
Some people suffer from a illnesses
such as depression, marital difficulties, work-related problems, or
issues with a family members due to their addiction. Whatever the case
may be these problems can be overwhelming, and cause anxiety,
dysfunction and pain that harm relationships.
We use a variety of biblically based
methods to address emotional problems which stand as barriers to moving
through life's crises and transitions. Based on psychosocial
assessments, theological principles and cultural understandings, we may
recommend one or more of the following ways of helping - individual
therapy, group therapy, couples counseling, marriage and family therapy,
spiritual guidance and short-term counseling. If medical treatment is
needed in addition to our services, we will refer to our clients to the
appropriate treatment.
Full Restoration requires a Divine
viewpoint as opposed to a human viewpoint regarding the source of
'negative consequence behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy places
accentuation on truth as it is found in the Word of God versus the lies
that stem from human belief systems. First a man believes, then he thinks,
feels and acts. Consequently, our beliefs determine our actions.
Knowledge of biblical doctrine allows our counselor to discern the
difference between man's solutions and God's answers regarding life
controlling problems.
Our goal is to walk the individual and their family members through the
process of becoming free from the bondage that addiction causes. We lead
them to freedom and the hope of a new beginning. We believe that the
true solution to all human needs is found in Jesus Christ.
