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.

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist providing individual psychotherapy for adults (18+) with a wide variety of difficulties and concerns. A personalized therapy approach is customized together for your specific needs, wishes, and values. My patients often find it helpful when we integrate trauma-informed approaches with empathic psychoanalytic/psychodynamic ways of understanding their feelings, experiences, and thoughts. Deeper insight into one's relational patterns and how the past influences the present tends to grow clients beyond areas in their lives where they feel stuck or behind so they can move towards their goals.

Does life feel like a constant state of crisis and chaos? Are you constantly feeling overwhelmed, alone, anxious, or distracted? Perhaps you’ve been labeled as lazy, selfish, forgetful, or irresponsible, or that you are not putting enough effort or energy into doing something. But behind the scenes, you are trying to keep it all together, you want to do well and it just isn’t working. There is so much guilt and shame that shows up. It's a heavy burden to carry. You may find yourself questioning why even simple tasks like laundry, doing the dishes, or simple conversations seem so challenging.

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.
