About me

Pastoral Counselor with more than 30 years of experience. I have worked with survivors of disasters or crises, people who have experienced a humanitarian crisis, or who are survivors of migration-related trauma. I have also worked with disaster workers experiencing compassion fatigue and/or veterans experiencing adjustment issues. I consider it important to walk with people who seek accompaniment and a compassionate ear after a traumatic experience, as well as those people who because of their age feel overwhelmed and without desire to move forward, as well as those who have suffered loss and hope.

Consejera Pastoral con más de 30 años de experiencia. He trabajado con sobrevivientes de desastres o crisis, personas que han experimentado una crisis humanitaria o que son sobrevivientes de traumas relacionados con la migración. También he trabajado con trabajadores de desastres que experimentan fatiga por compasión y / o veteranos que experimentan problemas de adaptación. Considero importante caminar con personas que buscan acompañamiento y un oído compasivo después de una experiencia traumática, así como con aquellas personas que por su edad se sienten abrumadas y sin ganas de seguir adelante, así como con aquellas que han sufrido pérdida y esperanza.

Dr Prewitt-Diaz is a kind, intelligent and extremely insightful therapist who does an incredible job at making you feel safe and secure as you navigate your feelings and open yourself up to vulnerability. Each therapy session taught me so much about myself, as he offers perspectives I hadn’t thought of, helping me reflect on my experiences with an open mind. I am so grateful to him for his wisdom and heart and would recommend him again and again and again!

Joe is a compassionate and highly intelligent therapist whose extensive experience—from education to counseling—has been invaluable to me and my child. Not only is he bilingual, but he is also bicultural, allowing him to connect deeply with diverse perspectives and understand unique challenges. His candid and thoughtful approach fosters a safe space for open, honest discussions, making every session meaningful. With deep insights and practical guidance, he has helped me navigate my situation with clarity and confidence. I highly recommend Joe to anyone seeking a skilled, empathetic, and culturally attuned therapist who truly makes a difference.

Best therapist I have encountered in my life. I 1000% recommend Dr. Prewitt-Diaz to any Latino that is looking to be understood, the flexibility of being able to communicate in my own language (Spanish) but also express some other things in English is such a blessing for me. He makes you feel so comfortable and never judge
