People contact our ministry with crisis situations that need immediate attention. Crisis care is the thrust of our Personal Advocacy Sessions. However, many of these crisis situations could have been avoided if the person had known some foundational principles that would help to strengthen their relationship with the Father, Jesus and Holy Spirit. In response to this need, we have developed AfterCare.
AfterCare personal counseling and classes offer support after a Personal Advocacy session to help with processing the experience. Have you considered that in light of what you have learned through your Personal Advocacy sessions, you may need to make some changes in your life? Perhaps you have discovered that there are some gaps in your understanding of spiritual matters. Through counseling, teaching and prayer, areas that need changing or strengthening are identified and worked on with the guidance from the Holy Spirit in AfterCare classes or through AfterCare personal counseling appointment sessions.
SMALL GROUP CLASSES on specific issues:
(Fear/Anxiety, Guilt/Shame, Depression, Forgiveness, Spiritual Abuse, Love, etc.)
See the column to the right (above, if on mobile) for details on Class Offerings, dates and cost and buttons through which to enroll.
Be aware that Classes times relate to EASTERN Time in the USA, you'll need to convert that to your time zone as you consider enrolling.

Find our Confirmation email from scheduling@acuityscheduling.com which contains the Zoom link with which to join the class at the appropriate time. You may need to check spam or junk folders too.
You do not have to have a Personal Advocacy session first in order to enroll in a class or schedule a personal counseling session; however we do find that our students and clients benefit from them whether they schedule it before, during or after the AfterCare classes or counseling.

Why do you require "homework" after a Counseling or a Group Counseling session has been scheduled?
Homework is required to prepare your heart to receive what the Holy Spirit has planned for you. He prepares you for the session so that you will trust the process and gain results.
What does the "homework" for Individual Counseling or Group Counseling Session consist of?
Read, pray & journal about Psalm 139 -The Passion Translation. Allow the Holy Spirit to speak to you about this passage of scripture. He will illuminate at different times a verse that he wants you to meditate upon. Do this each day before your session.
Should I book a 1-Hour or a 1.5 Hour Counseling appointment with you?
That depends upon your schedule and the potential complexity of your situation.
Beginning with a single 1-Hour appointment is highly recommended.
A second and subsequent 1-Hour follow-up session is recommended and the frequency can be discussed with Jen.
If your circumstances are extremely severe, a 1.5-hour appointment can be scheduled.
1-Hour appointments are often available sooner than 1.5-hour appointments due to ministry schedules.
Please note - if you schedule a 1-Hour appointment, it can not be turned into a 1.5-hour appointment later or vice versa. This is because appointments are being booked all around your appointment time, and we can not make the change in the system due to that.
What about cancellations or No-show clients? What is your protocol?
NO SHOW POLICY: We do not reschedule an appointment for a No-Show client for any reason and 100% of the fee for that appointment is forfeited. We do not refund class fees when a student does not show up for a class to which they are enrolled.
You are booking a professional Pastoral Service with us, please honor that alignment.
You are employing our Teams and their valuable time whether you show up or not.
Please make sure you know how to connect through Zoom, and at what time your appointment is scheduled, so that your scheduled appointment takes place.
The scheduling system we use will remind you via email one day in advance of your appointment and will reflect the time zone you choose as your time zone.
We are not responsible if you choose the wrong time zone.

A key element in successful resolution of issues in these sessions is the willingness of the participant to repent for themselves and their generations and be honest with those ministering to you. The more willing we are to repent, the more things can change in your situation.
