Helping to guide those seeking God’s truth and wisdom.
Developing and honing our gifts with scientific knowledge and the professional skills of evaluation, assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and therapeutic intervention.

I specialize in counseling from an orthodox Christian perspective, integrating evidence-based therapeutic approaches with a biblical framework to help clients navigate anxiety, grief, relationships, life transitions, and personal growth.

Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
I integrate a faith-based perspective in therapy for clients who find their spiritual life an important part of healing. Together, we may incorporate spiritual practices—like breath prayers or mindful reflection—to help ease anxiety, chronic illness, or depression, creating a sense of calm, connection, and grounded support.

If you are Christian and would like to incorporate your faith into treatment, we can absolutely do this. If you have had negative experiences with Christianity and would like to unpack that, I will hold a safe space and non-judgment for you to process Church hurt. Therapy isn't about a therapist imparting their values on their clients. It is quite the opposite. It is about clients sharing their values with us and we guide you based on those values.
