Banu Ibaoglu Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC, CIRT, CCH
I approach spirituality not as ideology, but as lived experience: how you make meaning, how you relate to mystery, how you understand suffering, responsibility, and aliveness. Many people struggle privately with spiritual doubt, disillusionment, or the tension between psychological insight and faith. Others sense a spiritual dimension to their relational conflicts or life transitions but lack a language for it. I offer a space where these questions can be explored thoughtfully and without pressure — integrating psychological depth, relational awareness, and respect for the complexity of belief.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
In my work with clients, I draw on spirituality as a vital aspect of their therapeutic journey, recognizing that for many, spiritual beliefs and practices are deeply intertwined with their sense of well-being and identity. I approach this integration with sensitivity and respect, exploring how clients' spiritual perspectives can be a source of strength, meaning, and healing. Whether it involves discussing spiritual beliefs, incorporating mindfulness practices, or addressing existential questions, I strive to create a space where clients feel comfortable connecting their spiritual experiences with their therapeutic goals. By weaving spirituality into our work, I aim to support clients in finding greater insight, purpose, and resilience, helping them navigate their challenges with intention and a holistic sense of self.

Matt Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, LMHC
My graduate school focused on humanistic and transpersonal approaches, which basically means we looked at the whole person, including their spiritual side. Exploring spirituality has been a huge part of my own journey too. I've trained in various spiritual practices over the years, and I see spirituality and psychology as deeply connected. When your mental health improves, you often have better access to spiritual experiences, and working on spiritual growth can actually boost your psychological wellness.
I believe dreams are one of the main ways we connect with our deeper spiritual selves, and I've helped a lot of people understand what their dreams are trying to tell them. Another area I specialize in is what we call "spiritual emergencies," which are intense spiritual experiences that can feel overwhelming or confusing, like sudden mystical experiences or feeling like you're losing your sense of self during spiritual practices.
I also work with people who want to make sense of psychedelic experiences or other non-ordinary states of consciousness. Whether someone has had a profound experience with plant medicines, meditation, or other consciousness-expanding practices, I can help them understand what happened and integrate those insights into their everyday life in healthy ways.

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.
