Life affords each of us a path of unique adventures. In the blink of an eye our happy adventure can change to a path filled with uncertainty, frustration, and powerlessness. We sometimes find ourselves struggling with family/work life balance, relational issues, financial challenges, or may have unresolved hurt from our past. Do you feel stressed and overwhelmed with these or similar problems? While we can't change the past or predict the future, we can chart a new course and begin to feel better.

Are you carrying the weight of grief, depression, or trauma? Do you feel as if you have to put on a mask just to get through the day? You continue to juggle the roles of being a parent, spouse, employee, and everything in between; which leaves you feeling stretched thin and emotionally drained. You often feel as if you need a release or a lifeline to maintain a peace of mind. If any of this applies to you, “guess what,” it’s okay to not be okay.

Do You Feel Stuck, Disconnected, or Unable to Move Forward? Maybe you're carrying the weight of past experiences, feeling emotionally numb, or struggling to feel present in your own life. Perhaps you’re in a relationship where the same arguments keep happening, and no matter how much you try, you and your partner can’t seem to get on the same page. You might even be working through the pain of infidelity, trying to decide whether your relationship can heal or if it’s time to let go. When you’ve been through trauma, it can feel like your emotions are locked away, leaving you feeling stuck, detached, or unable to feel much at all.

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.
