About Dr. Butner
Roger earned his Masters of Marriage and Family Therapy degree from Abilene Christian University, and is a licensed MFT in the state of Louisiana. He has been providing high quality Christian therapy since 1997. He helps clients with a wide range of issues, some of which include: depression, anxiety, self-injuring behaviors, domestic abuse, marriage preparation, marriage counseling, family counseling, and adolescent and child counseling. He is also a MFT supervisor-in-training, and is available for supervision for those working on an MFT license. He got his Ph.D. in Family Studies and Mass Communication from the University of Alabama because of his passion for helping families remain healthy in our electronic entertainment age.

He and his wife have one son. You can email Roger at roger@hopeforyourfamily.com.
“My basic philosophy of counseling and life is captured in one word - HOPE. Some clients come to me with a hope for a better life, but without a roadmap to get them there. Others come to me, desperate for something better than the Hell in which they are living, but not even having a real hope of what that better life would look like. Either way, my job is to help you capture a clear vision and hope for a better life for yourself, your marriage, and/or your family, and to help show you and guide you along the path to get there. With the guidance of the Spirit of the Lord, I will do my best to serve you and your family as you work toward a better life.”
“My private practice is growing rapidly at the Baton Rouge Christian Counseling Center. I still have some openings for new clients, and you may call BRCCC to schedule an appointment. I have appointment times available in the early morning (7 am), during the day, and in the evening. I am already on several insurance provider panels, and am doing my best to get on more. Call the office or check the BRCCC website for information about fees, insurance coverage, and appointment times. I look forward to meeting you, and I pray God will use my gifts to bless you and your family during this time in your life.”
