Dr. Jose Valentin, PhD

I came originally to become an ordained minister as a way to formalize and honor my long-standing interest in supporting others emotionally and spiritually during important life events. My experience has allowed me to explore a sense of calling without needing to commit to traditional seminary or formal religious structures. By being ordained it has offered me personally to have practical benefits, such as the ability to offer premarital counseling which aligned with their values of the spiritual connections, service, and creating meaningful, affirming spaces for my clients.
