Guy Gourley MA, MABS, LCPC

Guy is the founder of The Legacy Center for Christian Counseling and has been counseling for thirty years as a therapist. 

He holds two Masters degrees. One from Colorado Christian University in Biblical Counseling and another from Dallas Theological Seminary in Biblical Studies, emphasizing pastoral counseling. He was a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor for over twenty years before becoming a Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor through the NCCA, The National Board of Christian Counselors Examiners.

​

While in Denver, Guy was a therapist in a large group practice working with individuals and couples with anger management and domestic violence issues. As a result, he is highly effective in working with struggling couples, especially those who have little hope for their marriage or relationship. Additionally, Guy furthered his expertise by joining a large group practice in Houston where he has worked primarily with marriages and couples in relationship restoration, adult and adolescent males with anger management issues, adults with depression, anxiety, trauma-related issues, adjustment problems, affair recovery, and single life issues.

He has a passion for relationship restoration and enrichment because he knows that if the marriage stays together, the family stays together. In the past, he partnered with The Clearing, an organization committed to providing marriage intensives that are refreshing to the soul and restoring relationships. Today he still does private intensives for couples.

He thoroughly enjoys combining his faith and spiritual direction to his counseling and respects where a person is in their spiritual journey. Whether developing seminars or speaking, Guy’s heart for people and his passion for his work are evident. His entertaining presentation is both motivating and hope-invigorating. Guy’s insightful and compassionate approach touches people’s hearts where they need it most. We hear his clients comment all the time about how they once were uncertain about getting help and now it is like sitting down with a coach or a good friend.

Guy is frequently requested to present his marriage enrichment seminar and speak at conferences, retreats, divorce recovery programs, and churches. Audiences everywhere overwhelmingly receive him.
