Bluemountain,
I have seen two Ts since starting down this road. My first T was a Psychologist and he worked in a group that is a Christian practice. We never prayed during our sessions but we do talk about my faith... my struggle trusting everyone even God and he has quoted scripture ....
My second T is a licensed counselor... we don't pray in session but I have talked about Christian books I've read and about my feelings about my faith and about my personal bible reading and prayer time and she does suggest things that she thinks will help that are religious like prayer...
That being said both of my T's also talked about regular psychology that other non christian t's talk about like like cognitive distortions, how the past impacts today, talking about pstd and triggers , etc., etc..
So for me its been the best of both worlds. Both T's have been open to me talking about my struggles with faith... challenging God... even shaking my fist at God... everything that I was feeling was open and I didn't feel judged for where I was...
