Our History

Today Stronghold is faithful to the gifts God has given each of us. Our practice is Biblically based, yet clinically sound. All staff are fully licensed and continuing a lifelong process of education, including writing for professional publications.

Stronghold Counseling Services Inc. opened in 1993 to serve families, couples and individuals. Founding partners J.C. Chambers, Ed.D., and Marlene Ruff, M.A., and staff combine for more than 30 years of clinical experience, mostly in the Sioux Falls area. In the last year Dr. Chambers has assumed sole leadership of the agency.

We invite you to let us assist you. We can help solve problems and deal with the discouraging issues of life. We welcome people of all faiths, as well as those outside the church who are looking for guidance without judgment, and hope without hype in the trials of everyday life.
