Christian Therapists in Lubbock County, TX
Healing begins where you feel safe.
Trauma can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or like you’re always “on,” even when you’re exhausted. Whether it came from loss, betrayal, abuse, or unsafe relationships, you deserve a space where you can finally breathe.
My goal is to offer therapy that feels safe, supportive, real, and even a little lighter at times because healing doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. The kind of space where you can show up as you are: strong, guarded, hopeful, messy…all of it!
As a trauma survivor, I bring deep compassion and lived understanding into our work. You don’t have to carry this alone.

We all have experiences and events in our lives that are sometimes difficult to deal with on our own. It is important to find a therapist that you can develop a good therapeutic relationship with. This working relationship includes openness, honesty and a willingness by the client in moving toward help and resolution of their concerns or issues.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step? You don’t have to navigate this alone. Many people I work with face anxiety, depression, or life changes, leaving them disconnected from themselves or their purpose. It’s normal to feel drained or frustrated by these emotions. I believe in the power of understanding and connection. Together, we’ll create a safe, judgment-free space to explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. I’m here to help you reclaim clarity, healing, and a renewed sense of direction!

My perspective and approach is Christian but I work very well with clients who are not religious or who are exploring their relationship with God.
Restoration Therapy looks at the messages we send ourselves about our love worthiness and safety and challenges them with the truth. We uncover past hurts and seek healing through understanding and reframing.

I believe that counseling is first and foremost a relationship. As any good relationship is based on trust, so effective counseling is also based on trust. Trust develops when people feel accepted and supported no matter what their circumstances, and when they know the other has their best interests at heart. Honest communication is essential to the therapeutic relationship. For clients this means not withholding information that is difficult to discuss. For the counselor, this means giving honest feedback.

Thank you for considering me as a part of your journey towards healing. I understand choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision. Often times, unresolved mental health issues lead to isolation. You are not alone. Individuals often experience unpleasant symptoms associated with trauma or adverse life events that often lead to mental illness. Often times, depression, anxiety, and other trauma-related symptoms are often linked in some way to traumatic life events, generational trauma, or hereditary factors. I offer the expertise to help you connect with your inner and external strengths to foster healing, resilience, and hope.

I meet with individuals using a variety of approaches. Work with clients is determined by the problem brought to the session, beginning where you find yourself-cognitively, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I generally work with a client's life story, to look for origins of beliefs and problems, and to find ways to reframe the story so that it is not so limiting. I am experienced in the areas of trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, anger management, conflict resolution, addiction, career counseling and various other issues.

Life has a way of surprising us—sometimes in beautiful ways, and sometimes in ways that leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of our next step. If you’re feeling stuck, exhausted, or caught in a season that doesn’t feel like “you,” please know this: it does not have to feel this way. YOU hold the power and have a choice. Your joy, your clarity, and your sense of self are not lost—they’re waiting to have space to shine again.

Loss is an all too real part of life. Whether experiencing loss due to death, divorce, a move, or even the reality that life is not what you thought it would be, loss can leave you feeling hopeless and alone. Coming from a place of faith and love, I strive to make authentic connections with those in pain. I am able to provide tools and a safe environment to manage the anxiety and depression that often arise. Ultimately, I work to build trust so that you feel safe to be heard and are not alone as you walk on your life 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.
