Within Therapy
Spiritually integrated psychotherapy.
For clients who want spirituality to be part of the therapeutic conversation, I offer this as an option within therapy. Not as a separate service, and not as a default.
My caseload is currently full, and I am not accepting new therapy clients at this time. I expect to have openings again soon. See current availability for the latest status.
Spiritually integrated psychotherapy is available as part of therapy for clients located in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.
I am trained in ACPE Spiritually Integrated Psychotherapy, a clinical approach developed for working competently with spiritual and religious material in therapy. It is grounded, clinically informed, and respectful of where each person actually stands.
In practice, this means I can hold spiritual content seriously when it shows up: beliefs, doubts, religious histories, mystical or unusual experiences, questions of meaning. Faith, doubt, grief, and meaning can be explored without pressure toward any particular framework.
Whether spirituality has any place in our work is your decision, not mine; it is welcomed when it matters to you, and it does not become the therapist's agenda.
For clients who prefer therapy without this dimension, the work proceeds without it. Nothing is assumed.
