Most believers will acknowledge that as Christian we are not immune to the evil in the world – and that includes stress and the fear and anxiety we often experience as a result. But it is not God’s plan for you to remain in bondage to them! He wants to set you free from everything the enemy brings against you so that you can fulfill His purpose for your life. He has created you for big things!

- Determine the underlying source of your fear and anxiety
- Experience improved psychological well-being
- Engage in spiritual warfare practices that will break the enemy’s hold on you
As both a medical doctor and a minister Dr. Carol has the knowledge and experience to help you gain complete liberty from fear and anxiety and realize your full potential. She will help you see that through Jesus, you are an overcomer!
