Abundant Life Christian Counseling Services

"My family has utilized the services of Abundant Life at various times over the last 20 years. I can honestly say the staff is both compassionate and knowledgeable. Each session begins with prayer. There will be homework assignments, so be prepared to dedicate some time to your healing. The price is quite reasonable, and they'll work with anyone having financial hardships. Overall, it's a great ministry focused on God!"

"Dr Nations and his staff have ministered to our family members over the past 10 years with exemplary care. I have recommended Abundant Life to family and friends many times. Dr. Nations spiritual discernment and counseling methods have truly blessed our family!"

"I hold a Doctorate and PhD in Christian Counseling, and have known Dr. Rick Nation, the Director and main Counselor at Abundant Life Christian Counseling and Training Center, for almost 2 years. I have experienced nothing but professionalism, compassion, empathy, wisdom, and excellence from Dr. Nation. He has over 33 years of experience, and has helped thousands of people, from children, to teens, to individuals, to couples. He gives 100% in each session, to ensure that he has done his part, for the person to experience positive change in their session. I've never seen such depth of knowledge, experience, wisdom, or genuine heart in a Counselor. He is the kind of Counselor that cries out to God for you, prays with you, and will even fast for you. He touched my heart with his genuine care and concern for others, and I know he will touch yours as well. The entire staff is excellent. The Administrative Assistant is friendly and kind. She has a gentleness and warmth, as she answers calls and greets you. You will be put to ease the minute you walk in. Counselor Maureen Fryer is a ray of sunshine and has a deep spiritual maturity, as she speaks hope and healing to you. She has many years of experience in ministry, and brings not just that to the table, but a heart of gold. Every policy is clearly explained, by all of the staff. There have never been any grey areas. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Abundant Life Christian Counseling and Training Center. This is by far THE BEST Christian Counseling office, not just in our area, but anywhere, that I have ever seen. People come from over an hour away to meet in person, and are also receiving virtual Counseling from all over the country. I have referred numerous individuals here, including 2 close family members. This is the ONLY place that I refer people to, if I cannot help them. Everyone that I have referred, including some of my own Counselees, that needed greater help than I could provide, have been pleased and have wonderful feedback. No one has ever had any criticism or complaints. Dr. Nation is exceptional, in that he is the only Counselor I know of with the experience to deal with severe, heinous forms of abuse, like childhood sexual abuse and ritualized, cult, and satanic abuse. I do not hesitate to recommend Abundant Life Christian Counseling and Training Center to anyone looking for hope and help, healing and restoration, to someone looking to become a Christian Counselor, or to further their training and education. This is the only place that I recommend for a person to train to become a Christian Counselor. Do not look anywhere else. When I found Abundant Life Christian Counseling and Training Center, I knew I was in the right place for training. After speaking with Dr. Nation, I knew my prayers had been answered. You will find that out too."

"Abundant Life Christian Counseling Service has been such a blessing to my husband and I. After going through some difficult family experiences, Dr. Nation helped us work through them using Biblical principles and specific Bible verses that brought understanding and resolution to what otherwise could have been devastating to our family unity! Our son is a combat veteran and we needed to understand how to help him transition back to civilian life while processing the trauma of war! Thanking God for Dr. Nation and all of the wonderful staff that have supported and loved us through the pain! Peace has returned to our family and we hope and pray the knowledge, understanding and growth obtained during this difficult time will equip us to turn around and help others that go through similar trials!"

"Abundant Life ministries has been an amazing blessing in my families life. Dr Nation is genuinely a God centered man who counsels, guides, and directs with The Word of God. He embodies the Life of Christ and lives to serve. His service has shown us how to have life abundant."
