About Allison

I’m Allison Ricciardi and I’m the Founder and Director of The Raphael Remedy.

Let me start by telling you that I’m a believer. That means that I believe in God and that I also believe in the goodness of all of His creation- people especially, being His crowning achievement. I also believe that God put into nature all that we need to be healthy and happy.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in practice since 1990- which is a long time! Over the years I’ve worked with many individuals, couples, and families and what I’ve learned is that most people are more normal than they think they are. Really.

The goal of Catholic Therapists is to help those seeking therapy and coaching, or even those just seeking to learn more about the emotional life, to find professionals who are Catholic and faithful to the magisterium of the Church. We also provide psychological information that is consistent with Catholic Church teaching.
