About Safe Harbor of Hope Counseling

Our hope is your healing. Our goal is your wholeness. Our strength and foundation is Christ.

A Place of Refuge

Some seasons in life, we find ourselves in a storm, trying to navigate more than we were ever meant to do alone.

Sometimes the storm presents as anxiety or depression. Sometimes it is trauma, grief, a difficult relationship, a major life transition, or a spiritual struggle. Sometimes we simply know that something needs to change, but we are not sure where to begin.

Safe Harbor of Hope Counseling was created to be a place of refuge and a lighthouse in the storm, so you know you are not alone.

Asking for help is a sign of your strength. It is your first step toward healing.

Our Story

Safe Harbor of Hope Counseling was founded with the belief that two things belong together: professional mental health care and the hope found in Jesus Christ.

As a nonprofit professional counseling and coaching practice with a Christian worldview, our heart is to provide a safe, compassionate environment for clients to process the challenges they are facing, develop healthy coping skills, and discover hope for the future.

We believe every person is made in the image of God, has immeasurable worth, and has a God-given purpose. We also recognize that faith does not make us immune to pain, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, or the difficult circumstances and storms of life.

“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you...”
— Isaiah 43:2

Sometimes faith needs a safe place to ask questions.

Sometimes healing requires professional support.

Sometimes, to find wholeness, we need someone to walk beside us while we find our way forward.

That is what Safe Harbor is here to do.

There is hope

Why the name “Safe Harbor”?

A harbor is a place of refuge. It is where a vessel can come out of the storm to find protection, make repairs, regain its bearings, and prepare to continue the journey. Counseling and coaching can provide a safe harbor.

You may start counseling or coaching feeling overwhelmed, wounded, stuck, or uncertain about the future. Our goal is not to tell you how quickly you should heal or where your journey should lead. Instead, we provide a safe harbor where you can slow down, be heard, understand what you are experiencing, work through unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, and begin the work of healing and growth.

Because our name is Safe Harbor of Hope, we believe your story does not end with the storm. There is hope for what comes next.

Care for your whole story

Professional Counseling. Christian Foundation. Compassionate Care.

Safe Harbor brings together professional counseling and coaching with a Christian worldview.

For clients who desire it, Christian faith can be thoughtfully integrated into the counseling process alongside appropriate clinical approaches. You do not have to choose between professional mental health care and your faith. We believe they can work together while respecting both your clinical needs and your personal beliefs.

At the same time, we understand that every person’s story is different. Counseling is a collaborative process, and we meet each person where they are. You do not need to be a Christian for us to serve you.
