My experience of 25 years in education, 8 years in counseling, and 15 years in the ministry has equipped me as a Christian counselor and professional counselor to foster hope and empower individuals, couples, and families to take ownership of their lives and relationships.
I believe every day offers a new beginning. Whenever a client decides to seek support through life's challenges, it is the right time. Therefore, you are "right on time" for making the changes you need for a healthier, more productive life. Do you or a loved one need help to make a decision, move forward in life, or replace negative behaviors with positive ones? I meet clients where they are and work collaboratively with them to identify goals, determine solutions to problems, improve communication skills, enhance coping skills, and promote behavior changes that will lead to an optimally healthy life.

Do you find that despite your motivation for achievement, you feel exhausted, unfulfilled, and unable to live in and embrace the present? The craving for a balanced, peaceful and meaningful joyful life seems constantly unfulfilled; the harder you try, the further away your goal seems and the more short-lived your gains seem.

Do you feel alone, unheard, unseen? Do you find yourself feeling empty or unsettled? I want you to know that’s not how you have to live and you can feel full of life and with purpose and direction again. When we think of trauma we often think of this big, violent event that has taken place in someone’s life. But trauma doesn’t always present itself in that form and it doesn’t look the same for every single person. An event becomes traumatic based the degree of distress our body and mind responds to it. No matter the type of threat or event, if life feels like a big struggle, you're not alone. You can have peace and be fulfilled.

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.
