I’ve had reverent Salazar for almost two years. I know I can talk to him about everything. Family life and also coping with losing my dad. I’m thankful he’s in my life. May he help more people in this site.

Samuel is an extremely smart man and makes me feel like he actually cares about me and my mental health. He goes the extra mile in finding me local groups and clinics and refers me books to read. I still have a long way to go but im glad its with him. Thank you Sam

Rev Salazar has been a total blessing to my life and to the state of my mental health. He is well versed in many methods and practices, yet relies on the Spirit to guide him into the right practice at the right time. He led me through breathing exercises that helped to calm my intense anxiety when processing childhood trauma. He combined the breath exercises/clinical approach with Scripture to help the truth of God sink in during that moment. He's walked with me in a number of issues, and expresses his care every single time. Rev Salazar was a great match for me in this season of therapy for me, and I am so thankful.
