Christian Therapists in Layton, UT
Over two decades ago, my life changed when my children and i found ourselves staying at a domestic violence shelter. The fear and uncertainty was overwhelming.
The journey to where I am today was not easy. I worked hard to heal generational trauma, break unhealthy cycles, and create a different future for my family. I earned my degrees with passion and purpose to help others heal from their own trauma and find hope for a better life.
I am grateful for every client, every lesson and every step on this journey.

You may be my ideal client if you’re navigating grief, loss, trauma, or life transitions and find yourself weighed down by doubt, shame, or a sense of disconnection from who you truly are. You might be carrying stories—often imposed by others—that no longer serve you. These false narratives can leave you feeling stuck, anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed by the demands of caregiving, illness, or the complexities of everyday life. Your goals may include finding peace, rediscovering your identity, or simply learning how to breathe again after life has knocked the wind out of you.

Exhausted from holding it all together while everything inside is falling apart? You’ve been surviving. But surviving isn’t the same as living. If you’ve been living in a fog, too tired to do anything other than necessary tasks, or walking on eggshells around different people and it has started to feel normal, you might be carrying more than you realize. Relationships can do that. Grief can do that. Trauma does that. You may not even recognize yourself anymore. That's not weakness, thats what prolonged stress does to a person.

You’re the strong one. The oldest daughter, the helper, the fixer — the glue that keeps everyone else okay. But somewhere along the way, you lost you. Now you’re exhausted, anxious, so burnt out trying to be ‘good enough’ for everyone. You want permission to rest, say no, and still believe you’re worthy. Maybe faith is part of your story — comforting but complicated sometimes. You’re not too much for me. You’re allowed to show up messy here. You don’t have to hold it all alone anymore.

Are you tired of “talking about it” but still not feeling better? You've tried therapy, read the books, or pushed yourself to “move on”—but your nervous system hasn’t. You suffer the effects of trauma: hypervigilance, emotional exhaustion, relationship struggles, or the constant undercurrent of shame. What will better mental health make possible?

My ideal clients are adults and adolescents (12+) dealing with anxiety, trauma, or PTSD who are ready to do something about it. They're often high-functioning on the outside but exhausted on the inside, stuck in patterns they can't seem to break on their own.
They come to me when talk therapy alone hasn't been enough, or when they want real results without years of weekly sessions.
Using ART, CBT, and DBT, I help clients process what's holding them back and build practical tools to move forward, often faster than they expected.

FAQ - About Christian Counselling
What can a Christian therapist help with?
Many Christian counselors incorporate faith-based principles into psychotherapy and draw guidance from biblical writings. This approach may be particularly helpful if you are experiencing concerns related to faith, prolonged grief, substance use, or questions about life’s purpose. Christian therapists may also offer marital, premarital, or family counseling. These can be helpful options if your concerns are more relational in nature, such as communication challenges in a marriage, conflict within a family, or adjustment following a major family transition, such as divorce or a move.
How does Christian faith shape the therapy experience?
Christian faith can shape the therapy experience by giving you a familiar framework for discussing meaning, purpose, forgiveness, relationships, and hope in sessions. For clients who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may draw on Christian values, prayer, or spiritual reflection alongside other therapeutic approaches. In addition, while training, qualifications, and experience are always important, research has shown that a strong alliance between you and your 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. Nevertheless, an ethical Christian therapist should be clear about how they incorporate faith and should respect the level of spiritual discussion that feels right for you.
Does Christian therapy work across different denominations?
Christian therapy can be helpful for people from various different Christian traditions, including Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, and Anglican backgrounds. Many Christian therapists are able to support clients across denominations by focusing on shared Christian values, such as faith, prayer, forgiveness, and hope. That said, denomination can matter for some clients. A person’s identified denomination may shape how they understand relationships and life roles. If these differences are important to you, it may be helpful to ask a therapist whether they have experience working with clients from your specific denomination or faith tradition.
Can a Christian therapist help with marriage and couples counseling?
Christian faith-based therapy can take many different forms, including marriage counseling and couples counseling. Some therapists may also offer Christian pre-marital counseling. In these settings, Christian therapists may work with couples on concerns such as communication, conflict, trust, intimacy, parenting, and major life transitions. A Christian therapist may also help couples explore how shared Christian beliefs shape the relationship. They may encourage you and your partner to practice skills learned in therapy in your everyday lives, including both faith-based practices and non-faith-based tools, such as prayer or communication skills.
Can a Christian therapist help with sensitive issues like sex, trauma, or addiction?
Licensed therapists with adequate training should be equipped to help with a number of sensitive issues, including sex, trauma, and addiction. For clients who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may help explore how your spiritual beliefs relate to your challenges, healing, and recovery. A competent and ethical Christian therapist should not judge, shame, or impose a particular belief when discussing these topics, and if you feel judged, it may be time to seek another therapist.
How can a Christian therapist support family therapy?
Christian family therapy can help families address conflict, communication challenges, parenting concerns, grief, or adjustment following a major life transition. A Christian therapist may support family members in understanding one another’s perspectives, improving communication, setting healthier boundaries, and rebuilding trust. For families who want faith included in therapy, a Christian therapist may also help explore how family values related to Christianity can support healing.
How might I inquire about a therapist's experience working with Christian clients?
If religion is important to you in therapy, it can be helpful to ask a prospective therapist whether they have experience working with Christian clients. In initial conversations with potential therapists, you might ask how they incorporate Christian values into therapy or how they approach certain topics that matter to you. As sessions begin, it can be helpful to notice how the therapist responds to your concerns. A strong therapeutic alliance does not necessarily require a therapist to share your religious background, but they should respond to your concerns with respect and cultural humility. If you feel dismissed, misunderstood, or find yourself having to explain your beliefs constantly, it may be worth considering another therapist.
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 and have identified as Christian. It shows therapists who indicate that they have extensive experience working with Christian clients, regardless of their own background or religious affiliation. However, not all therapists choose to disclose this information, and they may not appear in search results for this reason.
