Overcoming Problems

By Bill & Kristi Gaultiere © 1999-2012

As psychotherapists since 1987 we’ve offered “Christian Soul Care” to help ministry leaders and other people overcome all kinds of psychological, relational, and spiritual challenges. Over the years we’ve learned a great deal about How Psychotherapy Works.

Our experience in our own lives and in our work with other people is that soul transformation is possible! I (Bill) illustrate how with an example from my own life in our article, Can You and I Really Change?

If you or someone you know is needing encouragement read these soul care articles…

It’s people like you who support the ministry of Soul Shepherding, which includes articles like this. Perhaps you would like to invest in the renewal of pastors, missionaries, leaders, and care-givers? Even small donations given with prayer in Jesus’ name add up to make Soul Shepherding’s ministry possible.
