Christian Therapy with Grace was founded by Altagracia Akopyan also known as Grace. Therapy with Grace understand that it can became difficult to find a therapist that is both experienced enough to see clients requiring different needs while still having the availability to meet clients sooner than later in person and online. In effort to change the standard in the mental health field, Therapy with Grace was created. At Therapy with Grace, clients can book same week appointments, find a therapist that you feel comfortable with by booking a complimentary intro session who shares your similar beliefs and values.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
I offer secure, confidential online therapy for individuals and couples who prefer the flexibility of meeting remotely. Online therapy allows us to do meaningful, effective work together while reducing barriers like travel time, busy schedules, or geographic location. This can be especially important for clients seeking sex therapy, sex addiction therapy, or LGBTQ+ affirming care, which may not be readily available in more rural areas of Texas and California. I strive to create the same sense of connection, safety, and presence in online sessions as I do in person. For many clients, meeting from their own space helps them feel more comfortable and engaged, making it easier to stay consistent and focused on the work we’re doing together.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
We have 14 + years of experience supporting folks with Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery. We recognize dehumanization and exploitation are part of a capitalist ideology and colonial and imperial strategies and abuses are perpetrated by people affected with that mindset, and can take the form of abuse within the family, the workplace, groups, and other relational dynamics where power over may be abused/misused to transgress. We recognize when violence is happening anywhere to one being, it is likely happening elsewhere, so we only work with people committed to anti-oppression and ending abuse and subjugation everywhere! We are skilled and certified in complex trauma work, parts work including: TIST - Trauma Informed Stabilization Treatment (Janina Fisher's Work), IFS -- Internal Family Systems; trained in IPNB, Bonnie Badenochs Dyadic Parts Work, EFIT, SensoriMotor... Certified in Somatic and Creative Trauma Recovery Support and Intersectional and Social Justice Frameworks, Multi-generational/historic trauma and wisdom Support, Attachment Theory, Mindfulness, Polyvagal Theory, SSP, CranioSacral -- please see our listing at Upledger Institute, distance TCM, herbalism and homeopathy support, Relational/Mediation/Partners/Couples work certification, Energy Work, Sidereal Astrology integration as asked for, and Integrated Ethnotraditional Healing Ways. We have also completed the two year fellowship for Functional Psychiatry through Psychiatry Redefined and review ISEAI and NORMI info, so we integrate support for folks with mold and some other environmental toxin impacts. We receive referrals and are also glad to coordinate healthcare with other professionals if requested by the client. We are trained in herablism of different cosmologies and have supported people who work with others in integrity with plant medicine. We do not administer medicine journeys -- though we have extensive background in supporting people to prepare and to metabolize/integrate afterwards. We have extensive experience helping people recover from Narcissistic Trauma, Workplace/Institutional Bullying, Poverty Trauma -- we only work with people who are committed to ending violence and brutality everywhere. We recognize if power over abuse is happening to one person, it's likely happening to many elsewhere in the world, or even close by, and every one person's recovery is part of pushing back on and ending systemic violence. So the individual and systemic recovery must happen together.
Our specializations are support for CSAS -- Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Abuse, Survivors or folks currently enduring narcissistic or bullying trauma, Survivors of colonial trauma, and often underserved POC/GM folks. We are a WOC/GM practice. We have a strong record for working with people with intensive DID, DDNOS and other undiagnosed dissociation, CPTSD and trauma survivor experiences and feelings -- very welcome here, as long as folks are committed to healing within a movement of standing for all being's right to dignity and self determination.
We are a Decolonizing Oriented and Intersectional Framework Practice prioritizing care for those who are systemically impacted and those who are active bystanders and activists. Red lines are red lines -- no excuses for perpetration. That said, if people are on the journey to ****actively (not just hypothetically or theoretically) repair, be an engaged and active bystander and not enact hegemonic violence with strong commitment, we are here to support that journey.
