For clients who desire it, we offer a two-fold approach to care that supports both your mental and emotional healthand your spiritual well-being.
With your permission and based on what feels meaningful to you, we can thoughtfully incorporate a biblical worldview and Christian faith into the therapy process. This may include exploring Scripture, faith, prayer, or other Christian practices alongside trusted, evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, DBT-informed strategies, and trauma-focused therapy.
Your faith is never assumed or imposed. Instead, it can become a meaningful part of therapy when you want it to be, allowing you to receive care that honors your beliefs while also supporting your emotional health, healing, and personal growth.
Marrying Psychology and Faith
What integration can look like (tailored to you):
- Prayer: incorporated only if you request it.
- Scripture engagement: pairing relevant passages with cognitive restructuring (e.g., journaling, lament/psalms for grief, etc.).
- Biblical affirmations: Biblically grounded, truth-based statements to counter unhelpful thoughts.
- Religious coping strategies: Prayers, Sabbath/rest rhythms, gratitude practices, etc.
- Values-aligned action: clarifying faith-informed values (ACT) and translating them into small, measurable steps between sessions.
- Care coordination (with your written permission): optional collaboration with spiritual leaders for consistent support.
What does this look like in therapy? Together, we’ll identify goals and create a care plan that fits your needs.
We’ll check in regularly so we can adjust the plan when needed and make sure therapy continues to be helpful.
Christian integration is completely optional and guided by you. We also recognize that faith can look different from person to person, so we’re respectful of denominational differences, different ways of expressing faith, and experiences of spiritual hurt or religious trauma.
Our goal is to provide compassionate, thoughtful care that supports you as a whole person—emotionally, mentally, and, when you desire it, spiritually.
