“Our weekend with George proved to be a great springboard to learning more about each other, and how to then use what we learned to better communicate and appreciate each other’s point of view.  It’s amazing how much our history shapes us – and then again, how much we forget to share our history with each other. It’s the seemingly insignificant points that actually become like a spot light shedding vision on how to better become one.  George pushed us, but never too much. He prodded, but only choosing to prod where needed.  George was able to adjust his style based on ours – something truly important when you’ve committed so much time to this retreat!  And with the entire weekend blanketed by faith, this was an experience that will forever help to shape the future of our marriage.”  J.

George as insightful, empathic & balancing psychological and Biblical principles
"I have found George to be an extremely insightful counsellor. One of his greatest gifts is his ability to be empathic. He maintains an harmonious balance between psychological and Biblical principles. His emphasis in listening prayer therapy has proven to be tremendously helpful to me in my search for self-awareness and healing.
I am amazed at the results. Not only has God given me tremendous insight into my emotional scars and the lies I had believed, He has also replaced these with His truth."

Sharon of Beaton, Ontario

More postive self-image
George has a great sense of humour that compliments his sincere nature which is backed up by an enlightening and deep faith in the Lord.
His counseling helped give me a more positive self-image and erased typical pitfalls that my Christian faith had fallen into. He is very flexible and truly caring, and with God's help guided me to a path that I think eventually will lead me out of my tendency towards depression and past hurts.    Tish, Ontario, Canada.

Healing to mind, will and emotions
Thank you for your kind and gentle touch in dealing with such delicate heart and soul matters.  Thank you for your amazing intimate relationship with Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.  Thank you for introducing me to another facet of how he ministers healing to our minds, our will and our emotions. Thank you for sharing the amazing gifts of understanding, revelation and spiritual discernment.  Our Lord Jesus has blessed you richly George.  Thank you for posting what you have come to understand in your articles online.  They have blessed family, friends and, myself. Praise the Lord that He had you training with Agnes Sanford. Thank you for sharing your story. Thank you for recommending * John Paul Jackson's book. I found his website Streams Ministries to be filled with further enriching articles. 

Sincerely, Sonia, alberta, Canada

Understanding the root of family issues
In my childhood I was often neglected, abandoned and rejected. George helped me to understand the root of family issues after one session. He uncovered core issues that were holding me back as an adult and has given me the emotional and spiritual support to rise above the abandonment and rejection I went through as a child. Katherine, Toronto

George brings humour, hope. life and discovering of God-given identity
George – Thank You. You have brought hope and life to me and to so many in our fellowship through your teaching and prayer ministry. The possibility of discovering our God-given identity through this life transformation ministry is exciting and I look forward to hearing Jesus speak more truth into my life and the lives of others, so we can live in the freedom Jesus intends. I’ll miss you, your humour and your Snoopy dives! Haste you back!

Oppressive burdens of the past being lifted off my life

George taught me to bring Christ into the memory of abusive situations. This is a new experience for me in my relationship to God, and I'm still learning. But I've already felt oppressive burdens of the past being lifted from my life. I strongly recommend George to anyone whose past has been a stumbling block to their joy and to their mission in life.   Janet, Westlake OH.   

Compassion for myself and a connection with God

"I was freed from strongholds"- I felt completely relaxed
"I desperately needed someone to talk with and help me work out the struggles that I was facing. George was the first therapist I had ever sat down with and with him I felt completely relaxed. His healing prayer therapy had a tremendously positive effect on my life; I literally was freed from strongholds that were at work in my life. I am very grateful to George and sincerely recommend him."         Gene Alexander, of Toronto, Ontario

George is gentle, realistic, has empathy and gives me hope.
I have learned to trust George and his advice.  I like the fact that George is gentle (non-judgmental), realistic (practical), has empathy and gives me hope and, therefore, something to stand on and to carefully work out.                             
George left some principles with me on getting out of depression. I came out of the depression.  I am learning to accept that, as a child of God, God loves me and not to judge myself.   
Comments from  Ken B. - Toronto,Ontario

Deliverance from demons with a difference!
Note:  (I do not use traditional deliverance methods.  I focus on recieving God's truth through listening prayer therapy to deal with core beliefs in a memory.  After this, deliverance can be quiet, gentle and rapid.)

"This has been quite amazing. It has seemed to short-circuit stuff quite immensely. It has been very powerful, useful and exciting to see it go.  We spent a lot of time (200 hours plus) kicking out a lot of demons. You have revisited the places and achieved what we did not achieve."
Mr. White, Scarborough, Ontario

Prayer Therapy for Early Memories

"I would recommend George to anyone really seeking help and the wonderful healing the Lord can graciously bring.  George was able to be both present to me, hearing and really listening to me, and present also to the Holy Spirit, ministering and praying as He led.  He validated my feelings and at the same time was able to bring real insight into my life's picture.  I appreciated being able to speak to someone who could understand me and communicate with me in a way that he could see where I was at--instead of being condescending to me.  He was able to go deep quickly when he saw that was my intention.

The Lord really met me in one particular memory as George prayed for me. I was picturing myself in the womb where I have struggled with feelings of being unwanted, rejected, unloved and a really hostile environment. As George prayed, I saw instead my umbilical cord switched over to the Lord's care and the Lord being in the womb with me, surrounding me with waters of love, surrounding me with Him and His glory.  As I have continued praying through this and inviting the Lord there, I have felt that my time in the womb was like heaven, since Jesus was in there with me!  The Lord loved me and sang over me with great joy even then!

Thank you Lord and thank you George!"

 Chris from California.

Thank you, again for your assistance.  (My wife) is showing signs of great improvement (from phone counseling).  God is good.  May He bless you.  Sincerely, Jim C (pastor, Rochester, New York).

I feel George is a "God send" as he uses his experiences, education and faith in Jesus Christ to heal me from the inside out.  I believe in the way George counsels and that God brought him in my life to help mend my broken heart.  Amy

 "Jesus has become very real, personal and dear to me."

I am amazed at the results. Not only has God given me tremendous insight into my emotional scars and the lies I had believed, He has also replaced these with His truth. I have experienced phenomenal healing and am now confident that complete healing is possible in the immediate future. The added bonus is that, throughout this process, Jesus has become very real, personal and dear to me."     Sharon D, of Beaton, Ontario,

"I saw God the Father proudly holding me in His arms!" "My birth was at the very time that my mother was in grief over the loss of her mother. It seemed that I was born at the wrong time; that I was a pain. I became super responsible – thought everything was my fault.  However, in a prayer encounter, I saw God the Father proudly holding me in his arms and showing “His daughter” to everyone. There was a welcome party at my birth! A celebration! This brought an explosion of joy and new life to my heart. Now, instead of shrinking away from life, I want to come forth. I have much less feeling of depression and of giving up on life." Madeline Rici,  of Mississauga, Ontario                                   [TOP]

George's faith is instrumental in Listening Prayer Therapy - he guided me to have the same faith in what I was experiencing
I was surprised that I could have an encounter with God so easily and that He was so willing to heal me right then, right there. I believe George's faith has been and is instrumental in Listening Prayer Therapy.  It is he who guided me and instructed me in how to listen to God and to have the same faith in what I was experiencing. Now, I know in my heart that God is Love, He loves me, He is on my side and is always there for me.  For my part, I need to be honest with Him and totally open, He does the rest.

Precision Healing - God guides is to just the right place.

"The nice thing from my perspective is that out of the many things in a person's past and in the aspects of yourself that you are not even aware of, Jesus leads just exactly to the spot that needs to be dealt with. It gets dealt with and then you are to the next spot."

So the precision in dealing with what has to be dealt with is a nice part of this." 

Paul White - Vineyard pastor (Scarborough)

George helped me when I was desperate for answers
I came to you in a lot of pain, feeling desperate and looking for answers. George,you helped me to come to an understanding of myself and how to better handle my situation.
George provides support and guidance in a time of crisis
George, your support and guidance in this time of crisis has been valuable and much appreciated. My husband sees the changes in me - He just doesn't believe that they will last.
Sometimes people come into your life and you know right way that they were meant to be there - to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson, or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to be. This for me has been you, George, and your counselling and guidance.
Your counselling has helped me to love unconditionally, realize my potential strengths and weakness and helped me to try to overcome negativity in my relationships with my husband. Both my husband and family have mentioned that they have witnessed a lot of change in me.             Elizabeth, Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada.

My life turned around

I am writing to you today after such a long time because I want to tell you how my life turned around so positively with your help. Not only back then but my life continues to be wonderful.

As you well know, 4 years ago things in my life had gone so wrong and I knew I needed to do something about it. I also knew I couldn't do it alone and thank God I found you. If it weren't for your help, professional knowledge, faith in God, prayer, and love combined with my wanting to heal from within I don't think I would have found this new wonderful life I am experiencing.

Since then I have married and have a new life filled with trust and love, my wonderful husband and our little son. 

I truly believe that after all that prayer, listening, healing and removing old baggage I was able to move on and believe. I also truly believe that all this happiness was God sent.

I am grateful to God and I am grateful to you George.

Being set free from legalism resulting in depression
Granted, medications helped me to cope somewhat, but I found that masking "the source" of my  emotional stresses would  only allow me to cope with the fight within, to a  degree.  So, I determined to  get George's help through his many years of experience so that I could understand the "sources" and deal with them thus, gain a  freedom which would set me on a path of healings. George is helping me to reach the  goal of being set free from legalism and all that goes with being chained within!

The Lord is doing it for me through counselling with George

I know that God heals us, if we open up and allow him to clean up our cesspool.  I believe everyone has different amount of stuff in their cesspool, some have more than others.  The Lord starts to strip, operate, remove, work on, change, etc. the Boulders, then the Rocks, then the STONES (ever so getting more and more painful), the dirt, the grit, the grain (as mustard seed (many, many, many of these); we will never be perfect or arrive in our humanness until we meet him in the air); we will be fallible ONLY The Lord is Infallible and Perfect     BUT      in the meantime we can with The Lord help, get healed up from the hurts, pains, disappointments, letdowns, etc., etc. from this life.   If the Lord is doing it for me through counselling with George, The Lord can and will do it for anyone. Individual client, Sept, 2005

George in Scotland (2005):

George has brought to life in me the freedom I experienced at salvation, but have lost over the years - freedom to be me, to dare to trust God, to feature (be a partner) in this relationship with God prominently, to experience heaven here.  I have experienced an awakening and a realization that we are always being reborn. Its not a one of.  Hallelujah! Liz of Saltcoats, Scotland
	I am grateful for learning a practical, tangible way of getting in touch with God and hearing from Him. God does speak and does change your life. Claire, Saltcoats, Scotland.
Discovering how to get God's Word from your head to your heart, in a few easy steps of praying and listening to God, was great. And is something I will do with any other experience that keeps me bound. Jesus is the key, but, now, I have been shown how to use it; and open the door to my life, which I had kept well locked up under lock and key.  Thanks, Katie :-) Stevenston, Scotland
	Thank you for the way you pray and teach. Its been so encouraging watching Jesus transform lives through your prayer ministry. Its been so well received within the congregation and brought healing and freedom. I can also testify to it. Enjoyed having you. Come again soon. Helen, Stevenston, Scotland.

References from clergy:

Andy Leroux, Anglican priest at St. Ninian's anglican church in Scarbourough (416) 438-2211, says regarding Pastors' retreats: "Our pastor's group (retreats) have been a journey into how we can be a community of life in an otherwise hostile environment." "I have known George for many years ...as friend and colleague. I highly recommend George as a man of integrity, and would have no trouble recommending him as a wise counsellor. George is a very trustworthy man and has many years of experience and wisdom in the area of counselling. ... It is with conviction that I recommend George as a highly skilled and trained counsellor." Father Bill Comerford, priest at St. Patricks Roman Catholic Church, Toronto, says:  "I recommend George as a counsellor. He is a wise man with much experience."

From an E-mail Contact:

George,  Thank you for this insight. It does help me to understand and maybe begin to try to fix myself.  I will try my best to continue to be patient and pray to God and make Him my focus instead of obsessing about my relationship with Lisa.  I will also try my best to get Lisa some help with her issues or maybe mentioning them in our counseling sessions.

I really wish our counselor was more like you, and could get right to the root-cause of our problems and how to deal with them.  It is such an encouraging feeling knowing that there are people like you that know and are willing to spend there own time to help a complete stranger with nothing to gain from it.  Just being able to get things off my chest and having someone to listen is so huge.  I live in ****** , but if some day I am able to meet you and talk to you, I would very much like to.

Thank you so much. God Bless, Phil S.
