Judy Weckerly · ACBC Certified Biblical Counselor
Biblical Counseling for Difficult Seasons
You don’t have to carry this alone.
Grounded in Scripture, present in the hard places, and certified through the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors. Biblical counseling that begins where you are — not where you think you should be.
What biblical counseling actually looks like
Biblical counseling is not just “pray harder” and a list of Bible verses handed to you while your pain sits unnamed. It is not a formula. It is not a method. It is discipleship. It is a conversation — rooted in Scripture and held with care. Biblical counseling that takes your real life seriously.
Judy doesn’t rush to answers. She listens first. She asks questions. She compassionately brings God’s Word to what you are actually walking through and lets Scripture do its work at the pace it needs to.
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”2 CORINTHIANS 1:3–4
You might already know why you’re here
Maybe your marriage is struggling and you don’t know where to turn. Maybe anxiety has followed you into every room. Maybe grief has settled in and you’re not sure it will lift. Maybe prayer feels hollow in a way you’re afraid to admit out loud.
You don’t have to have it figured out before you reach out. You don’t have to be in crisis. And you don’t have to explain yourself perfectly.
Judy counsels people who are —
- Struggling with anxiety, fear, or grief
- Walking through marriage difficulties or relational pain
- Spiritually stuck or distant from God
- Carrying guilt, loss, or a heaviness they can’t quite name
Judy’s primary focus is women, but she also co-counsels couples alongside her husband Scott.
Your first conversation
Reaching out is the hardest step for most people. Here is what happens when you take it.
You send a message
A short note — as much or as little as you’d like to share.
Judy responds personally
She’ll ask a few questions to understand your situation. Every message gets a personal reply.
You find a time to connect
That first conversation is not an evaluation. It’s simply a beginning — a chance for you to share what you are carrying, and for Judy to hear it.
Come as you are. Bring what is real.
Begin a Conversation with Judy No pressure. No intake form. Just a conversation.
Training & certification
ACBC Certified
Judy is certified through the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC) — the recognized standard for biblical counseling in the local church, requiring formal training, supervised counseling hours, and doctrinal examination.
She counsels from the conviction that Scripture is the ultimate standard, inerrant and sufficient — that God’s Word speaks to the whole of human experience, including the parts that are hardest to name.
Testimonials
The words of those walked alongside
“When I began working with Judy, I was really struggling with my faith. I was at the point where I had to choose every morning to believe in God’s goodness, even though my doubts were so loud. She guided me back to God to build a stronger faith, and she filled me with encouragement. She nurtured my hurting heart with her compassion and also spoke the truth in love when I needed it. She assigned exercises that helped me heal my emotions and get my thoughts centered on Christ. She knew exactly when I needed a bit of lifting up and when I needed a little push. I cannot recommend Judy enough because she has been a beautiful reflection of the hands and feet of Christ.”
“If you’re looking for truth and real peace, Judy can help you find it. Always pointing you to the Scriptures and the One who truly heals. Judy is a wonderful counselor who truly listens. She will always guide you to truth, and the Source of real healing. She helped me redirect my issues to the main problem, so I can better see the solution.”
“There are not enough words to describe the gratitude I have for Judy. When I began my counseling journey with her, I was at a point in my life when I’d never felt more confused and broken. Traditional therapy and psychiatry had done little to aid me. Judy’s words, through the wisdom of the Bible, brought me a peace that I never knew was possible. She doesn’t simply listen when you speak, she hears you. She’s patient and kind. Her guidance is steeped in biblical understanding. She doesn’t give you the answers you want, or think you need to hear, but rather provides you with the tools for finding the strength you need in the word of God. She has helped me find the power to help myself. Judy has been an invaluable blessing in my life and I will always be grateful for her.”
“Judy is a kind and patient counselor. She sat with us when we were struggling and heard us out. She made a real difference in the outcome of our troubles by giving us perspectives that were grounded in the faith and helped us overcome our struggles.”
“Judy Weckerly is a woman of impeccable character, deep biblical conviction, and genuine love for the Lord and people. Her commitment to the Scriptures is evident not only in what she believes, but in the way she lives and cares for others. Judy brings wisdom, compassion, humility, and grace to her counseling ministry, always seeking to point people toward the truth and hope found in Jesus Christ. I have tremendous respect for Judy and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a counselor who will care deeply, listen well, and faithfully bring the wisdom of Scripture to bear.”
Questions people often ask
What is biblical counseling?
Biblical counseling is rooted in God’s Word, speaking His truth in love. It is Christ-centered, leading to heart change, spiritual growth, and lasting hope. It’s care that brings God’s Word, at the pace it needs, to what you’re actually walking through.

No. Biblical counseling is Christ-centered, scripturally anchored care — not clinical diagnosis or treatment. Judy is certified through the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC), not a licensed clinical therapist.
Do I have to be in crisis to begin?
No. You don’t have to be in crisis or have anything figured out. You can begin a conversation whenever you’re ready — come as you are, bring what is real.
Do you counsel couples?
