A sacred and affirming space for People of Faith — from all traditions — to pursue their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Welcome to Elevation C³. We offer culturally competent coaching and counseling services, providing a sacred and affirming space for People of Faith — from all traditions — to pursue their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
We understand that for many, faith is not just a belief system — it is the lens through which life is experienced. Our practitioners are committed to integrating your spiritual journey into the therapeutic process with respect, openness, and non-judgment.
All faith traditions honored: Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, indigenous spiritual practices, and beyond. Dr. Sablo does not impose a framework. He meets you within yours. Our services welcome individuals from all denominations and traditions — including those who identify as spiritual but not religious.
Faith integration is a clinical skill requiring a therapist who has lived inside a faith community. As a licensed minister and church musician, Dr. Sablo understands church hurt, spiritual bypassing, religious trauma, and the profound power of genuine faith. We help you reconcile beliefs with personal experience — identity, relationships, and life changes — and use spiritual practices as tools for growth.
True wellness encompasses mind, body, and spirit. All three, in relationship with each other. Every coaching and counseling approach is tailored to honor your cultural context and spiritual values — leading to deeper self-awareness and sustainable peace.
As a licensed minister and church musician, Dr. Sablo engages with people of faith from the inside — not as an observer, but as a believer. He is particularly passionate about engaging with those committed to the principles of liberation theology within African American spiritual traditions.
As an African American and Latino, same-gender-loving (gay), Christian man, Dr. Sablo is uniquely positioned to hold space for people navigating the complex intersection of faith, identity, and lived experience — including those who have experienced “church hurt” or spiritual abuse. Your faith is not a barrier here. It is a foundation.
