Dealing with Depression and Anxiety
Depression and/or anxiety can be caused by a lot of things. In some cases there may be a biological reason why someone is depressed or anxious. But in many cases, it can result from negative thinking patterns. It can be a distressing if you are a person of faith. You may be thinking, "If I'm a Christian, I am supposed to be full of hope and joy - how come I feel this way?" You are not alone, and your depression or anxiety does not negate your faith. You can find healing with God's help and directive.
New Online Course
I have created a new course I call counseling-in-a-box.* This short course gives practical strategies for overcoming anxiety and depression, and presents strategies I implement in actual counseling sessions with clients. The course is designed for those dealing with these issues, or those looking to support others who are struggling. Includes audio lectures and printable materials:
“Tres is knowledgeable about numerous emotional and spiritual challenges and is a gifted communicator.” |
*This course is for informational purposes only, and is not meant to be used, nor should it be used, to diagnose or treat any medical condition. For diagnosis or treatment of any medical problem, consult a physician.

“Tres is both efficient and effective when it comes to Christian Counseling. He has a heart for people that empowers him to connect relationally. He is well educated and well spoken. There’s also no shortage of emotional maturity in his approach to developing people. If you are looking for solid, theologically-sound Christian Counseling that’s undergirded by authentic relationship, I recommend Tres Adames.” —Pastor Dewayne Hawkins, Life Givers Church
Online Counseling
I offer the same effective Christian counseling I provide at my office in Arizona, but now online. Perhaps you live in an area of the country where there isn't a trusted Christian counselor in your city or town. Maybe you are a church leader and need the added confidentiality of receiving help outside of your community. Rate is $90/session which lasts 30 minutes.

"Tres is a caring, knowledgeable, and professional counselor. He is able to relate to his clients and speaks to them in a manner that allows them to understand things from a psychological basis. The part that I find most inspiring is that he also shares the hope and healing to be found in God. His sessions strike a perfect balance of using psychology to understand how people think and feel, while also allowing for God and His Word to have the final say in someone's recovery and journey." —Gina Weeks, Sharing His Hope Ministries
