Rogers Christian Counseling: A Different Approach to Counseling

LCSW-A Clinician

Eventually, my path led me into the counseling profession, where I felt called to help others navigate their own struggles. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master’s Degree in Advanced Clinical Social Work, and I practice as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate (LCSW-A) in Jacksonville, NC. I have also worked as a victim’s advocate counselor, assisting individuals who have experienced significant trauma. My approach combines professional training with real-world life experience. While my perspective is shaped by Christian principles, I respect each client’s beliefs, ensuring that counseling remains a place of respect, honesty, and growth. As one of the Christian counselors in Jacksonville, NC, I am committed to providing support to individuals and couples, including those seeking a marriage counselor in Jacksonville, NC.

Career

 Before becoming a counselor, I spent many years working in demanding environments that shaped my understanding of discipline, resilience, and human behavior.

I served as an Infantry Paratrooper in the 82nd Airborne Division, where I learned the importance of courage, responsibility, and perseverance under pressure.

After my military service, I worked in several intense fields including fugitive recovery and human trafficking interdiction, along with various blue-collar trades such as welding and other hands-on work. Those years gave me a deep appreciation for hard work and a front-row view of the challenges people often face in life.

Family

My wife and I have been married for 20 years, which means we’ve had plenty of opportunities to learn patience, humility, and forgiveness along the way. Our marriage hasn’t been perfect, but working through those challenges has shaped how I understand relationships today. If we ever need extra guidance, I know that there are skilled marriage counselors in Jacksonville, NC, who can help couples navigate difficult times.  


We have four children, and being their dad has taught me more about life than any degree ever could. Over the years I’ve worked to devote my time to them and learn how to love and lead them in ways that I wasn’t always shown growing up. I sometimes wonder if seeking advice from Christian counselors in Jacksonville, NC, could have provided insights that would have enriched our family life even further.  


When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me spending time with my family, especially out on the water. It’s one of the few places where the pace slows down and everyone can simply enjoy being together.  


And with four kids, there is never a shortage of laughter, noise, or someone asking where the snacks went.
