Counseling That Honors Your Faith

For many people, faith is not a small part of life — it is the foundation of it. If you are looking for a Christian counselor in Charlotte, NC who shares your values and understands the role your relationship with God plays in your healing, you are in the right place.

Robert McGuire, LCMHCS, is a male Christian counselor whose practice is rooted in the truth and wisdom of the Bible and faith in Jesus Christ. He holds a Master of Arts in Christian Counseling from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, and integrates that foundation with clinically proven therapeutic approaches — so you never have to choose between your faith and quality mental health care.

Christian counseling at Brave Beginnings is always offered, never imposed. Whether you want Scripture and prayer woven throughout your sessions or simply want a counselor who respects and understands your faith, the pace and depth of faith integration is always up to you.
