Counseling

Renewed.

@

In this story, the clinician is...

the certified arborist, tending with wisdom and care. Just as an arborist studies every part of a tree to understand its health, our counselors look beyond what is seen to walk with clients through the full process of renewal, from hidden roots to lasting fruit. Yet even the most skilled arborist depends on the Master Gardener, who is God Himself, the one who ultimately brings life, growth, and transformation.

Seeking counseling is a step toward growth, healing, and renewed strength. It is a choice to invest in your well being and to invite support on the journey of becoming whole. At Renewed, we believe every person is like a tree, created with the potential to flourish when nurtured in the right environment.

The Renewed Tree Model™ (RTM™) is our biblical and clinical framework for guiding clients through this journey. True transformation does not happen by trimming leaves or managing symptoms alone. It begins at the roots, where wounds and false beliefs are uncovered, and continues through the trunk, branches, and leaves, until healing blossoms in flowers and matures into healthy fruit.

The Environment for Healing.

For a tree to thrive, the soil must be good. At Renewed, we call this Good Soil. It reflects the condition of the heart, where truth can take root and lies are brought into the light. In Good Soil, clients are understood, supported, and free to grow.

This is a safe, compassionate, and Spirit-led environment where awareness develops, knowledge deepens, and the capacity for change is strengthened. Our clinicians are trained to cultivate this soil with both clinical excellence and the compassion of Christ, ensuring that every counseling journey is firmly rooted and prepared to bear fruit that endures.

We welcome all clients, whether they identify as Christian or not. Each person’s autonomy is honored, and clients are invited to walk at the pace and depth that feels right for them. Our role is to come alongside as part of a collaborative process, offering both clinical expertise and compassionate presence on the journey toward healing.

What Healing Means

Healing is more than easing pain or lessening symptoms. It is the restoration of wholeness that renews hope, restores identity, and forms purpose. True healing does not mean life will be free of challenges, but that challenges no longer define or control you.

C. S. Lewis wrote, “God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains. It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.” Pain often uncovers what we have tried to ignore, yet healing transforms pain into growth, wisdom, and testimony.

Healing does not erase the past, it redeems it. What once felt like broken ground can become fertile soil, and what once felt like weakness can become strength. It is both a clinical process and a sacred journey, revealed in the small steps of daily progress and in the deeper transformation that reshapes the heart, restores resilience, and redirects the course of a life.

The Six Stages of Healing in RTM™

Healing is a journey, and every journey needs direction. The Renewed Tree Model™ (RTM™) gives clients a clear path forward, guiding them step by step from what is hidden beneath the surface to the visible fruit of a renewed life. Each stage reflects both clinical growth and spiritual renewal, offering clarity without rushing the process.

Roots: Healing the Wounds Beneath
Every tree draws life from its roots. When roots are damaged, the whole tree suffers. Healing begins by gently uncovering what lies beneath, such as old wounds, painful memories, and distorted beliefs, so that restoration can take place where it matters most.

Trunk: Strengthening Inner Stability
A strong trunk gives stability in the storms. This stage focuses on building resilience, learning healthier ways to cope, and finding steadiness for the journey ahead.

Branches: Abiding and Alignment
Branches reach outward and upward. Here, clients begin to examine their relationships, learning how to prune unhealthy patterns and nurture connections that reflect truth and love.

Leaves: Emotional Health and Expression.
Leaves reveal the health of the tree. At this stage, clients develop greater awareness of their emotions and learn how to express them honestly and safely, thereby bringing more freedom to their daily lives.

Flowers: Presence, Beauty, and Readiness
Healing becomes visible. Clients begin to step forward with renewed hope, creativity, and openness, ready for new opportunities and deeper connections.

Fruit: Purpose, Overflow, and Impact
The final stage is marked by lasting transformation. Clients live with joy, resilience, and purpose, bearing fruit that blesses families, communities, and the Kingdom of God.

Healing is rarely a straight line, but these stages provide direction, clarity, and a sense of hope. Each step is enriched by the six integrative domains of care that shape every counseling journey: spiritual formation, psychological education, neuroscience-informed care, nutritional psychology, lifestyle and wellness practices, and relational health.
