Founder + therapist · Established 2025
Yvonne Sailor-Walker
Where Jesus + therapy meet. The care beneath that promise, the values that hold it, and the places this work shows up.
Who she is
A therapist who never asks you to leave your faith at the door.
The Praying Therapist is led by Yvonne Sailor-Walker, a licensed professional therapist who ethically integrates faith with evidence-based care. Healing extends beyond the therapy room through counseling, teaching, and resources designed to support lasting, whole-person transformation.
The Praying Therapist™ was established in 2025 as the home for that work — a place where prayer and clinical practice are held with the same care.
The mission
Total healing and transformation that is faith-based.
“Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out.”
What she practises by
Three commitments beneath every conversation.
- 01
Integrated Healing.
Faith and therapy in the same room, held together rather than traded against each other.
- 02
Values-aligned Care.
Care that starts from what you believe, instead of asking you to set it aside first.
- 03
Whole Person Support.
Mind, body, and spirit tended together — you never arrive as only one of them.
Areas of focus
Where this work shows up.
Beyond the therapy room, the message travels — in rooms, on microphones, and in resources you can hold onto.
Speaking Engagements
Talks for stages, pulpits, and gatherings where faith and mental health can finally be named in the same breath.
Media Features
Podcasts and panel conversations exploring what it actually looks like when Jesus and therapy meet.
Workshops / Trainings
Teaching sessions for churches, teams, and groups who want language for faith-aligned mental health care.
Digital Resources
Guides, journals, and reflection tools that let the healing continue long after the session ends.
