Evidence-based counselling from a Christian perspective

Colin Elmhurst, RP, M.Div.

Registered Psychotherapist, Certified Professional Counsellor

Hello! My name is Colin. I’ve been in this line of work for 7 years now and have had a wide variety of trainings, and experiences with a broad range of people. This has helped me to help you in supporting the change you want to see in your life. I’ve discovered I’m able to help Christian couples in relationship difficulties through Christian and evidence-based perspectives. I’ve also been able to help Christians and others struggling with chronic and persistent problems of mind and mood. Together, we can reach into the rich treasures of the Christian faith while benefitting from modern evidence in the behavioural sciences. Our talks will center around faith and life, behaviour and change, and how you can live the life God calls you to

Is this service right for me? Yes! If you:

  • are stuck with habits you can’t break
  • lack meaningful direction in life
  • need a fresh perspective on complicated problems
  • struggle in areas that are really important to you
  • are troubled by unwelcome thoughts and feelings
  • can’t seem to get ahead in sleep, habit, and health
  • have received a mental health diagnosis
  • can’t break an addiction of substance or habit
  • contend with chronic illness and pain
  • struggle to develop a connected marriage

…and want to see how the Christian faith connects to these things while informed by the knowledge of psychological and behavioural science. I’m happy to help. Let’s talk about our fit together by a brief telephonic consultation without charge at a time that works for you.
