Healing in Christian Science is based on the application of principles of Christianity that Jesus taught. He instructed, “I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5) The application of these Christian principles that Jesus demonstrated help us transition our thought away from a finite material sense of life toward an infinite spiritual sense of life. This transition in thought has a practical impact on what we actually experience in our every day lives. While the immediate physical, emotional or behavioral relief from Christian Science treatment is certainly welcome, the most beneficial impact of Christian Science healing is that it leaves you with a greater understanding of God, and not only your relationship to Him, but to your fellow man. That is why people turn to Christian Science healing. The Scope of Services for Christian Science practitioners (available on ChristianScience.com) provides more information about my role in working with you. Helping you experience that healing and growth in understanding is what motivates my practice. I cherish the opportunity to help anyone who sincerely desires healing through Christian Science.

No.  In short, Christian Science treatment is a method of spiritual healing based on the examples taught by Christ Jesus in the Bible.  It does not involve any medical diagnosis, therapy, medication, technology or physical manipulation of any kind.

Christian Science is a method of care that is approached from an entirely different perspective than medical care. While medical care focuses on a material problem and a material solution, Christian Science focuses on our spiritual nature as expressions of God. As such, the two methods of care work against one another. The decision regarding how to care for one's self is always individual. Those who practice Christian Science generally rely on spiritual means for healing because they have found it to be effective, though we always respect the choices and paths of every individual with compassion.

No.  Christian Science and Scientology have no relation to one another.  Christian Science is a Christian religion discovered by Mary Baker Eddy in 1866, who founded the church to commemorate the word and works of Christ Jesus and to “reinstate primitive Christianity and its lost element of healing.” (Manual of The Mother Church, p. 17)  Scientology was developed by L. Ron Hubbard nearly a century later in the 1950’s, and according to the Scientology website, “bridges Eastern philosophy with Western thought.”

That can be a different answer for each Christian Science practitioner.  For most, it’s a lifetime of preparation.  In my case, it started with witnessing at a very young age the healing support that a Christian Science practitioner provides someone who may not be experiencing the desired results from their own study and practice of Christian Science.  We all need that extra support at times, and I have been immensely grateful for those who dedicate their lives to being available to help me and others for this purpose.  One generally starts down this path through their own study and prayer, as well as formal Christian Science class instruction through an authorized Christian Science Teacher.  This naturally expands into healing support of others who reach out for help.  After one has demonstrated enough corroborated examples of effective healing, they can apply to list their public availability in the Christian Science Journal Directory.

The Christian Science practitioner services I offer include dedicated spiritual treatment through prayer to address physical, emotional, or situational challenges. I also provide one-on-one spiritual consultations and guidance for those looking to deepen their personal practice of prayer.

No, healing through Christian Science is open to everyone, regardless of your religious background or where you are on your spiritual path.

The patient, or in the case of a patient who does not have capacity, the patient’s power of attorney for health care decisions, is always in control of initiating, and if needed, determining whether to continue Christian Science treatment.

Since spiritual principles aren't limited by location, it is not necessary for treatment to be in person. Treatment can effectively take place anywhere. However, in some instances an in person visit may be preferable. I am generally available for scheduled visits in the Denver area, as well as phone appointments Monday through Friday between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. (Mountain Time Zone).

Getting started is simple. You can reach out directly by phone, email, or the contact form above, or click the button below to schedule an initial phone consultation. I look forward to supporting your spiritual growth!

Mary Baker Eddy instructed Christian Science practitioners to “make their charges for treatment equal to those of reputable physicians in their respective localities” (The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany, p. 237).  Accordingly, I have tried to approximate my rate for treatment at an amount equivalent to what one might pay out of pocket for an office appointment with a doctor.

Absolutely! Confidentiality is a core tenet of Christian Science practice. Your personal journey and our conversations remain strictly private and sacred.

I typically keep office hours from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each weekday, but the healing work is not limited to those hours.  I try to preserve my mornings for my own study and preparation, as well as providing Christian Science treatment for patients who have engaged me to support them.  I generally reserve afternoons for followup communications with those who I have agreed to help, as well as those seeking help.  Of course, there are always exceptions, and you are free to email or text me any time.  But to protect a portion of my day for my prayerful practice, please understand that I may not be able to follow up with you until the afternoon.
