About Good News Encounters

Good News Encounters is a Christ-centered counseling and coaching ministry dedicated to helping people experience breakthrough in the middle of their story.

We believe the gospel is not just information but a transformational encounter with Jesus that renews the mind, reshapes the heart, and restores hope.

Through counseling, coaching, and groups, we create safe spaces where people discover healing, clarity, and lasting change in Christ
