It’s Okay To Not Be Okay

committed to assisting members and nonmembers face life’s deep and difficult issues
by providing free, onsite, Christ-centered counseling. It’s okay not to be okay but not
okay to stay that way. Our staff counselors will also have a trusted list of referrals for
situations beyond their comfort to advise.

The Rocky Creek website provides resources as a supplement, not as a
substitute for face-to-face conversations. The resources provide some first
steps for those hesitant to begin counseling. Resources also provide follow-
up guides for those needing more support after counseling.
Allen Mayberry
Allen received a Master of Divinity and a Master in Biblical Counseling
from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. His clinical experience includes working in a group practice as a state-licensed counselor, in biblical counseling practices, and in church-based group counseling environments. Striving to be clinically-informed, he is ultimately driven by the content and spirit of Scripture and biblical wisdom. With certification to use Prepare-Enrich, a couples relational assessment tool, Allen brings wise counsel to couples at both the premarital or marital seasons of a relationship. Along with relationship counsel, he also has experience working with people through life transitions and anger. His heart as a counselor is to come alongside those struggling with various forms of anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and to guide men to overcome integrity issues.
