Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC
I incorporate Christian counseling by integrating psychological principles with the teachings and values of Christianity. Grounded in faith, I will create a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their concerns, utilizing prayer, scriptural wisdom, and theological insights as integral components of the therapeutic process. Christian counseling involves addressing mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of a person's life, recognizing the interconnectedness of these dimensions. I draw upon biblical guidance to provide perspective on issues such as forgiveness, purpose, and resilience. Integrating prayer and scripture into therapeutic interventions, I collaborate with clients to explore how their faith can be a source of strength, healing, and transformation. This approach aims to foster holistic well-being, encouraging individuals to navigate life's challenges in alignment with their Christian beliefs and values.
