A Comprehensive, Evidence-Based Approach to Counseling

At Stonegate Counseling Associates, we believe in a holistic, client-centered approach to mental health. Our practice is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques with deep respect for each individual’s personal values, beliefs, and life experiences. This means our therapists are skilled in integrating Biblical values and Christian beliefs into counseling when desired, while also respecting and effectively supporting clients from diverse backgrounds and belief systems.

How We Are Different

• Professional Training & Credentials – Our licensed therapists have extensive training in psychology, mental health, and evidence-based interventions, ensuring you receive care grounded in decades of science and research. While unlicensed counselors can be helpful for certain issues, you can trust the rigorous state licensure process our therapists have passed through.
• More Comprehensive Care - Because of our background and experience, our team addresses well-being from many angles, including physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual health. This ensures a more complete and well-rounded approach to care rather than ignoring spiritual health altogether OR narrowly focusing on spiritual and theological issues.
• Personalized, Not Prescriptive – Rather than applying a single framework to all concerns, we recognize that healing and wholeness is unique to each person. Our training in many kinds of therapy models allow us meet you exactly where you are, helping you navigate challenges with techniques that work for you.
• Therapeutic Approaches Proven to Help – We only utilize well-researched approaches to give you the best our field has to offer. Our approaches include but are not limited to:
  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) – Backed by decades of outcome-driven research, EFT helps individuals and couples create secure, healthy emotional bonds that are proven to last years beyond the end of therapy.
  • Gottman Method Couples Therapy – Perhaps the most extensively researched couples therapy framework, the Gottman Method strengthens relationships through practical and communication-based interventions.
  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) – Widely considered the gold standard for trauma and PTSD treatment, EMDR can also help with many mental, relational, or spiritual patterns in which you feel stuck.
  • Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Theory, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and more!
• Inclusive, Balanced, & Non-Denominational – Because we rely on evidence-based counseling theories and interventions, our approach can serve all kinds of people from all kinds of backgrounds, whether faith-based or not. We also understand the importance of faith and spirituality for many of our clients. It's important for us, too! If desired, we will incorporate discussions of God and spirituality into therapy in a way that is supportive and client-led rather than directive or overbearing.

At Stonegate Counseling Associates, our priority is comprehensive care for your complete wellbeing: physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual. Check out our therapists and directly contact the one that looks right for you!
