Restoration in Christ Ministries (RCM)
offers training and support to those called to restore lives shattered by abuse.
This is accomplished through our resources, seminars, consultations and support.
Director and Founder of RCM
Tom R. Hawkins, Ph.D.,
Founder and President of Restoration in Christ Ministries, has helped hundreds
of survivors of severe abuse, who suffer from Dissociative Identity Disorder
(DID), since his first exposure to the disorder in 1987. With a Ph.D. in
Biblical Studies, he claims no mental health credentials. However, from 1991 to
1993, he worked closely with mental health professionals in one of the few
Christian in-patient Dissociative Disorders Units in the United States.
Restoration in Christ Ministries was founded in 1994.
While recognizing the value of learning and applying the
generally accepted treatment principles used by professional therapists and
psychiatrists, Dr Hawkins’ treatment approach also addresses the significant
spiritual dynamics occurring in DID, especially in highly complex cases. Using
insights drawn from his own broad range of experience and from networking
consultations with many Christian therapists, Tom is seeing God bring
significant hope to both survivors and their therapists, pastors or prayer
ministers. Consultations with Dr. Hawkins are in great demand across the nation
and abroad.
He and his wife, Diane, have given seminars across the USA,
Canada, New Zealand, Africa, Germany and Australia.
