Welcome to Grateful Guidance & Counseling

Hope. Healing. Help—Right Where You Are.

Established in 2023, Grateful Guidance & Counseling began with a clear mission: to provide compassionate, professional support for individuals navigating the challenges of substance use. Over time, we recognized a deeper, growing need within our community—a need for spiritual support, emotional clarity, and whole-person healing.

That's why we expanded our services to include Christian faith-based guidance and life coaching. Life rarely presents just one obstacle at a time. More often, we’re faced with a combination of stressors—addiction, relationships, faith struggles, emotional pain, uncertainty about our purpose—and they can pile up, leaving us overwhelmed and stuck. At Grateful Guidance, we understand this. That’s why we take a multi-faceted approach to counseling and coaching, helping you address not just the visible challenges, but the deeper ones, too.

Whether you’re seeking:

  • Structured substance abuse counseling or education,

  • A trusted voice to help you walk in faith, or

  • Simply someone to listen and guide—
    we’re here to meet you where you are, without judgment, and with real support.

To fit your life and comfort, we offer flexible services through video sessions, phone calls, or text-based check-ins—whichever works best for you.

If you’ve been searching for hope, for healing, or for clarity—you’ve found a place that gets it.
Let us walk alongside you.
Let Grateful Guidance be there for you.

This outdated perspective creates barriers to treatment and prevents millions from seeking help. It's time to embrace the reality that addiction is a brain disease requiring medical intervention, not moral condemnation. The Science Is Clear Addiction fundamentally alters brain chemistry and structure. When someone uses substances repeatedly, their brain's reward system becomes hijacked. The neurotransmitter dopamine becomes dysregulated, and the brain adapts by requiring more substances to achieve the same effect while reducing its ability to feel pleasure from natural rewards. Modern neuroscience reveals that addiction affects three critical brain regions: the basal ganglia (reward and motivation), the extended amygdala (stress and emotions), and the prefrontal cortex (decision-making). These aren't te...

Breaking the Shame Cycle

 Shame doesn’t always scream. Sometimes it just whispers: “You’ll never change.” “You’re the problem.” “If they knew the real you, they’d leave.” Shame keeps people trapped— not the mistake, but the message that they are the mistake. And when it’s tied to addiction, failure, or family history, it runs deep. At Grateful Guidance , we’ve seen what happens when people begin to release shame. They get honest. They get free. They get their lives back. 🦋 You Are Not Broken. You Are Becoming. If shame is weighing you down, we want you to know: it doesn’t have to be this way. Let’s start untangling the lies— together , in a space of grace and growth. We’re here by text, phone, or video whenever you're ready. 💬 Inspiration for Today "Shame dies when stories are told in safe places." — Ann Voskamp 🦋 Grateful Guidance is that place.
