Connecting Faith with Mental Health

At Puerta Del Corazón Counseling, I believe faith is not just one aspect of life—it’s the foundation of who we are and what we do. In my faith-integrated approach, I draw from the Catholic understanding of the human person as a unity of body, mind, and soul, created in the image of God. This perspective allows me to see each patient not as a problem to be fixed, but as a whole person with immeasurable worth.

I integrate faith into the therapeutic process through reflection on Scripture, prayer when desired, and values-based dialogue that connects psychological growth with spiritual renewal. As Jesus says in Revelation 3:20, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock.” In therapy, I see this gentle knocking as Christ’s invitation to healing—welcoming Him into places of pain, confusion, or loss, and allowing grace to meet you there.

By combining evidence-based treatment with the wisdom of Catholic tradition, I aim to help you find hope, navigate suffering with purpose, and grow into the person God created you to be. I am also an active member of the Catholic Psychotherapy Association and stay up to date on the most effective treatment modalities that align with the Catholic faith.

This approach always respects your personal beliefs and is open to individuals of all backgrounds who are seeking greater self-awareness, peace, and wholeness. I also honor patients who prefer not to incorporate faith into their treatment, ensuring therapy remains centered on your goals and values.
