Christian Therapists in Crossfield, AB
Children experience the world differently from adults. While adults use words, children express themselves through play. Play therapy offers a safe space for children to explore emotions, develop coping skills, and build confidence.
Parenting can be both rewarding and overwhelming, especially when your child is struggling with anxiety, emotional regulation, or behavioural challenges. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I work with children (3 years old +), teens, families experiencing divorce or separation, and parents, creating a supportive space to build resilience, strengthen relationships, and improve emotional well-being.

It can be hard to carry everything alone— especially when decision-making feels impossible, relationships feel strained, or it's hard to feel like yourself. It's ok to not have all the answers. I wholeheartedly believe that one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story.
Sometimes we all need someone who listens with care, holds space for our story, and helps untangle what’s been building up. It’s not about fixing you - it’s about gaining clarity, rediscovering your strengths, and reconnecting with the part of you that knows how to move forward.

Hi, and welcome! I specialize in working with adults navigating ADHD, anxiety, complex trauma, and relationship difficulties. Oftentimes, these concerns can show up all together, making life extra difficult to navigate. Maybe you have felt different for a long time, or like you have to work twice as hard just to keep up. Perhaps you have spent your whole life masking or pushing through, but the mask has become too heavy to maintain; leaving you exhausted, full of self-doubt, feeling lost, and like you are "not good enough" and "too much" at the same time. If any of this resonates, you’re not alone, and I can help!

My ideal client is someone who knows there’s more to life than just coping or getting by. They may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—carrying stress, trauma, burnout, or old wounds, sometimes from family, relationships, or faith. They long for freedom, wholeness, and a life that feels authentic and fully alive. They’re ready to look inward, heal what hurts, and grow into who they were created to be—mind, body, emotions, and spirit.

We are all longing for connection. Everyone wants to be seen, heard, and valued. When someone struggles with childhood wounds or trauma, they often feel unworthy of love or acceptance and that affects their day-to-day life and relationships. Maybe you have even developed some unhealthy coping skills like addictions, avoidance, or negative self-talk. Pushing away your needs and not working through these challenges can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. It should not be so hard to live a better life. Together, we can find connection, hope, and change!

FAQ - About Christian Counselling
What can a Christian therapist help with?
Many Christian counsellors incorporate faith-based principles into psychotherapy and draw guidance from biblical writings. This approach may be particularly helpful if you are experiencing concerns related to faith, prolonged grief, substance use, or questions about life’s purpose. Christian therapists may also offer marital, premarital, or family counselling. These can be helpful options if your concerns are more relational in nature, such as communication challenges in a marriage, conflict within a family, or adjustment following a major family transition, such as divorce or a move.
How does Christian faith shape the therapy experience?
Christian faith can shape the therapy experience by giving you a familiar framework for discussing meaning, purpose, forgiveness, relationships, and hope in sessions. For clients who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may draw on Christian values, prayer, or spiritual reflection alongside other therapeutic approaches. In addition, while training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has shown that a strong alliance between you and your therapist is a major contributor to therapeutic success. An alliance is likely to be strengthened with a therapist who not only is responsive to questions and concerns, but also shares a client’s faith and values. Nevertheless, an ethical Christian therapist should be clear about how they incorporate faith and should respect the level of spiritual discussion that feels right for you.
Does Christian therapy work across different denominations?
Christian therapy can be helpful for people from various different Christian traditions, including Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, and Anglican backgrounds. Many Christian therapists are able to support clients across denominations by focusing on shared Christian values, such as faith, prayer, forgiveness, and hope. That said, denomination can matter for some clients. A person’s identified denomination may shape how they understand relationships and life roles. If these differences are important to you, it may be helpful to ask a therapist whether they have experience working with clients from your specific denomination or faith tradition.
Can a Christian therapist help with marriage and couples counselling?
Christian faith-based therapy can take many different forms, including marriage counselling and couples counselling. Some therapists may also offer Christian pre-marital counselling. In these settings, Christian therapists may work with couples on concerns such as communication, conflict, trust, intimacy, parenting, and major life transitions. A Christian therapist may also help couples explore how shared Christian beliefs shape the relationship. They may encourage you and your partner to practise skills learned in therapy in your everyday lives, including both faith-based practises and non-faith-based tools, such as prayer or communication skills.
Can a Christian therapist help with sensitive issues like sex, trauma, or addiction?
Therapists with adequate training should be equipped to help with a number of sensitive issues, including sex, trauma, and addiction. For clients who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may help explore how your spiritual beliefs relate to your challenges, healing, and recovery. A competent and ethical Christian therapist should not judge, shame, or impose a particular belief when discussing these topics, and if you feel judged, it may be time to seek another therapist.
How can a Christian therapist support family therapy?
Christian family therapy can help families address conflict, communication challenges, parenting concerns, grief, or adjustment following a major life transition. A Christian therapist may support family members in understanding one another’s perspectives, improving communication, setting healthier boundaries, and rebuilding trust. For families who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may also help explore how family values related to Christianity can support healing.
How might I enquire about a therapist's experience working with Christian clients?
If religion is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask a prospective therapist whether they have experience working with Christian clients. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might ask how they incorporate Christian values into therapy or how they approach certain topics that matter to you. As sessions begin, it can be helpful to notice how the therapist responds to your concerns. A strong therapeutic alliance does not necessarily require a therapist to share your religious background, but they should respond to your concerns with respect and cultural humility. If you feel dismissed, misunderstood, or find yourself having to explain your beliefs constantly, it may be worth considering another therapist.
Who is included in Psychology Today's directory of Christian therapists?
The directory of Christian therapists includes professionals who have shared their background in their profiles and have identified as Christian. It shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason.
