Helping People of Faith Overcome Life's Challenges and Live Out Their God-Given Purpose
My name is Charity Shelton and I am a Christian Counselor and Life Coach. I am passionate about helping people of faith learn how to connect, communicate, improve their people skills and learn how to manage their emotions and process their feelings productively, and find their God-given purpose and walk it out effectively. I am Holy Spirit led and want to help you experience the freedom found in Christ to the fullest.
God has given us all a specific purpose and things happen in life to silence and steal that purpose. Our soul might need healing and I believe this healing is possible! As a counselor, I know the effects that trauma and stress have on the mind, but as a believer, I know there is something stronger than the pain- the Love of God. As a faith-based coach, I combine my knowledge and training with my belief in the word of God to walk you through transformation from where you're stuck to living your full purpose in Christ.
At the heart of our purpose is our relationships. God created us for relationship, He designed us to be in relationship with Him and with others. This is often, however, where we experience the most pain. This is why I focus my help on life and relationship issues- I believe all of life's issues are tied to a relationship with God, ourselves and others- I specialize in helping with all 3. With education and training in both guidance counseling and marriage and family counseling, I understand the complexities that brokenness in these areas create. I'm passionate about seeing people free to live out their purpose with nothing holding them back. Book a free call with me to see how I can help,
Why Coaching?
While coaching and counseling are both centered on personal development, there's a reason I do not call myself a therapist. While I have a Masters degree that qualifies me to be a therapist, I decided to offer coaching instead of therapy for a number of reasons:
Coaching allows me to help people outside of my state, as a therapist- you can only help those in the state you are licensed in.
Coaching allows me to integrate my faith into how I coach and help people
Coaching also allows me to share my personal experiences with those I help, areas that I have walked through and experienced victory in
Coaching also allows me to have connection with those I help outside of just the coaching sessions.
Coaching includes a teaching element where I give you the tools to be able to build the life you desire without having to depend on me forever
My methodology integrates my experience, my knowledge of the Word of God, and my education in the mental health field in order to provide those with everything the Lord has equipped me with to help them.
What's it like to be coached by me?
Weekly virtual sessions through Zoom (50 min long) totally focused on you and where you're going
Complete privacy and confidentiality, you don't even have to leave your home. Everything you share stays with me and God and with his help, we will sort it all out, make a plan, and take steps towards healing and freedom
Weekly text messaging support in between sessions so you don't have to wait a whole week to get what you need (Not like therapy)
A person in your corner for life! I pour my heart and soul into the people I help and after you start working with me, you join that circle where I cover you in prayer and continue to cheer you on!
Flexible payment plans and package structure is available. My heart is that nothing stops you from what God has for you- including finances.
