Pure Desire: 7 Pillars (Men)
New group starting every few months
Many men who struggle with sexual brokenness try to go it alone. They believe the lie that sexual brokenness is about sex; when really, it’s about medicating the pain in their lives.
Through Seven Pillars of Freedom, you’ll start to understand your whole story and identify what contributes to your sexual brokenness. You will begin your recovery from unwanted sexual behavior with a trusted group of men on the same journey. Through Seven Pillar’s guided lessons, and a trusted community, you will develop the tools necessary to break free, heal your relationship, and take back your life. Being part of a 7 Pillars group is completely confidential.

Pure Desire: Betrayal & Beyond (Women)
New group starting every few months
The pain and trauma created through sexual betrayal is devastating. The life you thought you had is gone. And now, you are consumed with thoughts and feelings you’ve never experienced before—thoughts and feelings you can’t even describe. Being able to process your experiences in a safe, grace-filled community—and working at a pace that encourages self-discovery—will empower you to make strides in your healing and equip you to make informed decisions for your future. All of this, and so much more, from a biblically based and clinically informed approach to healing!
GriefShare
Monday nights 6pm
Starting February 3, 2025
Grieving the loss of someone close to you? Find comfort and support at GriefShare – a 13-week grief support group. You can join at any time!
A GriefShare support group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. You’ll receive valuable guidance and tips, leading you to relief, comfort, and peace of mind.
Thursday nights 6pm
Starting January 9
An 8 week study of Psalms and Saints focused on dealing with anxiety and depression.
Life has always been full of challenges, and Jesus assured us that it always would be. But today's Christians are facing a world that seems to grow more challenging by the hour. A world that seems empty of hope and overflowing with fear. A world moving away from God at an alarming rate.
How do we find hope and peace in these challenging times? Especially when we ourselves feel overwhelmed with fear, anxiety, and hopelessness.
Fortunately we have been given the gift and the weapon that is scripture. A powerful tool filled with encouragement and guidance.
Join us as we meet men and women of the Bible who faced great challenges, learn from their stories, and explore how the tools we are given in the Word can turn our mourning to dancing, our tears into joy, and our fear into peace.
Starting March 1
Does your partner control what you do, who you spend time with, or tell you how you feel? Are you confused by your partner’s anger or feel afraid?
Have you experienced abuse in the past and now realize that you still need some healing? Perhaps you are ready to move forward or are just looking for some support from others. If any of these are a “yes”, this program is for you.
Her Journey is a transformative 15-week (start anytime) faith-based program that provides a safe and supportive environment for women seeking healing from current or past abusive or controlling relationships. Our faith-based class, loosely based on the profound teachings of Psalm 23, offers a comprehensive approach to healing, restoration, and spiritual growth.

About Dr. Corey Gilbert
Over the last 22 years, I’ve devoted my life to counseling, coaching, & teaching individuals, couples, and families struggling with past abuse especially in the areas of trauma, adultery, struggles with sex, sexuality, and gender identity. As a Licensed Professional Counselor with a PhD in Family Psychology, I’ve seen hundreds of people break free from the limiting beliefs that hold them back. I’ve seen people stop constantly questioning who they are and instead get excited about where they’re going. And most importantly to me, I’ve seen people freed from their past experiences and start enjoying life. I want the same for you.
Today, I am the CEO and Founder of the HealingLives Center, an acclaimed author, and sought-after speaker. Every day I work passionately to support and coach individuals of all walks of life to overcome their pain, understand who they are, and even see the value in their suffering.
