Riddle, is deeply committed to delivering top-notch care to her clients, employing a range of therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Christian Counseling, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Reality Therapy.
I absolutely love trees! (made you look, lol). Seriously though, I do love trees & their similarities to us. They provide beauty, shade, healing, & support, all while remaining rooted. I view therapy as a branch of support, much like the sturdy limbs of a tree.

For the past 25 years, I've specialized in working with children, adolescents & their families from diverse populations. It takes courage to seek support & strength to follow through.

Are you overwhelmed trying to keep up with life’s demands?
You might feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, sadness, or self-doubt—comparing yourself to others, feeling behind, or just emotionally worn out. You’re not alone. Maybe trauma still affects your mind, body, and relationships. Maybe you rely on substances or habits that once helped but now hold you back. Change is hard—especially when old coping patterns no longer serve you.

There's alot of therapists to scroll through so maybe this helps: 1) I've done this for over a decade 2) I'm willing to work with anyone, but I'm not woke 3) I became a born again Christian two years ago, but only integrate it into therapy if desired 4) Most clients who work with me are seeking freedom, improved relationships, and alleviation from anxiety, depression or trauma etc.
Clients are often tired of trying to constantly become "more" and combating feeling like they're not enough or expected life to be something it isn't. They tend to feel lost, trapped or alone, unable to control everything, want relief, direction, clarity, meaning, and self-understanding.

It is easy to get swept up into what the world defines a woman should be. This world can pollute the mind into believing that extreme measures need to be taken in order to fulfill the status quo. It is exhausting molding oneself into a mold that was never meant to be. Each woman has been created for a unique purpose, and if the purpose gets diluted with the expectations of this world, the true beauty and intellect of the woman is hidden and that is a travesty. When a women sees her value in God's eyes, she truly becomes alive, as she understands she was created for a purpose, and is not a mere afterthought.

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.
