Veritas Counseling found its name in the halls of history and carries with it a very rich meaning. The idea was born from the Biblical statement where Pilate said to Jesus, "what is truth?" After researching Veritas, the Greek word for truth, the answer to Pilate's question became apparent. Veritas, in Roman mythology, was a goddess who was clothed in white and hid in the bottom of a holy well because she was so elusive. At Veritas Counseling, we believe the same applies today-many people remain in the same place in life simply because they have not encountered the truth about their lives. It is our hope to pursuse with you, the elusive truth and therefore, find the freedom you desire.
