COACHING + COUNSELING
At Freedom Movement, we’re firm believers in the transformational healing that can stem from honest community and wise counsel. Why? We’ve seen them change lives time and time again. For some, engaging with our Freedom Movement family through courses, events, and even online provides sufficient support for their personal journey to freedom. We also realize that some need one-on-one coaching and encouragement as they walk through dark places on the road to healing. Maybe you feel like that’s you, and we want you to know that we have the understanding and support you need waiting for you here at Freedom Movement.
You are not alone. Let Freedom Movement be your next step.
No matter the battle you’re facing, God sees your wounds and loves you still. His desire is for you to find the healing that leads to hope. That’s why we’ve created a model focused on finding and healing the root of the issue, instead of focusing on surface-level behavior modifications. We understand the despair of endlessly, and sometimes aimlessly, wandering toward freedom from addiction, destructive patterns, shame and guilt, unexplained loss, anxiety and depression, and many other forms of emotional and mental bondage. Sometimes, we just need to know which step to take next. We believe destructive patterns can be halted, and even the most painful wounds can be healed. We also know that you have a purpose, and that you can experience joy and peace as you begin to live into that purpose.
We have a team of professionals who provide affordable life coaching and counseling in addition to spiritual direction – all founded on the truth of God’s word and relentless love – to help you figure out the next step that will ultimately set you free.

LIFE COACHING + COUNSELING
Our desire is to help you with more than a “quick fix” or behavior change. When stepping into counsel with Freedom Movement, you will begin the process of facing what lies beneath. Our coaches and counselors are here to help you identify and heal the root issue in order to more clearly see the purpose God has for you.
SPIRITUAL DIRECTION
Christian Spiritual Direction is the practice of listening for the voice and movement of God in someone's life. The basis for spiritual direction is that God — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — is continually inviting us into intimate relationship and a deeper and more personal awareness of the Presence. While God is the true “Director,” spiritual direction helps us to notice His divine work in all of life. Richard Foster defines spiritual direction as “an interpersonal relationship in which we learn how to grow, live, and love in the spiritual life.”
Spiritual direction sessions are one hour per month between director and directee. During this time the director and directee discern through conversation where and how God is moving. Both parties have full confidence in the leadership of the Holy Spirit to bring these things to the surface. Spiritual direction is not counseling, mentoring or discipling, it is active listening for the activity of God in any area the directee would like to discuss.
Sessions are one hour long and are scheduled individually. Spiritual direction is relationally centered and meant to be experienced over a quantity of quality time. An ongoing, monthly rhythm is recommended.
