Perhaps, like many, there is a disconnect between your faith and your life. Your desires, thinking, reactions, and/or behavior doesn’t seem to match what you say you believe. Perhaps your marriage is more dominated by anger and conflict rather than intimacy and friendship. You feel guilty, disillusioned, discouraged and rather tired of it all. “Where is the full life Jesus talks about?” you wonder. “Where’s the freedom, and the joy?”
New Beginnings Christian Counselling is about finding hope. Hope for change, for freedom, and for joy.

I have yet to meet anyone who has matched Dave's ability to speak wisdom into difficult situations. He demonstrates excellent listening skills and has an awareness of people's unique communicative abilities and needs. I see in Dave the most significant, and perhaps most difficult to acquire skill: a warm and genuine rapport with people. I would wholeheartedly and without hesitation recommend Dave.

“Dave has been my good friend and colleague for many years now and has always had a listening ear and grace-focused understanding in our conversations. He brings a balance of rationality and sensitivity that I find rare in leaders today – not afraid to speak the truth but fully aware of how it must always be spoken in a loving, gracious, and encouraging way.
I will recommend that my students at the university take advantage of Dave’s online counselling skills, because he works through personal issues in an approach that is grace oriented, Christ-centered, and biblically focused.”

“Dave is a warm, engaging man with a ready laugh and a compassionate heart. Above all, he understands how to apply the good news of God’s redemption to hearts still ravaged and broken. He has been of great help to many in our congregation, and we recommend him highly.”
