About Me
Chris Gioielli, PsyD
LICENSED PSYCHOLOGIST
I am a licensed psychologist offering psychological assessments and individual psychotherapy to adults. I have extensive experience and education in the fields of psychology and spirituality. My area of specialty is treating patients who have experienced abuse, trauma, and pain connected to their religious and spiritual backgrounds. I work with pastors, missionaries, and seminary students, but also those who identify within the LGBTQ+ community, exvangelical community, and those who no longer practice a form of faith due to the painful experiences they’ve encountered. I also work with patients experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as relational conflict, emotional detachment, and general mental health concerns. My hope is to partner with you to help you understand yourself, deepen your relationships with others, and achieve relief from your suffering. I work hard to gain your trust and partner with you to co-create a journey toward healing.
