Allowable: It's allowable to ask, but you might get a better response by checking with your local psychological association -- or the "find a therapist" search engine at http://www.Psychologytoday.Com/.

It's allowable but..: Psychology is an art based on science. Science and religion are antithetical. Religion requires belief without proof; science demands evidence. Psychology is extremely heterogeneous and every psychologist has his/her individual approach. The science is based on a body of evidence. The art is where the psychologist if (s)he chooses brings in the personal, including religion. You have to ask them.
