ABOUT
Dr. Bob Schuchts & Jake Khym, MA are Catholic therapists with over 50 years combined experience teaching and accompanying people into fuller life and freedom. They met about 12 years ago and quickly realized they were kindred spirits with a similar understanding of the value of an integrated approach to the healing journey. They both understand the keys for people to experience and live a restored life. Currently, Bob and Jake have their own ministries and are delighted to collaborate on events and conferences. They hope the Restore The Glory Podcast will be an accessible way for people to hear the good news of freedom that is available in and through Jesus Christ.
Dr. Bob Schuchts, Ph.D. is the founder of the John Paul II Healing Center (JPIIHC), and offers conferences throughout North America to bring about transformation in the heart of the Church.

He retired from counseling and teaching in 2014 to devote full time to serving through the JPIIHC. Bob is the author of Be Healed: Encountering the Powerful Love of Jesus in Your Life and several other published resources (including books, talks and workbooks) available through the John Paul II Healing Center. His latest book about unity and healing in marriage is called Be Devoted. Bob was married for 42 years until his wife’s death in 2017.
