  • Advanced Track: Methodology

    This track will equip counselors to grow in their counseling methodology. We have designed an Advanced Track for Counseling Methodology because we believe that God cares how we go about caring for others. The Scriptures not only teach us that we should care for others – they also instruct us in methodology for that care.

    If you desire to grow as a counselor and practically develop the skill of counseling, this track is for you. It builds off of the Advanced Track: Theology well in that it develops theological foundations and equips you with 30 hours training including the following topics:

    Case Studies

    Music: Enemy Or Avenue

    How To Graduate

    Helping the Family Through PTSD

    Addressing Controlling Husbands

    How To Stay On Track

    And More!
