The Clinical Christian Counseling Process

Beginning counseling can feel like a big step. To help you feel informed and confident, I’ve outlined the Clinical Christian Counseling process here. I invite you to click and read through the dropdown sections to understand what to expect at each stage of working together.

Please note: I have outlined these steps in expanded detail for the purpose of clarity. However, the overall process is often completed quickly when our communication and responses to one another are timely.

  • Your journey begins by reaching out through the contact form.
    There, you will provide your basic contact information along with a brief description of why you are seeking counseling at this time.

    I will respond by sending a Consultation Request Form for you to complete and return. This allows me to better understand your needs before we speak.

  • I will reach out to schedule a consultation — either by phone or in person.

    The purpose of this consultation is to:

    ·       Briefly discuss counseling goals

    ·       Determine whether Clinical Christian Counseling is the right fit for your needs

    ·       Answer any questions you may have about the process

    This step ensures that your needs align with the services I provide in Clinical Christian Counseling.

  • If we both determine that we are a good fit for counseling, I will then send you the following documents:

    ·       Intake Form

    ·       Informed Consent Form

    At this stage, I will also ask you to complete a Temperament Analysis, which carries a one-time fee of $40. This assessment serves as a foundational component for Temperament Therapy and Creation Therapy and helps us better understand your inborn design, emotional tendencies, strengths, and growth areas as we move forward in counseling.

    We will also:

    ·       Review session payment expectations. Payment is required prior to each session.

    ·       Schedule your first official counseling session

    Forms must be completed and returned before your first session.

  • Your first session is an important foundation-setting time. During this session, we will:

    ·       Begin to identify patterns, concerns, and contributing factors

    Clinical Christian Counseling integrates clinically informed structure with a Christian worldview. While faith and encouragement are part of the process, our work will also involve examining thought patterns, emotional responses, relational dynamics, and behavioral cycles in a thoughtful and strategic way.

    The first session sets the direction for our work together.  You can expect a safe, confidential, and purposeful environment where we begin working toward meaningful change.
