Craig Church
I believe every person holds the innate capacity to grow, heal, and thrive. Along life’s journey, we all encounter supports and obstacles—some clear, others more hidden. My passion lies in helping individuals and couples uncover their strengths and move through life’s transitions with greater clarity and confidence.
I am currently pursuing my Couple and Family Therapy degree at Antioch University and am completing my clinical internship under the supervision of Amber Rice. My approach is rooted in Humanistic principles, emphasizing empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered.
In our work together, I integrate experiential, narrative, and intergenerational therapy models to help clients understand the personal and relational systems they’re a part of. I have also completed specialized training in the Gottman Method for couples, which informs my work with those looking to strengthen or repair their relationships.
Therapy with me is a collaborative process. We’ll work together to identify your goals, explore meaningful interventions, and reflect on your growth along the way.
