What Is Therapy Really Like? A Glimpse Inside Catholic Therapy – The Catholic Therapist
What does therapy actually look like — and can it really fit with your Catholic faith?
In this episode, Catholic therapist Adam Cross, LMFT (#116623) sits down with Nora Rosales, a therapist with The Catholic Therapy Center, to give an honest glimpse inside the therapy room.
Nora shares her journey as a first-generation college student and eldest daughter of Mexican immigrants — from a culture where therapy was rarely encouraged to becoming a therapist herself. Together, she and Adam unpack what makes therapy work and where God shows up in the process.
Topics covered: • Why obstacles can become our greatest teachers • The power of telling your story and being truly heard • What to do when you hit a wall with your therapist • Cultural stigma, and why faith is a cultural consideration too • Seeing our parents as God sees them — and naming the wound so we can forgive • A Catholic view of self-care: loving ourselves as God loves us
Healing isn't selfish: we're healed to be sent out, with our cup full, to love others well.
