    Beth Forby is by far the best counselor for my daughter. She received real life suggestions on how to overcome challenges with practical solutions. We have been blessed by Dr. Forby’s and her God-centered sessions.

    Dr. Beth Forby truly does care about my well being to help me move through my struggles. Having a Christian Counselor who prays for me and uses the wisdom from Gods word makes a huge difference. She has definitely been a main support system for me. Beth has been very helpful and has provided great feedback to help me with dealing with the specific issues going on in my life. I recommend Dr. Beth Forby 100% to anyone looking for a counselor or help with difficult situations. She is a true Blessing!
