If you are Christian and would like to incorporate your faith into treatment, we can absolutely do this. If you have had negative experiences with Christianity and would like to unpack that, I will hold a safe space and non-judgment for you to process Church hurt. Therapy isn't about a therapist imparting their values on their clients. It is quite the opposite. It is about clients sharing their values with us and we guide you based on those values.

I truly believe that everyone that I talk to has been brought to me by God and He has a purpose for them to be with me. All of my therapy is informed by scripture. I integrate Christian principles into all of my interventions and recommendations.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
God can anchor us in every storm—yet even strong believers can find themselves overwhelmed by anxiety, conflict, or pain that prayer alone hasn’t resolved. You might be wondering why peace feels distant, why old patterns keep resurfacing, or why you can’t seem to hear Jesus clearly in the middle of the noise.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
At Rising Calm Center, we believe healing is both spiritual and practical. Our Christian counselors blend the wisdom of Scripture with proven therapeutic approaches—CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT, EFT, Gottman, narrative therapy and trauma-informed care—to help you experience renewal in mind, body, and spirit.
Together, we address the root of stress, fear, and relationship pain—not by suppressing emotion, but by inviting Christ into it. We’ll help you:
• Rebuild intimacy with God and others
• Overcome anxiety, shame, and self-doubt
• Heal wounds that block peace and purpose
• Strengthen identity and resilience through faith
Each session is a space for truth, grace, and transformation. You’ll learn how to calm your nervous system, renew your thoughts, and walk in the peace Jesus promised—no longer striving for worth, but living from it.
If you’ve been searching for Christian counseling that goes deeper than advice or quick fixes, Rising Calm Center offers a path to lasting wholeness—grounded in Christ, guided by wisdom, and strengthened by love.

NAVIGATING FAITH: FAITH CRISES AND FAITH AS A THERAPEUTIC RESOURCE
We understand that faith can be an important part of our clients' lives - as a factor in their well-being and also their distress. We provide a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their faith and how it relates to their mental health and well-being. We believe that the integration of faith and therapy can be a powerful tool for healing and growth, and we are committed to supporting our clients in this journey.
When it comes to faith crises, we understand that it can be a stressful, confusing, unmooring, and disconnecting time. We ensure a safe and supportive environment for you to explore your doubts, questions, feelings toward, and all aspects of your faith so that you can reach a place of inner integrity about how, if at all, to hold and express your faith.
