About

Blair Hollis M.A. GCDF BCCC is the founder and President of Crossroads Consulting, Inc. a counseling and consulting professional practice. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy and Religion from DePauw University; a Certificate in Executive Leadership from Cornell University; a Masters of Arts degree in Counseling with honors from Liberty University; a Certificate in Interpersonal Neurobiology and Depression, as well as a Certificate in Addictions and Recovery.

Counseling
He is a Board Certified Christian Counselor whose graduate education and training in counseling prepared him for the the use of Narrative Therapy within counselor settings under Dr. Mark Savickas; Christian counselor training in Addictions and Recovery, and training in Couples Therapy with Dr. Everett Worthington's Hope-Focused Counseling Model.

Career and Professional Development
He holds the title of Career Development Facilitator (CDF), a professional designation conferred by the National Career Development Association (NCDA) and Global Career Development Facilitator (GCDF) a designation conferred by CCE, requiring 1,800 hours of training in professional development facilitation and counselor training under Dr. Rebecca Dedmond.

His education and training in Cornell University’s Certificate Program in Executive Leadership expanded his knowledge in using a strengths based approach to conflict management and enhancing workforce engagement. This equipped him with the ability to work with Dr. Dori Stiles to perfect the use of psychological assessments, beyond individual professional development, to the enterprise level in order to conduct corporate leadership workshops, which awakens individuals to their blind spots and human potential.

Practice Specialization
What he learned in his 14 years of practice is that our personal and professional lives are not independent separate components, but are intricately intertwined and unique. Importantly, his is the only practice that has the knowledge and training to reconcile both of these by virtue of the fact that our issues in life crossover into both domains. Consequently, each dilemma may be addressed and integrated within a strengths-based approach to guide individuals to finding meaning in what they do, to work through a process of taking on a new perspective of how to leverage their gifts, and to perfect a pathway in life that has a sense of purpose.

His passion is to guide individuals of all ages who are confronting life stressors to clarity of purpose. This requires critical self-inquiry to crystallize new methods to enrich their lives. The ability to tap into their uniqueness may be expressed in both their personal and professional lives. The efficacy of this developmental approach offers clients greater hope and the capacity to envision new pathways enhancing a newfound purpose filled life.

He founded Crossroads Consulting, Inc. in order to meet the multifarious needs of others by adapting and creating a unique Hope-Focused Model developed from Savickas' (2005) innovative constructionist theory and the important work of Niles, Amundson & Neault's (2010) Hope-Centered approach.

And thus, Crossroads Consulting, Inc. was born.
