The Certificate in Gospel Care and Mental Health for the Marketplace Leader is specifically designed to strengthen Gospel centered marketplace and lay leaders as agents of transformation and renewal in their areas of influence. These are individuals who love the Lord, but are not serving in a full time vocational ministry. With a particular focus on the emotional and spiritual health of the individual, leaders will examine and cultivate their inner life through personal reflection, assessments, and experiential practices. Leaders will have the opportunity to develop tools for effective change as they shape, engage, and encourage the development and wellness of those they serve in their work, church, and community. Our program is committed to equipping and supporting individuals to enhance their leadership competencies, further develop their leadership presence, and create fulfilling relationships and lasting impact in their communities.

Dr. Jaslyn Dixon
Jaslyn hails from that most-famed cultural epicenter of the Western Hemisphere, fabulous Orange County. Growing up, she attended private Christian schools – not because her family believed in Jesus, but simply for the quality of education. In 9th grade, she began attending a church with a friend and first grasped the beauty of the gospel. She realized that being a Christian wasn’t about being a “good person,” but was instead about receiving the love, forgiveness, and grace of Christ. Soon after that, Jaslyn’s parents also came to know Jesus and commit their lives to Him.
Shortly after deciding to follow Jesus, it dawned on Jaslyn that she wanted to be a Christian counselor, as it combined her passions for loving God and loving people. In the years of education that followed, God opened doors every step of the way as she pursued this goal. After much hard work, she received her Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy and became a licensed MFT, followed by a Master’s in Spiritual Formation and Soul Care from BIOLA’s Talbot Seminary. She spent several years working in government programs, a community clinic, and as Gospel Care Director at RealityLA.
