Quotes from Ryan:

“Think of counseling as healing. So it’s often like resolving something in the past to make the present better. Think of coaching as growth. So often it’s helping somebody who has a vision or something they want to achieve or helping somebody who’s stuck in an area of life and helping them move forward from there.” Tweet: “Think of counseling as healing.

“A real common misconception is that counseling is just about truth telling and so it’s about giving someone the right information and then they change because you have this ‘special training.’ It’s much more about the relationship. It’s about two people being authentic and being real and letting each other in at a real depth.” Tweet: “A real common misconception is that counseling is just about truth telling and so it’s about giving someone the right information and then they change because you have this ‘special training’...It’s much more about the relationship.

Just somebody completely different that they can just be real with.” Tweet: “I would highly encourage pastors to get into relationships and to invest in relationships.
