Christian Therapists in Houston, TX
As a licensed professional and Christian counselor, I can help you find specific tools and strengths to choose a new path.
If you're here, I imagine you're a rockstar by all observable accounts. On the outside, you seem to be "thriving," but on the inside you're overwhelmed, burned out, and emotionally exhausted. You’ve tried all the "right" things: working more hours, eating fewer calories, doing more “self care”... but you still hear that voice in your head: "I'm not good enough." The good news is, you're not alone, and professional counseling can help you. In our work together, you'll renew your sense of hope, and finally learn to apply your grit, creativity, and natural compassion to how you see yourself.

I am a Christian, Bible-based therapist dedicated to helping individuals from all walks of life navigate the intersection of mental health and spirituality.
Is your soul tired? Vacations starting to not feel like enough to rejuvenate you? I’ve been where you are and thought a week away, a good brunch, mindlessly scrolling or binge watching a good show was all I needed to get back to feeling like myself. Instead, I was using those avenues to mask or ever overcompensate for what I was really feeling: unfulfilled, under appreciated, overwhelmed and just overall unsatisfied with my life. Does this sound like you? Let’s talk so we can figure out when and why all of this started and set you on a trajectory that re-motivates your passion and vigor for life.

For 24 years I helped people as a Christian pastor face life’s challenges.
Life can present many challenges. Communication challenges disrupt relationships. Grief, loss, anxiety and depression come into our lives without warning. I understand that while challenges are universal, every person seeking help has their own unique story to tell. I look forward to meeting you and helping you reach your therapy goals.

I can seamlessly incorporate a Christian perspective if that's your preference.
When the unthinkable happens and anxiety tries to pull you down, I’m here to help you regain your footing, redirect your path and rediscover who you truly are. I can attest that time doesn't heal all wounds; rather, it’s the power within you that does. Time only conceals trauma, which may later resurface as negative thoughts, fear and emotional distress. Using neurobiological techniques such as brain-spotting, I guide you in identifying unresolved wounds and understanding their connections to your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. This insight is crucial for processing trauma, reducing triggers and fostering healthier behaviors.

We all face daily, weekly, or lifetime struggles that we sometimes just need to talk to someone about.

I approach counseling with a person-centered style and a Christian-centered perspective, as deemed by the client.
Do you find yourself not living up to the expectations of others, no matter how hard you try? You’re someone who is riddled with anxiety but still finds yourself frozen, feeling fearful of the future and stagnant with your existence in the present. One can struggle with how to show up with oneself or others. But you’re ready to make a change. You're ready to challenge your internal belief system. You’re ready to grow exponentially within your capacity of self. Most of all, rely on your validation of self-worth. I want to help you get there.

I want to help you achieve whatever life challenges you are dealing with while enjoying the process of experiencing significant changes. So many people just want someone to Listen to them. I promise…I will Listen. Calling a Therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will seize the moment (I also teach mindfulness breathing) to call for your free 15 min consultation. Life is short; so don’t waste your energy with toxic relationships, anxiety, inability to understand why things are happening to you and still unable to find healing, purpose and meaning of your current situation and all the other areas of your life.

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.
