Our Counselors

Meet our Team

LFC's counselors have over 20 years of combined counseling experience helping individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, relational issues, and other mental health issues.

What makes us distinctively different is our use of Temperament Therapy along with Biblical counseling. Temperament Therapy has been shown to have over 90% success when administered by a person trained in this counseling technique.


We have also partnered with Aligned Prayer Ministry.  This ministry is not counseling.

Miguelina


Miguelina is a Licensed Minister of Pastoral Care with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Yale University, working toward her Master’s degree in Clinical Christian Counseling. She is also a Certified Temperament Counselor through the National Christian Counselors Association.

Miguelina is bilingual in Spanish. *Wednesday appointments are virtual only.

  • Read More

    Miguelina has felt called to the ministry of counseling since she was a child seeking to comfort and encourage her closest friends during her sometimes bleak childhood in the Bronx. She worked in social services in New York City for a few years after college and then spent over a decade in the fitness industry as a personal trainer. Her time as a trainer only fueled her interest in helping others spiritually, mentally, and emotionally.


    After the pandemic, Miguelina became a stay-at-home mother and caretaker for her elderly mother while homeschooling her son through the high school years. She found Life Focus Center during a dark season in her life and in it a loving community where God continued to restore and heal her soul from the impact of various life experiences and traumas. 


    Miguelina is grateful for the privilege of having others share their stories with her. She loves to help them understand and connect with God’s love for them through the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. God has been a father, a protector, a rescuer, a brother and a friend through the challenges she has faced.  The truth of God’s word and His Holy Spirit set her free from fear, insecurity, anxiety, and depression. 


    Now she longs to help others find healing and restoration in their relationship with God; to help them make peace with the past, find joy in the present and feel hopeful about their future.  She especially feels called to those who have been affected by abusive relationships, domestic violence, seasons of loss and grief, those caring for children and elderly parents, and those who have ever felt alone, like an outcast or a misfit. She also enjoys working with teens and groups.


    Miguelina is the mother of two beautiful adult children who have been her life’s greatest blessing. She enjoys working out, hiking, reading, and walking her Chihuahua and Chihuahua-Dachshund mix poochies, who often make her feel like she is once again, the mother of a couple of toddlers.
