About Francisco
Our Approach
Abundant Mercy Christian Counseling’s approach to counseling is rooted in 2 Timothy 2:24, which calls the Lord’s servants to instruct others with patience, kindness, and compassion, in the hope that God will grant repentance leading to the knowledge of the truth, a return to senses and an escape from the enemy. Our desire is for those experiencing doubt, hurt, guilt, grief, shame, and estrangement from God to be found, healed, and restored by the pursuing, merciful and gracious God.
