Christian Therapists in Spokane, WA
For those who welcome it, I enjoy discussing how spirituality and one's Christian faith relate with mental health.
Everyone needs support in sorting through their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors at various points in their lives. It takes time to understand how our formative years and our present circumstances have shaped our view of ourselves as well as our view of others and the world at large. I hope to provide an empathic space where you can explore your inner world, and in doing so discover new insights that will help you be kinder to yourself in the midst of life’s difficulties. In couple & family therapy, I will help you to identify which patterns are causing disconnection and then help you form a secure attachment to your loved ones.

Counseling is a sacred experience in which a client and therapist venture into hidden pains, untold stories, and the dark parts of life's journey together. As a Christian, I believe that the healing process cannot happen apart from the Holy Spirit, the Great Counselor. But as a trained, Clinical Mental Health Counselor, I know that faith communities, Christian family members, and other close Christian relationships often fail to authentically meet us in the depths of our despair and sorrow. With me as your counselor, I hope you will find a spaciousness to be your full imperfect self without fear of judgement or shame.

Christian counseling and spirituality orientation is available.
New information, skills, and understandings will move you forward to goals you don't even know as possibilities. You have certain skills and understandings that have brought you to where you are now. A lot of folks believe that more willpower will make the difference and that is what is needed. But, if willpower hasn’t worked out for you up to this point, maybe new information, abilities, and insights are available. Learning new ways of coping is a short-term solution to “life is difficult". My experience, both personally and professionally, is that when we find new sources of strength, we become empowered in significant ways.

I grew up in the Christian faith and enjoy working with people who also value spirituality.
We all seek out for help for different reasons. For many of us, we reach out becuase of events that happen in life that steer us away from our values. I view my job as a therapist as being a helper to find your core values again. My therapy modalities focus on couples, individual work, and families. Each of these are something that I put into practice daily in the therapy room. Taking the step to seek treatment is not easy however I feel very honored to be apart of that journey. If you decide to schedule an appointment I will provide a safe supportive place to grow and find your deepest values.

Growing up Hmong-American (second generation), gay, and Christian (nondenominational, pastor’s kid), I can appreciate the intersectional experience of navigating multiple and competing identities.
I especially enjoy working with those interested in exploring: socialized masculinity and sexuality (e.g. regulating sexual behaviors / OCSB-informed, desire discrepancy, body image, values and beliefs...), the specific interaction of faith/spirituality and sexuality (e.g. shame, trauma...), intersectional identity work (i.e. our complex and interacting layers as people), surviving dating, navigating life transitions, and living with anxiety (e.g. social, highly sensitive person...) and depression.

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.
