GINGER OSBORN MA, LPC

An essential objective in the therapeutic relationship is having a willingness to cultivate growth with change. I am humbled to walk alongside you on your journey, both holistically and completely. To promote partnership, we can explore and discover together new objectives achieving your counseling goals as you learn to enrich and embrace the change process. Psalm 46:1 says: God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. When we draw upon Him for strength, we can cope with struggles in life more effectively.

MY GOAL:

My role as your counselor is to assist you through the cultivation and self-discovery process where awareness, personal responsibility and maturity can be achieved in a safe and compassionate relationship. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free, John 8:32 Let us not become weary of doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9

ON A PERSONAL NOTE:

God’s love for me has been transformative.  Daily walking with Christ, putting into action what I learn in the Bible, and following the guidance of the Holy Spirit equips me with what I need to have a successful marriage, friends, and family life. I was married in 2002 to my best friend and man of God and am a bonus mom to a wonderful son. I enjoy creating in my art room, journaling with my Bible, and praying, participating in book studies with my husband and friends, taking long walks and hiking. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy. Philippians 1:4
