Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Spirituality means something different to everyone. For me, it's holding space for a higher power. I respect and work well with individuals from all religions and I don't bring up spirituality or religion unless you bring it up first. I'll take your lead and support you where your at. I love to help you look at your problems or issues through a spiritual lens that resonates with you. To help you explore, what do your beliefs and your gut say about this or that. Spirituality is so unique to each individual so I'll ask you to share your beliefs so I can support you through those beliefs.

Psychologist, MA, LLP
Some individuals or families may be deeply committed to their faith and base much of their lives around spirituality or religion. Prayer, religious meditation, or some other aspect of spiritual connection may form part of an individual's self-care routine, as might church or volunteer work in the community.
Spiritual beliefs can also play a significant role in one’s ability to cope with adverse events in life. Spiritual practices can:
Provide social and emotional support.
Help people find meaning and purpose in life.
Offer comfort in times of grief.
Provide ethical and moral guidelines by which some choose to live.
When a person who is religious or spiritual seeks treatment, sensitivity on the part of a therapist may be beneficial to treatment because it may lead to a broader evaluation of the person seeking treatment and allow the therapist to explore a wider variety of treatment solutions.
Therapists who are aware of therapeutic strategies based in spirituality, such as spiritual journaling or forgiveness protocols, may also be able to provide people in therapy with resources on these topics, whether or not they are able to address them personally. Individuals who gain strength from their spiritual faith may find it difficult to achieve progress and healing in therapy when unable to address and incorporate all dimensions of who they are.

Cynthia Leslie
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, MA, CPRS
Having a healthy sprit man is just as important as being healthy mentally and physically. Sometimes people find themselves being stagnant spiritually. Stagnancy can cause frustration, confusion and a feeling of a sense of bondage. Freedom can come through realizing God’s plan for your life.

Dr. Amanda Roberts
Psychologist, PhD Clinical Psychology, Masters in Marriage Family Therapy
We are fundamentally spiritual beings. When we become divorced from this reality we are exiled from our essence. Spiritual bankruptcy is the basis for most of our suffering in this incarnation. A reclamation of who we truly are provides the remedy and pathway towards a more joyful, compassion filled life.
