As a licensed professional, Christian counselor, I can help you find specific tools and strengths to choose a new path, instead of relying on the same negative coping skills that make you feel desperate, ashamed, and unlovable.
If you're like many of my current clients, you're juggling life. On the outside, you seem to be "thriving," but on the inside you're overwhelmed, burned out, and burdened with your feelings. You’ve tried it all: working more hours, eating fewer calories, doing more “self care”... but you still hear that voice: "You’re not good enough." Trust me, you're not alone, and professional counseling can help. In our work together, you'll renew your sense of hope, deal with your burnout, and finally learn to apply your grit, creativity, and natural compassion to how you see yourself.

Life presents many circumstances that can be difficult for any person to navigate on their own. We aren’t born with the emotional regulation skills or coping skills needed to deal with the complexities of this fast-paced, high-pressure society. Some days we may be consumed with negative thoughts that hinder us from being who we want to be. Some days we are flooded with big emotions that are hard to control and seem to overpower us. Some days we experience worries that seem so big that it's hard for us to function.

3/6/24 - NOTE - the Change Healthcare outage is delaying appointments for those using insurance by 2 weeks. When experiencing difficult times we may feel afflicted, crushed, perplexed, forsaken, or even destroyed inside. Sometimes it’s hard to see the way through or what the next steps should be. The good news is you don’t have to walk these steps alone. Safely sharing with someone you can trust and who will listen without judgment helps to regain or maintain your footing. I consider it sacred and an honor to work with people during challenging times in their lives or offer a safe space for continued reflection and growth.

The pit in your stomach as you walk into the office. You meant to leave early, but you are running late, again. Hopefully the boss doesn’t notice. You have a to do list, that you left “somewhere around here”. At home, there is the bill pile next to the mail pile, but they disappear if you can’t see them. You have the best of intentions, but the missed appointments and missed deadlines are piling up. You tried one planner system, then another, but nothing ever seems to really change. The worst is this feeling that you are not living up to who you want to be… and it is hard to picture how to make this any better.

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.
