    As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 30 years, I have had the honor of working with individuals, families, and couples through difficult times as well as good times. When working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, military/veteran trauma, life transition, infidelity, grief and loss, I have witnessed the assurance that through God, all things are possible. Most of us understand that therapy and growth require work, but it doesn’t have to be painful – in fact, at times the experience and growth can be very joyful as we depend on the Lord for strength and direction.

Family

Teens & Children

It can also help them with any mental health issues that they may be experiencing, such as behavioral or family issues, loss, or even struggles with addiction.

It can be difficult to maintain your faith in God when you are concerned that your child may be suffering from mental health issues that need counseling. At Irvine Christian Counseling, professional child and family counselors can help both parents and children find health and hope in any situation. We provide tools and techniques to help you and your children thrive and overcome.

Do you feel like something in life is holding you back? In our society, we have been blessed with many rights and freedoms. While the liberty we enjoy is a good thing, it’s easy to get bogged down by questions of who we are, who we want to be, and what we want out of life. Add to that difficulties such as trauma, grief, and relationship issues, and you can easily find yourself stuck in patterns of negativity, poor behavior choices, and toxic relationships.

If you struggle with these things, then individual Christian counseling might be for you. In troubled times like these, having someone to talk to can be a real help as you try to figure out the way forward. At Irvine Christian Counseling, we can help you face your trials so that you don’t have to go it alone.
