As a therapist who is a Christian, I try to follow Christ's example of being compassionate as I come alongside others who are hurting.
I view counseling as a dynamic process between a client and therapist. My theoretical orientation is dependent upon what would be most appropriate for the client. I view each client as unique and I use techniques that are designed to meet that client's specific needs. I listen carefully to my clients so that I can empower, confront when appropriate, teach, encourage, and guide them so they can grow emotionally, spiritually, psychologically and socially. I respect the clients I work with. I want people to participate in a healing process without fear that they will be judged or coerced.

I approach counseling from a Christian perspective, viewing people as made in the image of God.
"The only way out is through." I am committed to helping my clients discover what it means to truly live fully -- to experience healing in relationships, to understand their strength, to embrace their uniquenesses and to live a life of wholeness and adventure. At the core, I believe that we are relational beings, and while relationships are often the primary sources of our pain, they are also the primary conduits to our healing. Together we will find ways THROUGH the pain and into freedom. There is too much LIFE to be lived...too much adventure to be had...

My personal Christian faith influences my life choices and perspectives.
Asking for support can be difficult and intimidating. It’s important to find the right fit between client and therapist. I create a therapeutic environment that is client directed and immediately focuses on the goals that you want to achieve. My agenda is YOUR agenda, and we will move at the pace you desire! I believe everyone’s life is just that… their life and no one else’s. While we often cannot control the cards we are dealt, we can learn to determine and control how we respond to them and what decisions we make with them.

In a culture that pushes for self-sufficiency and perfection, we all rely on coping mechanisms to keep up. Sometimes these coping mechanisms prove helpful, and over time, some prove harmful. I want to encourage you to settle in and take time to pause. To check in and see how you’re coping today. Pausing and listening to our bodies and emotions may feel scary, but you’re here. You’re brave. Many coping mechanisms in our society today promise relief, yet in actuality distance us from ourselves. Busy schedules, substances and media, all fall short of cultivating inner & outer peace.

Life Change Counseling is about a person's right to live in autonomy and move past any situation that caused them to doubt, become shameful, or harbor guilt around their part. Recovery is a process of having someone genuine and non-judgmental to guide them through their thoughts leads to transformation. A client-centered approach in the therapeutic relationship involves self-actualization, empathy, and unconditional positive regard when practicing a person-centered approach. I believe Eclectic therapy isn't a specific type of therapy. The phrase describes the way many counselors work. They may begin therapy in one style and shift to

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Are you struggling with navigating the loss of a loved one, opportunity, or uncertain changes in life? Do you struggle with emotional regulation, self-compassion or finding purpose after trauma or abuse? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how to manage relationships, how to heal from past trauma and abuse, and work through grief and loss. These challenges can take a toll on you, mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I believe that it doesn't have to be this way, and that healing, and growth is possible.

On the other side of worry, fear, and isolation are curiosity, connection and confidence. There is a way out of anxiety, and each movement toward support is courageous. The next step is to engage. I provide a calming space that lends itself to a natural process of healing and growth, and pass from my hand to yours the skills to transform panic into peace. My sincere wish is to know your story, and even more so, to know your story in the way you'd like to tell it. I hope to demonstrate that safe, enduring relationships are real because I am with you all the way.

We believe that everyone needs someone to listen, to feel understood and needs help to see the bigger picture without being judged. We believe that connection and community are essential in the world we live in today. At times, we let our troubles outshine the bigger picture of our life. We all have a need to feel worthy, worthwhile, wanted, appreciated and loved. Without meaningful connection we often try to silence our pain of disconnection by drugs, alcohol, overeating, social media and much more. Loving ourselves and others, vulnerability, connection and community are essential steps for growth as we navigate life’s journey.

Christian Therapists
Why is it important for a therapist to be culturally sensitive?
Therapists and clients don’t need to share the same belief system or background to be able to work effectively together, but a therapist whose training includes a focus on cultural competence may be better able to form a therapeutic bond with individuals from a range of backgrounds, as they will have experience in tailoring their approach to each client—and will be prepared to acknowledge and consider the effects of culture, religion, and other factors on each individual.
Why is it important to find a therapist sensitive to Christian values?
Each person brings a unique history and background to therapy, making it important to find a licensed therapist who is trained in a broad range of treatment modalities. In addition, for people who grow up in a faith tradition that strongly influences the way they conduct their everyday life, finding a therapist who understands or shares that background can ease the disclosure of sensitive information and facilitate the therapeutic process. For some clients, a Christian therapist is likely to incorporate faith-based principles into emotional healing techniques.
How do I recognize an effective Christian therapist?
Christian therapists are licensed mental health professionals—holding a master’s or doctoral degree in medicine, nursing, psychology, counseling, social work, or marriage and family therapy—who are also familiar with Christian beliefs and values. They have an understanding of the importance that Christian principles play in the lives of individuals and families, which allows them to be especially sensitive to the kinds of struggles that can affect daily functioning. Like all effective therapists, a Christian therapist will have undergone training and certification in a variety of treatment modalities that help people through crises and enable them to master the challenges of life.
Why might someone feel comfortable with a Christian therapist?
While training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has long established that a strong alliance between client and 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. Sensitivity to spiritual matters as well as to everyday struggles can provide a welcome sense of safety and contribute to the bond between client and therapist, both of which support the therapeutic process.
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. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason. The directory also shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation.
