Christian Counselling Clarington, ON. Find a Christian Therapist Near You.

For followers of the Christian faith, meeting with a Christain counsellor can be quite helpful and affirming. Through a shared understanding of Christian principles, teaching and beliefs, situations and people can be assessed and solution identified that are grounded in Christian traditions such as faith, forgiveness and grace, family and parenting, suffering and recovery. Your faith and spiritual journey can also be enhanced as you strive to overcome life's challenges, push away from troubling thoughts, feelings and behaviours and grow into the person/couple/family God wants you to be. As a fellow Christian, I look forward to being a good servant to assist you with your life journey.

Our faith can be our most powerful asset to face life’s challenges and yet at times it can be difficult to remain steadfast through hardship. Christian therapy can provide a unique opportunity to explore your concerns through the lens of your belief in God and faith values. My approach to Christian therapy is to provide a safe and supportive environment where we can explore your beliefs and how they can support you through life’s challenges. Reach out today to learn more about my approach and your journey to healing.

My approach to counselling is attachment based and trauma informed. I have extensive training in emotionally focused therapy, the gold standard in couple's therapy, which I apply in my work with couples, families, and individuals. Emotionally focused therapy closely parallels the Christian faith in how it understands human personhood and connection. I am trained through a biblical lens and comfortable including faith in the work we will do. During our sessions I take an engaged and active role in the process, focused on helping you to identify the areas where you may be stuck and working with you to make changes aligned with your goals and faith.

I provide psychotherapy, counselling, and mental health services that are grounded in my academic and experiential training. However, the foundation of my work is grounded in my faith. I firmly believe in a grand power/God that helps human beings to work for the healthy betterment of theirselves and of others. The main source of energy that drives us towards this betterment is love, compassion, and understanding. In faith based counselling and psychotherapy, I will help you to explore your own faith and spirituality and use these in supporting the resolution of resentful feelings, trauma, and other harmful experiences.

With my background of 30 years of Christian counselling to those who seek it, I draw on wisdom and truth from the scriptures to create contemporary perspectives on my client's present circumstances. God-honouring principles do create positive change for individuals willing to apply them. I have developed an approach I call "Pneumatherapy", (the therapy of the Holy Spirit), which helps the client to attentively and prayerfully listen to the Holy Spirit for insight and direction. We have many testimonials of successful outcomes of this therapy.

For many Christians it can be beneficial to their success in therapy to have a therapist that holds an understanding and respect for their religious and spiritual beliefs. While I do not offer Christian counseling services, at our clinic Psychotherapy Collective, one of our therapists Sarah works with Christian clients to combine evidence based psychotherapeutic techniques with piety, humility, forgiveness, faith development, spiritual development, and community.
