Erika Garibay - Intern

american association of counselors

Qualifications/Background/Experience

I am currently an intern at Christian Counseling Services while pursuing my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Grand Canyon University. I am trained in EMDR. With a Christian worldview, I am passionate about integrating faith into the healing process for those facing emotional and mental challenges. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Justice Studies from Grand Canyon University.

As a mother of two sons, I deeply value quality family time and cherish the moments I spend with them during my free time. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to connect with a diverse range of clients. My personal journey through trauma has been a significant driving force behind my decision to become a therapist, and I am committed to helping others find healing, just as therapy has helped me. I strongly believe in the power of a Christ-centered approach to mental health and well-being.

My supervisor is Joel Thompson. I will be working out of the North Phoenix Baptist Church 5757 N. Central Ave, Phoenix, AZ 85012.
