Treating the Whole Person

LCEA is committed to treating the whole person by addressing psychological, physical and spiritual needs.  Our long-standing affiliation with Lincoln Family Medical Group reflects a recognition that physical needs and emotional well-being are frequently related.  Our adjacent offices and working relationship assures access to a wide range of medical services such as physician consultation, referrals and hospitalization.  This approach is what we see the essence of Christian counseling to be. We also work with many other physicians and health professionals in the community to ensure collaborative care for our clients.

We believe that spiritual issues play an important part in our daily lives and are a significant component of the healing process.  Each of our psychologists and therapists is a Christian who is committed to a personal faith in Christ.   For those clients who share this Christian commitment, our goals of therapy will be consistent with increased spiritual growth and a more Christ-centered life.  For those clients who do not profess a Christian commitment, it is not our purpose or intent to impose our spiritual mindset and values.  We will only incorporate spiritual dimensions in our counseling to the extent that the client desires and consents.  We welcome any questions regarding this area.
