W.E. Vine defines kardia as "man or woman’s entire mental and moral activities...the hidden springs of the personal life, and so signifies the seat of thought and feeling." The kardia (καρδιά), or heart, is the place that is central to a person's personality, their intellect, emotions and will. The heart denotes the seat of physical life, the seat of moral nature and spiritual life, the seat of grief, joy, desires, affections, perceptions, thoughts, understanding, imagination, intentions, purpose and faith.

Long story short, this "heart" is the seat of our thought processes, the seat of our emotions and the center of a person's perception of who they are and the purpose they have in this life. This is where and what we care for. Hence our name. At Kardia Coastal Counseling, we seek to provide healing and hope in those areas of the "heart" where an individual may be struggling, may feel hopeless, or may feel like they do not matter.
