Counseling & Professional Development

​
As a Board-Certified Christian Counselor, we are the only professional counseling practice with both graduate education and training specializing in an integrative approach to both counseling and professional development.

​What we realized is that our personal and professional lives are not independent separate components, but are intricately intertwined and unique. Consequently, in our 16 years of practice, we have learned that when people are struggling with personal challenges or are stuck in their career pursuits, they require a professional with knowledge and experience in both counseling and career development. What this tells us is that there is an inner voice calling out for help to resolve their dilemma and to repurpose their lives.

Located in Nashville, Tennessee, Crossroads Consulting, Inc. (CCI) is focused on awakening human potential. What unfolds is a realignment process. We use counseling resources and when appropriate, psychological assessments to guide individuals to clarity of purpose in their personal and professional development. Our counseling challenges them to explore "what" is required to fulfill their goals and to develop an awareness as to "why" altering their course will help them find their authentic pathway in life. It actualizes "how" this affirmation becomes the catalyst to a change process. Our goal is to guide them into becoming their true self. 
 

One Hope-Focused Model: Two Pathways

Our focus is on instilling Hope as the resolve to restore lives, to evoke meaning, and purpose, which are each integral components to their capacity to thrive. We use the Hope-Focused Model© to address life's challenges in two distinctive pathways because stressors tend to influence both our personal and professional lives in impactful ways. Hope is then required to develop that pathway thinking necessary to sustain individuals on that trajectory in life that is purpose-driven (Niles, 2020; Snyder, 1991).

Professional Development Pathway

Counseling addresses personal, emotional, and relational issues that create havoc on well-being. We guide individuals to identify, address, and work through their anxiety and other issues that inhibit their finding joy. We believe that our Hope-Centered counseling model can subdue life stressors sufficiently to provide clarity of purpose.

Whether you are feeling like life has no meaning and that there is something missing or that your marriage is fragmenting, our graduate education and training in counseling and couple therapy will guide you to becoming whole again through a process of healing.

Counseling creates a safe space to unpack "what" is getting in the way of your life and a process to uncover "what" needs to be addressed. It allows for an understanding of just how unique you are sufficiently to develop the resiliency to navigate a pathway toward restoration.

Taking this leap of faith creates hope. It manifests an awareness of "how" to take your life back, to find meaning and joy once again in this world.

We are the only career counseling practice that uniquely integrates both subjective and objective assessments to reveal "what" their gifts are and "how" they may be developed so that they are shared to impact others. This requires a discovery process.

This begins with understanding "what" their gifts are, which empowers them to explore "how" their gifts may be tuned to support distinctive pathways. It leads to discerning "why" they are congruent with "who" they are, and "how" weaving these together, creates the inner confidence to flourish in work that matters to them.  ​
