What is Therapeutic Discipleship?

Great question!

Therapeutic discipleship is trauma-informed discipleship that takes the whole of who you are into account, helps you understand yourself (why you do what you do, why you think what you think) then brings you before Jesus and the Throne of Grace where together we explore the Word and establish Truth in your heart and mind. It is where the understanding of trauma, human nature and the brain meets Biblical Truths and Jesus.

As humans we are complex - many things made us who we are and have shaped how we think and behave. We are body, soul and spirit and all of it is intricately connected. Everything you have lived up until this point will impact how you see yourself, God, other people, situations you face and the world around you.

The Bible tells us that we can be transformed by the renewing of our minds and it tells us that Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. This Good News means we can be transformed and we have a Teacher who is Truth, is the Way and is Life. As we face who we are, face what has shaped us, learn how to apply Biblical Truth to our lives and renew our minds, we become those new creations that Paul talks about in 2 Corinthians.

Testimonials

  • "When I was at my lowest point, Charmian was the light I didn't think I’d find. She met me in my darkest hour and sat in the trenches with me with zero judgement and a heart full of grace, refusing to give up on me even when I had given up on myself. Through her patient guidance, I didn’t just learn about faith, I stepped into a true, healthy relationship with Jesus, God, and the Holy Spirit. She gave me the practical and spiritual tools I needed to break chains, process trauma and finally live a life of freedom. I am forever grateful for her unwavering support and for the way she mirrored God’s love until I could see it for myself."

    — Kelly

  • "Charmian is someone who consistently points people away from herself and toward the Father. In her ministry, she creates a gentle space for God to speak and move and that is exactly where my transformation happened. You can’t be around her for very long without encountering Him, because she doesn’t just teach it; it’s her life. ."

  • "I first met Charmian a number of years ago and, since then, she has stuck with me through thick and thin, ministering to me through different seasons with remarkable wisdom, deep compassion, and a strong ability to discern in the Spirit. She often understands what is happening beneath the surface, even when things are not always clear to me. She has walked with me through some of the deepest areas of deliverance and healing in my life, standing with me in prayer and guiding me with truth, patience, and genuine care. I can honestly say that her ministry has been life-changing for me. I’m deeply grateful for her faithfulness and for the freedom and growth I’ve experienced through her guidance."

  • "Charmian came alongside me as I was healing from a traumatic childhood. She is incredibly patient and kind, she knows the word deeply but also knows so much about the effects of trauma. I’m so grateful for her time, wisdom and the tools she shared with me and the healing I’ve experienced thanks to her support."
