I offer direction with women's issues, self-esteem, grief, helping pastors and leaders in ministry recover from adultery pain and/or moral failure, heterosexual marriage, premarital issues and preparation, family conflicts, life coaching, divorce, deliverance ministry (demonization), family conflict, coping skills, life transitions, etc.
Se habla español. Struggling individuals need to know that someone cares, that a new day will come, and that there are principles available to help them recover and rebuild. As a Christian Counselor (Pastoral) and Life Coach, I utilize a biblical foundation to guide you. Whether you're a pastor who needs counseling for yourself, the whole family, a single mother, a non-churchgoer, a widowed father, a divorcee, etc. there is hope! Don't bear life’s difficulties alone, even if you have had a moral, spiritual, or emotional collapse. Results vary, but most of my clients see great change with 1-3 sessions when they're ready for change!

My primary concerns are: "Where do you want to go? What do you want your relationship to look like? How do you want your life to be? What skills do you want to build?" I work collaboratively with you to design specific goals and outcomes.
Greetings! I am Dr. Stokes, and over the past 25+ years I have worked with clients seeking help with their relationships. I work with individuals and couples. Using a Structural Family Therapy approach, I address the six components of intimacy and help couples build connections across all six. I also incorporate Attachment Theory to address family-of-origin wounds that hinder intimacy. Lastly, because finances are one of the main causes of stress, I have recently added Financial Therapy & Financial Coaching to my skill set. I believe in providing "how to" skills so you feel more confident to handle whatever life throws at you.

While some marital issues can come as a surprise, such as with the discovery of infidelity or sexual addiction, relationships often don’t fail overnight. Instead it’s a slow fade. Divorce rates tell the story of marriages in slow decline with too little help coming too late. Do you and your partner struggle to communicate effectively? Perhaps your conflicts have become destructive. Maybe you both live more as roommates than partners or even lovers. Are resentments growing as battlelines are drawn? Has one of you threatened divorce in the heat of an argument? Or have you been devastated by infidelity or sexual addiction?

Life Coaching Therapists

What can I expect from life coaching?

Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.

Can a life coach help treat anxiety?

Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.

Can life coaching be done online?

Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.

How long does life coaching last?

Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
