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.

Faith can be a meaningful source of strength and healing, especially during difficult seasons. For clients who value this,I offer therapy that thoughtfully integrates psychological insight with Christian faith.
I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can explore both your emotional experiences and your faith in a way that feels natural and authentic to you. Together, we’ll work toward greater clarity and solutions guided by both clinical insights and your faith.

Psychologist, PsyD
Putting God first is the most important thing. Working with me, people are free to talk about their beliefs, how those beliefs help them make decisions, and how their faith has helped them cope through the toughest times. I look forward to working with clients to see how God keeps showing up in their lives and how they can lean on this for growth!

You feel a confusing, disorienting gap between how you feel and how you believe you "should" feel as a Christian. Where's the peace and joy you've been promised as a believer? You do all the right things - go to church, pray, study the Bible, serve others as best you can. But you still feel depressed. Or anxious. Or angry. Or your relationships cause you so much pain. You say to yourself, "this isn't how I'm supposed to feel, is it?" and then the shame creeps in..."what's wrong with me?"
What if what you are experiencing is not a failure of your faith? What if instead it is an invitation to go deeper? What if you're not broken, but instead carrying more than any one person was made to hold? What if all those feelings are part of a full and human life that God is inviting you to bring to him?
My goal is not to teach you how to feel about God. Instead, I'll help you see that God's care for you runs even deeper than you ever imagined. I don't have all the answers, but I'll give space for the real you to come out of hiding so that God can do the real healing. Reach out to me today and schedule a free consultation to see if I'm the right person to walk alongside you in this journey.
