I am a Christian and if you are looking for Christian counseling, I counsel from both grace and truth using scripture and prayer as you are comfortable.
Are you a woman who constantly gives but has difficulty caring for yourself? Do you find yourself in relationships that lack boundaries? Do you always defer to others preferences and ignore your own wants and needs? Does it feel like you have lost your sense of self? If so, you are making the right choice considering counseling. I would love to support you as you find yourself again (or maybe for the first time). I am currently accepting new clients and have availability only on Friday evenings

As a Christian, I can offer a faith perspective for those interested as well.
Do you feel 'stuck' in life's transitions? Have you disqualified yourself due to life experiences? Interpersonal relationships, empty nest, work changes, and other issues bring things to the surface we didn't expect to experience. We may not like ourselves. It doesn't have to stay that way! Maybe the work world has exposed areas of interpersonal growth needed to advance in your field, or you're ready to finally chase your dream. It's never too late to discover a new skill, career, identity, purpose, and direction. You have an opportunity within your current challenges to use it as as springboard to see your dreams become reality.

I have adopted a motto of "I change lives, one person at a time." I graduated from Ohio University-Athens in 2003 with a Master of Education in Community and Agency Counseling. I have worked with about three different agencies developing a personal style of therapy. I find it effective to build rapport with clients in order to help them achieve goals, objectives, and interventions to improve their mental health. On a personal note, I have been married for almost 50 years. During that time I have worked in the business world and the most important part of my life is that I have been the Founding Pastor of our church.

Guided by the wisdom of Jung's words, "There can be no transforming of darkness into light, without emotion," I specialize in unraveling the intricate threads of emotional intelligence. Grounded in a profound understanding of belief systems, my training delves into the core, where past ideologies shape your present reality. Embracing emotional intelligence is not just a skill; it's a transformative state-of-mind that shapes thoughts and heightens emotional awareness. I advocate not for change but for understanding and acceptance.

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.
