Are you tired of having the same argument with your partner again and again? Are you having issues communicating your needs and wants in your relationship? Are you in need of an experienced licensed couples and marriage therapist? I am most passionate about working with engaged or newly married couples who are adjusting to life as two individuals become a new couple and family system. I reference Gottman couples theory in sessions. I am a SYMBIS certified pre-marital counselor. As an experienced Christian counselor who helps clients bridge faith in therapy sessions, I believe in helping couples strengthen the marriage relationship.

While I practice the "art" of therapeutic integration, the foundational therapies I practice are emotionally focused, cognitive- behavioral, and Christian counseling.
For many people coming for counseling is a last resort in a series attempts to find relief from overwhelming challenges or for emotional and psychological healing. Most feel they have lost a sense of hope, meaning or purpose. If that's where you find yourself today, let me encourage you that hope is possible again! I believe all recovery and healing must take place holistically; body, mind and spirit. As a compassionate faith-based therapist, my focus is on creating a genuine collaborative relationship. I am dedicated to providing a respectful, non-judgmental environment in order to facilitate positive life change.

Caring for ourselves is similar to tending a garden. It should be looked after, nurtured, and maintained. Sometimes weeds creep in and prevent plants from growing; withering away what was once a beautiful garden. The same is true for the garden of our souls. As your counselor, I will provide a safe and supportive environment for you to heal and grow into the person you were created to be. I would be honored to walk alongside you to help you recover and improve your emotional and mental well-being.

Does it feel like you are not on the same page with your significant other lately? Is your child or teen's emotional state or behaviors worrying you? Our home life is so important to our well-being. When our relationships don't feel in sync, it can create emotional turmoil. It is a tough feeling when coming home does not feel like a respite from the daily stressors of life. I believe our emotional well-being and relationships are an integral part of our lives, and as such, they need the proper attention, just like going to the doctor for physical ailments.

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.
