Aaron Eaton - MDiv, MBA, MA
Pastoral Psychotherapist Candidate
Aaron grew up in Winston-Salem, NC, where he and his wife are raising their four children, who bring constant joy and adventure to their lives.
For over eight years, Aaron has served as a full-time chaplain for law enforcement and emergency services, providing crisis intervention, pastoral care, and emotional support to first responders, their families, and individuals facing trauma, grief, and loss. Walking alongside people in their most difficult moments has deepened his passion for guiding others through adversity and equipping them with the resources, encouragement, and resilience needed to heal. These experiences have led him to pursue further education in leadership and counseling.
As a pastoral psychotherapist candidate under supervision, Aaron offers professional counseling services with focuses in trauma, grief, stress management, and personal development. He integrates a faith-based perspective with evidence-based therapeutic approaches, helping individuals navigate emotional and mental health challenges. His counseling philosophy centers on fostering emotional resilience, self-discovery, and practical strategies to empower clients in both their personal and professional lives.
Aaron holds a Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies with minors in Pastoral Studies and Counseling, a Master of Divinity, a Master of Business Administration, and a Master of Arts in Executive Leadership. He has also completed six units of Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) and holds certifications in marital and premarital assessments from Prepare/Enrich and SYMBIS. Currently, he is pursuing a Doctor of Ministry in Pastoral Counseling, further deepening his expertise in therapeutic care.
