What is the Immanuel Approach?
Developed primarily by Dr. Karl Lehman, Christian Psychiatrist, the Immanuel Approach is a Christian healing modality that combines modern neuroscience with spiritual practices to establish an interactive connection with Jesus. The core objective is to shift the focus from “fixing symptoms” to building a deeper intimacy with God, viewing emotional healing as a natural byproduct of that relationship. It utilizes “relational circuits” in the brain, which must be “online” for a person to effectively connect with others and God. Sessions begin by recalling a positive memory and stirring up deliberate appreciation. This physiological state helps “turn on” the brain’s relational centers, making the person more receptive to perceiving God’s presence. It emphasizes a tangible, two-way interaction where the recipient doesn’t just think about Jesus but experiences a living connection with Him. Learn more with Dr. Lehman’s Introduction video above.

Founder & CEO
Julia Gifford, CP-IA
As a Certified Immanuel Approach Practitioner, Julia is dedicated to helping others cultivate a secure and lasting attachment to Immanuel. Her mission is to guide individuals toward a deeper, interactive relationship with Jesus.
Julia’s journey toward healing took a pivotal turn when she discovered the Immanuel Approach. For nearly two decades, she had sought healing through counseling with minimal progress. However, within just one year of meeting with Jesus through the Immanuel Approach, Julia experienced more profound healing than she had in all the years of therapy combined.
