Biblical Counseling for Anxiety, Fear, and Worry

Anxiety can feel consuming — affecting your thoughts, body, relationships, sleep, faith, and sense of peace. Restoring Hope Ministries offers biblical counseling that helps individuals face anxiety through the wisdom, promises, and presence of God.

Anxiety Is Not Too Big for God's Word

Scripture does not treat fear and anxiety lightly. God meets His people in their distress with truth, comfort, correction, and hope. Biblical counseling helps you understand what you are experiencing while learning to bring fear, worry, control, uncertainty, and suffering before the Lord.

Anxiety is often rooted in a real experience of an uncertain world. Biblical counseling does not dismiss that reality — it helps you bring it honestly before the God who is sovereign over it.

Scripture for the Anxious Heart

"Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you."

1 Peter 5:7

"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God."

Isaiah 41:10

Biblical counseling is ministry care, not a substitute for medical or psychiatric treatment. If anxiety is severely impacting your ability to function, or if you are experiencing thoughts of self-harm, please seek immediate medical or licensed clinical support. RHM will encourage appropriate referral when needed.

You Don't Have to Walk Through This Alone

RHM would be honored to help you seek the Lord's wisdom and care in this season.

Care That Is Measured — Because People Are What Matter

Restoring Hope Ministries tracks the well-being of every participant in our clinical and faith-based services using empirically validated screeners, clinical interviews, behavioral analysis, and self-report — so we can honestly see whether the people we serve are getting better.

This rigor reflects the training of our founder, Dr. Jeffrey Gross, who earned an M.S. in Clinical Psychology from the Wisconsin School of Professional Psychology and is continuing his Psy.D. studies in Clinical Psychology, with completion anticipated in 2028. His Th.D. in Theology and Ph.D. in Christian Counseling complement that clinical education with theological preparation for Christ-centered soul care.

At Froedtert and the Medical College of Wisconsin, he served as a Student Psychologist and later Chief Student Psychologist, supporting veterans and first responders with traumatic brain injuries through the BRAVE program. His work included assessment, individualized treatment planning, multidisciplinary rehabilitation, psychoeducational and process-oriented groups, and peer supervision. His experience also includes supervised psychological testing of clergy at Milwaukee Psychotherapy Collaborative, recovery-focused group development at The Manor by Windrose, and case management and peer-support supervision at Biehl Bridges to Recovery.

Continuing education in assessment, trauma, neurobehavioral conditions, supervision, ethics, and risk management further informs this approach. Together, these experiences help shape RHM’s commitment to careful assessment, responsible documentation, collaborative care, and attention to each person’s spiritual, relational, emotional, and practical needs. His clinical psychology doctorate remains in progress; this background does not replace the qualifications or licensure required for regulated clinical services.
