We believe true healing comes through the grace of the Holy Spirit, even in lives who do not yet know Him.  At the Jesus-Centered Schema Therapy® Institute, the division of the practice that explicitly serves Christians wishing to integrate their faith, Dr. Chiara tries to base  client interventions and relationships on the Biblical models of Jesus and His disciples as the supreme example of being a Healthy Adult.  We  believe that God is the author and giver of life and joy!

Dr. Chiara:  “I  received my inspiration from my own walk with Jesus, encountering Him when in prayer when I was a junior in High School, and believing in no uncertain terms that He really exists and is my own Way, Truth and Life. 

All in all, I focus on bringing hope to  discouraged persons and disheartened marriages.  I try to connect in meaningful and personal ways that help people open up to  see what  ‘might be’ with their work and participation, open to truth, meaning in life, and most of all the love and acceptance of Jesus which I hope to evidence.  Jesus…the Only One who says things straight!  I attempt to facilitate renewing hearts and minds, reconciling relationships, and binding up wounds.
