Tyler’s Christian counseling approach uses a Quaker tradition known as “clearness committees” and Circles of Trust Approach from Parker Palmer and the Center For Courage and Renewal. Tyler also incorporates both ancient and modern contemplative practices with clients to facilitate a healing and exploratory environment. In his Christian counseling practice, Tyler offers room for solace, silence, and reflection on ones own spiritual life. Tyler encourages clients to ask questions about their faith that they have never been able to ask in church settings.
