You give of yourself to serve others, and now it’s your turn to receive support. As a helping professional—whether you are a first responder, military member, healthcare provider, or educator—you know the exhaustion that comes from high-stakes work. You might find it difficult to "turn off" the hyper-vigilance when you get home, or perhaps you feel a growing sense of burnout and compassion fatigue that is affecting your relationships. You want to feel like yourself again, to find a sense of balance between your professional duty and your role at home, and to develop the mental preparedness to handle whatever the next shift brings.

As a therapist, my goal is to help families, couples, and individuals improve their personal relationships. This is achieved through gaining an understanding of others' emotions and why they react the way they do to various situations. Then, being willing to make the changes needed to be able to connect and trust their partner or family member. When the storms arrive, each will then know how to comfort themselves, and others; this happens synergistically. Synergism means that each person complements the other and enhances their performance; together, you are energized through the art of working in harmony. Come give it a try!

Do you feel like you have to earn your worth? What if I told you, it is already yours.
But I know it doesn’t always feel that way.
A lot of the clients I work with have spent years questioning themselves. Feeling like they had to be useful, agreeable, or “put together” to be enough. That kind of pressure can be exhausting. It leaves you feeling disconnected from who you are and unsure how to get back to something that feels real and authentic.

You hold it together well — maybe too well. On the outside things look fine, but privately you're exhausted, reactive in ways that confuse you, and carrying something you can't quite name.

Therapy can help name experience, holding the moving pieces that keep bumping up against the edges of your consciousness, organizing them, fitting them back together in a way that makes sense and returning them to you with skills to manage them. Sometimes though, the articulate and self aware client will spend hours explaining things they already understand, while still feeling unseen and disconnected, like their inner world is still being missed, knowing there is hurt and dissonance but needing someone to help them connect to it. My holistic mind, heart and body approach can bring you to a place of both naming and experiencing.

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.
