Why It Matters
_______
Aerobic/Strength Training activity plays a vital role in mental and emotional well-being. Research shows that consistent movement can enhance focus, impulse control, and emotional regulation—especially in children and adolescents managing ADHD, anxiety, or stress. For parents, shared physical activity provides natural opportunities to model self-care, perseverance, and faith-based resilience. Strong family bonds and genuine connection remain among the best protective factors against emotional distress and unhealthy behaviors. Faith & Family Fit equips families to grow closer, communicate better, and live healthier—body, mind, and spirit.
THE WELLNESS CROSSING
WHERE FAITH, FITNESS & MENTAL HEALTH MEET
We are excited to announce that Walk By Faith Counseling will open it's second location inside The CulTure, a Christian gym in the Fox Valley, beginning September 29th.
As a veteran with service-connected PTSD, I’ve long envisioned a space where fitness and mental health could come together—especially to support other veterans. This integration has played a significant role in my own healing journey. In May, I reached out to Mr. Cameron Brown, the owner of The CulTure, to gain his insight on whether this vision was truly feasible. I understood how a counseling center runs, but the behind-the-scenes of a gym was completely new territory for me.
What unfolded was nothing short of providential. Cameron shared that he, too, had been dreaming of integrating faith, fitness, and mental health—but specifically for youth. He also explained that he would soon be relocating back to Kentucky to step into full-time ministry, while his cousin, Manny Johnson, would continue serving as General Manager of The CulTure.
A week later, our families met up at Noah’s Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky, and while our children explored the exhibits, we shared and refined our vision—a youth-centered program, a unique space for veterans, and expanded services for the general public—all designed to blend faith, fitness, and mental health. In that moment, The Wellness Crossing was born, where faith, fitness, and mental health meet.

Noah’s Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky is included here to commemorate that special day and the unity of our vision.
This September, our aim is to:
- Launch a youth-centered outpatient therapy program focused on emotion regulation, social skills, and coping strategies.
- Begin offering integrated fitness and mental health services for clients when clinically indicated and desired.
We know that for many, a gym environment can feel intimidating--or even overwhelming. But simple movement, walking and talking, and being seen in a supportive environment can release endorphins, reduce anxiety and depression, and build confidence. That’s what we hope to offer through The Wellness Crossing.
Throughout August and September, we’ll be preparing—renovating spaces, establishing policies and procedures, and getting everything in place to bring this vision to life. Lord willing, this new initiative will become a healing resource for many in the Fox Valley community.
We can’t wait to share more in the coming weeks.
