Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
For many people, healing isn’t just emotional or psychological—it’s also deeply spiritual. I welcome your spirituality, however you define it, into the therapy room and honor it as a source of strength, meaning, and guidance in your healing process.

Su Boudreau, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Domestic Violence Counselor
Spirituality includes traditional religious and non-religious belief systems. One can have an unique outlook or belief in life as well. Although it is not forced, when applicable, looking at identified subjects with spiritual views can be a helpful solution as well. Personally, I am open to most of spiritual belief systems as long as it would not be harmful to others. If you would like to explore and share your views on this topic, contact me or leave me your contact info.

For many people faith and spirituality are central to how they understand themselves, their relationships, and their struggles. We welcome clients who want their spiritual life honored as part of the therapeutic process, whether that means integrating Christian faith, exploring questions of meaning and purpose, or simply having a therapist who doesn't ask you to leave your beliefs at the door.

Psychologist, PhD
While psychotherapy often focuses on decreasing psychological symptoms; I am open to working with individuals who also believe that spirituality is an important component to decreasing psychological issues and furthering psychological growth.

Melissa Quinn Pollock
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Making meaning of our human experience beyond the capitalistic and patriarchal structures that dominate our society is an essential component of my practice. While I do not ascribe to any religion, I do believe in the power of the sovereign self that we can access through the language of emotions, bodily sensations, thoughts, dreams, and more. There is no need to be practicing any type of formal spirituality to work with me, just an openness to the life force energy that can occur.

Nekea Strong (Abundant Life Therapy)
Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT, APCC
As a Christian clinical, I am aware that spirituality looks different for each person and is always guided by what feels meaningful and supportive to them. I offer space to explore faith, values, beliefs, and spiritual questions without judgment or pressure. For some, this may include integrating prayer, scripture, mindfulness, or reflection into sessions. For others, it may simply mean making sense of life experiences through a values based or purpose driven lens. Spirituality is never imposed, but when invited, it can be a grounding and healing resource that supports emotional growth, resilience, and deeper self understanding.

Saralee Kramer Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Spiritual psychology is my specialty. This is not about religion. Spiritual development means many things to people. This is about developing intuition and a deep connection to your own Inner Counselor. Personally, I don't think the challenges of life on earth are solved with the mind. They're solved by reaching inward and developing a heart centered, personal relationship with the divine spark within. We are eternal beings of light having a purposeful, temporary human experience at an important time in our planetary evolution. Many are finding themselves called to explore this important inner territory.

GRIS ALVES
Counselor/Therapist, Compassionate Inquiry, Trauma Informed Mindfulness Teacher
I support clients exploring spirituality through a compassionate, trauma-informed lens that honors both personal experience and ancestral wisdom. I work with those navigating religious trauma or restrictive beliefs, helping deconstruct patterns that have caused shame, fear, or disconnection. For those seeking contemplative accompaniment or spiritual direction—or even what I call “unspiritual direction”—I draw on mindfulness, earth-based traditions, and somatic practices to help clients reconnect with their inner guidance, intuition, and sense of meaning. Together, we explore spiritual growth, self-discovery, and the integration of mind, body, and soul in ways that are both grounded and transformative.
