Rick Thomas has been training and counseling in the Upstate of South Carolina since 1997. After several years as a counselor and pastor he founded and launched his own Christian training organization in order to assist Christians around the world regarding a better understanding and practice of Christian discipleship.
In the early ’90’s he earned a BA in Theology. Later he earned a BS in Education. In 1993 he was ordained into Christian ministry and in 2000 he graduated with a MA in Counseling. In 2006 he was recognized as a Fellow with a nationally recognized counseling group.
Today his organization represents clients in over 90 countries as well as all 50 states through his consulting, training, blogging, and coaching.
Rick has built an excellent reputation as a counselor, trainer and coach because he has integrity and patience. He is a genuinely kind soul with a great sense of humor. It is no wonder that he is highly sought after as a speaker and teacher! He has taken great care in developing wonderful resources for other Christians who may need a hand in finding good quality material to share with their counselee’s.
He is innovative and has “thinking out of the box” ways to take what we do to the greatest number of people around the globe through webinar and other media. The material Rick presents on his Counseling Solutions Group website daily blog and through the Coffee Breaks is fantastic and relevant and even seasoned counselors will find plenty of wisdom in his writings. I highly recommend Rick Thomas to anyone looking for a speaker, teacher or trainer, and most certainly as a Christian counselor.
