Chief Operating Officer

Our Story:
Redeemer Counseling (RCS) is a professional Christian counseling and training center based in midtown Manhattan. We connect the Gospel and counseling best practices for individuals and churches. Our staff of 40 professionally trained counselors and trainers journey with people to deeper healing and transformation.Our philosophy is holistic. We believe that people are made in God’s image, and to restore health to a person, we need to consider the dimensions of both body and soul. Our goal in counseling is to establish a context of growth by guiding individuals and the community towards emotional and spiritual wholeness. In order for counseling to be meaningful and effective, it must not only help alleviate presenting symptoms and suffering, but it must also expose the complex and largely hidden desires and motives of the heart.

Core Values
Gospel – We believe there cannot be lasting transformation apart from Jesus Christ. Change is experienced in a covenant relationship with him.

Community – We acknowledge that change does not happen in isolation. Our counseling therefore encourages healing and growth within the context of community.

Changed lives – We believe counseling is an examination of the heart and transformation is the work of the Holy Spirit.

City – We seek to address the demands and complexities of urban life with the wisdom of God.

Movement – We serve as a model and assist in developing gospel-centered counseling ministries.RCS is governed by Redeemer Churches and Ministries.
