The 9 Concepts Counseling Difference

The journey to improved spiritual, mental, and physical well-being begins with an objective evaluation of current levels of operation in each of the nine fruits of the Spirit (Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self-control). The success of this evaluation (and ultimately this entire process) hinges on our willingness to be honest with ourselves (and others) about our current state of spiritual health. Objectively evaluating current levels of operation in each of the nine fruits of the Spirit is an extremely effective way to gauge spiritual health, which (I believe) is integral to mental and physical health (and vice versa), thereby being an essential focal point of my practice. Once we’ve identified areas of concern regarding a lack of operation in either a specific fruit of the Spirit or multiple fruits of the Spirit, we can then begin the process of addressing the motivating factors for whichever area of concern you may have, to encourage spiritual growth (and health).
