When my life felt like it was falling apart in 2023 a wise pastor’s wife from my church insisted that I needed biblical counseling. I didn’t know what that was and thought that it just meant a counselor who was a Christian. But she was adamant about “biblical counseling”. It took awhile to find an available biblical counselor but when I was referred to Teresa and met her the first time I began to see how much I needed this and how different biblical counseling was from typical “therapy”.
I was in shock and devastated at the discovery of years of secret betrayals in my marriage and Teresa immediately wept with me but quickly got to action with what I needed. She focused me on the Word of God and my own healing and the things that I was responsible for rather than us focusing on the sins of my husband.
Each week I memorized God’s Word to encourage me. It helped my mental health to focus on His truth and my own obedience to Christ since I had no control at all over my husband and his actions or decisions.
I could control my mind by taking my thoughts captive to the obedience of Christ.
