If your spirit has been whispering that is needs rest, renewal, or simply a place to listen again, this may be the pause you long for to restore your soul. This time and space will wave together Prayer, Body Awareness, Healing Presence, and Grace.
Gestalt Pastoral Care is rooted in the healing ministry of Jesus. Believing that God desires healing and wholeness for us, we companion those who desire wholeness of Body, Mind, and Spirit.
