Christian Therapists in Madisonville, TX
My trauma informed therapy style integrates beliefs about people and issues derived from my Christian faith as well as empowering principles from individual psychology.
I see stress and isolation invading all our nervous systems by disrupting our sleep patterns, straining relationships, and compromising our overall sense of wellbeing. My hope for my clients experiencing these or other issues are that they leave therapy ultimately feeling more connected—to themselves, God, significant others, family, and community.

And as a Licensed Minister and hopelessly sinful Christian, I personally know the grace and patience we each need as we struggle to find, understand, and accept true peace.
Relationships are often the most difficult part of our lives. While they may provide companionship and comfort, they can also be a source of conflict and pain. Regardless of who we are or from where we came, we will each face life events that challenge our sense of self. Our response to each event - a crossroad - can shape the remainder of our journey. I am honored to walk with you as you consider your paths and take those crucial steps.

I am a counselor that is a Christian, and can assist those clients that use faith as a basis for handling life's obstacles.
My education, experience and necessary counseling skills assist my current and future clients to deal with individual obstacles such as past or present abuse(in many forms), domestic violence, trauma, substance use disorders, relationship issues, co-dependency, parenting skills, anger management and criminal justice issues. I consider myself a "facilitator" of change.

When we get the message growing up that we're "not good enough" - that we're "not worthy enough" - we spend the rest of our lives trying to prove our worth to others. Some of us self-soothe through developing addictions, and some of us cope by feeling the need to have to clean up other people's messes - even when it puts our own mental health at risk. We do this by feeling responsible for other people's problems, by avoiding conflict, and by overcompensating and taking on way more than we should.

The unique connection everyone has is that we all have a specific way we process. Even further, how you were raised directly connects to how you filter through your life experiences. If you have had any kind of trauma from your childhood then your world view might feel stressful, rigid or you may feel like you are constantly on guard. Even if you did not have any childhood trauma and you still feel those ways, just know that you do not have to go through it alone.

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.
