FIRM FOUNDATION FAMILY SERVICES
Marriage & Family Therapy, Parent Coaching in Northern Virginia
At Firm Foundation Family Services, we provide therapy and coaching rooted in the teachings of scripture, offering Christian counseling that helps individuals and families navigate life's challenges. We believe that the Bible is divinely inspired, revealing who God is, who we are, and how we can live in harmony with Him and one another.
Biblical Counseling for Couples, Families & Individuals
In a world of troubled marriages, strained family dynamics, and broken relationships, a Biblical framework provides both clarity and healing. Scripture teaches us the origins of conflict and offers a path to restoration through faith, wisdom, and grace.
Our Core Values
-
God’s Design for Relationships
God is the Author of life and the Creator of marriage, parenthood, and family. When we walk in obedience with Him, our relationships are characterized by love, respect, fulfillment, and reflect His divine purpose.
-
God is Good
He desires that people fulfill their purpose to love and serve Him and others in fruitful relationships that glorify Him. God’s good intentions may involve suffering, but He is faithful to sanctify His own for His glory and their edification.
-
The Power of Family
Families shape us deeply, offering both immense joy and potential heartache. Strengthening family bonds through Biblically-based therapy can lead to lasting peace and restoration.
-
Therapy as a Tool for Alignment
Faith-based counseling and coaching help individuals and families align their lives with God’s good, pleasing, and perfect will.
-
A Trusting, Compassionate Approach
Humility, compassion, and a non-judgmental stance are essential in fostering a therapeutic environment rooted in both truth and grace.

“Carrington is not only a great listener, she is wise and insightful. She has the ability to hear what a person is saying and then read between the lines to motives and desires behind the words....I am thankful for the the way she led me to see the good that was happening already in my family, and supported me in making changes to increase that good!"
