Reconnect with your deepest values

You’re tired.

You’ve been showing up for everyone else but feeling unsure whether it’s okay to show up for yourself.

You suspect there’s more to life - your beliefs tell you that joy and peace are accessible, but you’re struggling to find the path.

Meet Irene

I’m Dr. Irene Kraegel, and I know life is tough. Depression, anxiety, and everyday stress all take a toll - then add parenting difficulties, church hurt, loss, or chronic pain, and the weight can feel too heavy to bear.

I’m here to help lighten the load and get you feeling healthy again.

If you’re a Christian, you can trust that your whole faith story is welcome here in the therapy room - let’s integrate your mental health and faith together, because God cares about all of you.

If you’re not too into the whole spiritual thing, no worries - I’ll follow your lead on how much integration you would like (or not).

Either way, don’t carry the weight alone. Let’s walk together!

doctoral-level Christian therapist in Grand Rapids & PsyPact

“I am truly grateful of all your compassion, patience, strength, wisdom, and care you have shown me. Your counseling and the meditation practice have given me so much self-awareness and new and positive perspective.”

Offerings.

  • A spiral notebook with lined pages and a gold pen resting on it, positioned next to a white mug filled with coffee or tea, on a dark wooden surface.

    Therapy

    Grab a warm drink and settle in. It’s time to unpack some baggage as you increase your self-understanding, heal old wounds, and take specific steps toward living into the goodness God has for you.

  • A yellow book titled 'The Mindful Christian' by Dr. Irene Kraegel, placed on top of two black books, with a chamomile flower on the cover. To the left, a cup of coffee and a potted plant are seen, all on a wooden surface.

    Mindfulness Coaching

    Receive customized guidance and instruction regarding the skill of mindfulness meditation, a practice designed to deepen contentment & increase calm. Does mindfulness fit with Christian faith? 100%.

  • A woman speaking at a podium with a microphone, wearing glasses on her head and a black shirt with blue floral pattern, against a brick wall background.

    Speaking

    Treat your small group, church, or conference to a deep dive into mental health, with the option to blend in faith for a spiritually integrated experience. Common topics include Christian mindfulness, self-care, & youth anxiety.

“I can honestly say that I am a happier person today than when I first started working with you. You helped mold me into the person I am today.”

In-Person and Virtual Sessions

At Dwell Psychological Services, I understand that life can be hectic and help isn’t always available next door. That’s why I offer both in-person sessions at my Grand Rapids location and virtual sessions for your convenience throughout the 43 PsyPact states.

Whether you prefer the calming space of my office or the comfort of your own home, I’m here to support you.

“You were a reliable constant in my life when nothing else was. You knew what you were talking about, and you were also willing to try different things. You were exactly what I needed.”
