Faith-Integrated Therapy That Honors Your Values
Faith-integrated therapy and faith-based counseling for individuals and couples seeking Christian therapy or Catholic therapy that honors their values — online throughout California, with a focus on San Jose and the Bay Area.
Aligning Psychological Care with Your Faith
For many individuals and couples, spiritual values are a core part of emotional healing. Faith-integrated therapy combines proven clinical methodologies (such as CBT and attachment theory) with an optional Christian or Catholic worldview, allowing you to process life's challenges without setting your core beliefs aside.
Catholic & Christian Faith-Integrated Therapy in California
Your faith can be an important part of how you understand yourself, your relationships, and the challenges you're facing.
As a Catholic therapist, I offer a space where emotional well-being and spiritual values can be explored together. For clients who desire it, therapy may incorporate Catholic or Christian perspectives, personal values, prayer, and reflection alongside evidence-informed clinical approaches.
Faith-integrated therapy may be helpful when navigating:
- Relationship struggles, marriage difficulties, and communication challenges.
- Infidelity, betrayal, forgiveness, and rebuilding trust.
- Pregnancy, postpartum experiences, and the transition to parenthood.
- Guilt, shame, family expectations, and personal struggles.
- Major life transitions, grief, and questions about purpose or direction.
- The relationship between personal values, faith, and everyday decisions.
Faith integration is individualized and guided by your preferences. You do not have to choose between caring for your mental health and honoring your faith.
I welcome adults and couples from different backgrounds, whether you identify as Catholic, Christian, or simply want your spiritual beliefs respected as part of therapy.

A Faith That Shapes How I Listen
I am a cradle and practicing Catholic. It is part of how I understand meaning, suffering, forgiveness, and the longing for connection that so many people carry into therapy. Living my faith shapes how I listen with patience, without judgment, and with genuine respect for the whole person sitting in front of me.
I am a therapist and it is never my role to tell you what your faith requires of you. What I can offer is a space where your values and beliefs are welcome if you want them to be woven into our work in a way that feels natural to you, or quietly respected in the background.
Faith integration is always optional and guided by your preference. Some clients want to explore how their faith intersects with a relationship, a difficult decision, or a season of struggle; others simply want a therapist who understands the world they come from. Both are completely welcome. I work with adults and couples from many backgrounds and traditions — Catholic, Christian, and otherwise. You set the pace for how much faith belongs in the room.
