Trauma, Addiction, Healing and Flourishing with Catholic counselor Christian Wolfe
Manage episode 477030025 series 3287151
Meet Christian Wolfe, a professional counselor who not only runs his own practice, but also serves seminarians and priests through both individual and group counseling. With a Master of Science in Counseling from Divine Mercy University and a Master of Arts in Pastoral Ministry from the Saint Paul Seminary School of Divinity, Wolfe brings a rare integration of clinical expertise and a Catholic understanding of the human person.
In this episode, Wolfe shares how his work — rooted in EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and Motivational Interviewing — supports individuals facing depression, anxiety, trauma, unwanted sexual behavior, and addiction, including digital dependencies. He also talks about guiding those discerning their vocation, whether to the priesthood, religious life, marriage, or career.
Before becoming a counselor, Christian led a high-powered career in international advertising, living and working across five continents. He opens up about that chapter of his life, his encounters with suffering and grace, and how God’s merciful love radically transformed his path.
Tune in to hear Christian reflect on human formation, the importance of integrating faith with psychology, and why he believes healing is always possible — no matter where you've been.
