Meet MARIJA LAMAS, LCSW

Marija founded Selah Professional Counselors after working in private practice for years and seeing the need in the community for therapists who understand/support a client's Catholic faith. She believes strongly that therapy should include the whole person- mind, body, and soul- and sees her job as a ministry. She considers it a privilege when a client allows her into some of the most painful areas of their lives. She commonly sees clients ages 10-40 and particularly has a heart for those healing from family of origin wounds, coping with the stresses/changes of "mom-life", managing ADHD/anxiety/depression, encountering life transitions, and experiencing low self-esteem.
