In His Image Counseling Center
/In His Image Counseling Center began in San Antonio in the early 1990’s, where Sue Baars began her counseling practice. The name “In His Image” came to her as she was contemplating what name to give her private practice. She wanted something that would articulate the focus of her work which was grounded on the psychology of St. Thomas Aquinas and that of her father, Conrad Baars, M.D., and his colleague, Anna Terruwe, M.D.
After moving to Dallas in 2002, Sue began working with Maribel Laguna in their Irving office, and the practice became officially incorporated. In His Image Counseling Center is deeply committed to providing evidence-based mental health treatment centered in a Catholic understanding of the human person and to help individuals reclaim their sense of goodness and dignity as beloved children of God.
From Sue and Maribel:
Our work is inspired by Mother's Teresa's phrase "a call within a call." Although all of our clinicians have a primary call to their respective vocations, we each feel called to helping individuals heal through counseling.
Our goal is to bring Christ’s healing and peace to suffering hearts and minds through excellence in psychotherapy.
