He earned his masters in Counseling Psychology from Ball State University in 1981. Charley has over 10 years of experience in individual, family and group counseling. He started Christian Counseling Services when he saw the need for a Christian counselor in east central Indiana. CCS was founded in 1985 and is a not-for-profit corporation that is supported by over 30 Christian churches and Churches of Christ in central Indiana as well as over 20 individuals. Chirstian Counseling Services maintains five offices in central Indiana in Muncie, Kokomo, Richmond, Winchester and Greenfield. Charley has his main office in Muncie. The office is located next to the Ball State campus. He also has an office at Macedonia Christian Church, in Kokomo. All of the counseling is Bible based and designed to meet the spiritual needs as well as the emotional and mental needs of the client. Charley’s associate, Sky Allen, counsels at the other three offices. Before founding CCS, Charley worked for three and a half years with a United Way agency as a counselor. He also worked at Notre Dame University in a three month summer employment as a group counselor working for a program designed to help teens think about their future and career

plans. In addition to counseling, Charley also does a lot of speaking on a wide variety of topics. Like his counseling, all of his topics are biblically based. Charley has spoken in Indiana, Ohio, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Tennessee, Michigan, Illinois, Virginia, Missouri and West Virginia. He spends many weekends doing seminars ranging from marriage enrichment to forgiveness. He speaks on over 30 topics. Much of his summers are spent with camps and conferences working with both adult and adolescents.
