"Unless [men and women] find in the Church a spirituality which can offer healing and liberation, and fill them with life and peace, while at the same time summoning them to fraternal communion and missionary fruitfulness, they will end up by being taken in by solutions which neither make life truly human nor give glory to God." - Pope Francis
The Marriage & Family Life Office has started compiling a database of faith-filled counselors, to help meet the various needs of Catholics across the Archdiocese of Portland. If parishioners have approached you regarding counseling, please reach out to your pastor, as they will be able to assist you in accessing this database.
In addition, we are always looking to expand our network of counselors, especially outside the metro Portland area - and we are always looking for Spanish speakers! If you know of any professional counselors who might be interested in serving the Catholic community in this capacity, encourage them to reach out to the Office, by contacting 503-234-5334 or jkidd (at) archdpdx.org
