The struggle is real, and suffering is common. We are living in difficult times with intense challenges and deep personal struggles.
Whether you are suffering with depression, struggling with anxieties, or experiencing personal challenges that seem overwhelming, God has provided answers with incredible hope and precise, practical help in His word.

What you can expect from us
Our biblical counseling services are provided free of charge since we consider it a real privilege to help others!
Our staff of biblical counselors have undergone rigorous training and are ready to help you find God’s answers for yourself.
Our biblical counselors consider your confidentiality a critical part of the process while making the safety and well-being of yourself and others a priority. Absolute confidentiality is unbiblical in cases of abuse, threats of violence, and criminal activity. We also reserve the right to consult with another trained biblical counselor/pastor when necessary in order to provide the best individualized help.

Then, email the completed forms to counseling@immanuelknox.org. You will be contacted by one of our trained biblical counselors to schedule a time to meet with you.

Being honest with your biblical counselor will be essential to finding God’s answers in the shortest amount of time.
You will also be asked to attend a bible-believing church during the duration of biblical counseling.
