LDS Therapist In McKinney, Allen, Frisco, Dallas Texas
If you are not from Utah it can be difficult to find a counselor or therapist your area. Gaining a unique perspective and someone who shares your same values can be very important. Here are some ways that an LDS therapist can help you:
Pornography Addiction: Sometimes seen a therapist who is not LDS for pornography addiction can be difficult. They may not share the same value as you and can give you suggestions that go against your faith. Treatment for a pornography addiction can be hard to do. Having somebody on your side shares your same values can really make a difference. Not only am I going to help you stop your addiction but I look at your physical self, emotional self, social self, and spiritual. Something we have learned our entire lives is that we need to trust in God. By trusting in God this means that we trust in our support systems or even therapist. I not only want to help your spiritual self but once you to live the best self you can live. I want to be able to change your behaviors and remove some habits from your life.
Marriage and Couples: Many individuals who are LDS are seeking for a therapist to share their same values. A therapist who is not Mormon can give you direction on building your marriage while removing some of your value system. For instance, some therapists might ask you to start watching pornography together. The LDS therapist knows better, he or she knows that this is not part of your value system. Instead understanding that families are forever and the covenants that most make, I want to help you gain a better understanding of each other in your roles within the marriage. Gaining an LDS perspective to help you through your eternal marriage can be crucial.
Teens and Youth: The teens and youth in the LDS church can sometimes struggle with their own faith, morals, and values. The world shows these individuals that their values do not matter. Do not take your child to any therapist. You want somebody that shares your same value system. Help your child feel comfortable and to guide them towards where they want to be.
OCD and Scrupulosity: If you have not heard the term scrupulously before you may not have OCD or are just learning about it. I am an LDS therapist in McKinney for scrupulosity. Essentially, somebody that struggles with scrupulously fears that they are sinning or making the wrong choice when they really are not. This is OCD based. Sometimes they will get intrusive thoughts that heavenly father is angry with them. Some examples are: an individual might feel like they are breaking the word of wisdom by touching the door handle of somebody who just drink coffee and touched that same door handle. They may also see a pretty girl and wonder if they lusted. Causing them to see their bishop over and over and over again. Another individual might question his past experiences, wondering if he or she were appropriate in certain situations. This will terrorize them to the point where they must speak to the Bishop to feel relief from their anxiety.
If you are struggling with scrupulosity and are looking for an LDS therapist you are in luck. There are only a handful and the whole United States. I am located here in McKinney Texas
