Meet the Team
At Life Anchor Center, we’re not just counselors — we’re fellow believers who’ve walked through the darkness of confusion, pain, and spiritual deception — and by God’s grace, we now walk in the light of His truth.
We know what it’s like to wrestle with overwhelming questions, crippling guilt, spiritual hurt, and broken relationships. That’s why we offer more than counseling sessions — we offer a safe place to anchor your life in God’s sufficient Word.
Meet Pablo and Marisely — biblical counselors who walk with you, not ahead of you.

we provide biblical counseling for the entire body of Christ. Whether you’re reeling from spiritual abuse, wrestling with doctrinal confusion, or simply carrying the burdens of everyday life, we’re here to walk with you — not with trendy psychology, but with the unchanging Word of God.
We know how it feels to be lost in false teachings, to grieve over spiritual deception, or to feel isolated in your pain. Our counselors have walked that road too. We're not here as experts looking down — but as redeemed sinners pointing to Christ, the true anchor of the soul.
It was through these experiences that I realized how deeply we all need Biblical truth in our lives—not just to survive hardships, but to find true healing, restoration, and peace. I found that through diving into God’s Word, there was guidance for every area of life, and I felt a clear calling to help others experience that same healing.

Our Heart
At Life Anchor Center, we understand how confusing, painful, and overwhelming life can become when false teaching, broken relationships, or personal struggles cloud God’s truth.
Our center was birthed out of our own journey — not from a place of perfection, but from God’s grace pulling us out of decades of theological confusion, spiritual deception, addiction, and grief. We’ve walked that hard road personally. We’ve sat in the darkness of bad theology and seen the destruction of human-centered religion.
But through the sufficient, healing truth of God's Word, we’ve also experienced hope, freedom, and clarity — and now we walk alongside others who are seeking the same.
We counsel with open Bibles, open hearts, and a firm conviction that God’s Word is enough.
"We love because He first loved us." (1 John 4:19)

From Brokenness and Deception to Freedom in God’s Truth
Our Story
Life Anchor Center was born out of a deeply personal journey through brokenness, surrender, and discovering the transformative power of God’s Word.
For many years, my husband, Pablo Marte, and I were caught up in the prosperity gospel and prophetic movement, searching for answers in teachings that ultimately left us empty. Spiritually adrift, we could not find the true peace and direction our hearts longed for.
During that season, I battled alcoholism, and Pablo wrestled with his role as the spiritual leader of our home. His struggle, combined with my addiction, led us to lose our house and nearly lose our marriage. We were on the verge of divorce, weighed down by shame, confusion, and a sense of unworthiness.
But God, in His grace, intervened. On November 15, 2018, Pablo experienced a profound encounter with the Lord that became the turning point for our family. From that day forward, we began to turn away from the false beliefs that had led us astray and instead anchored our lives in the truth of Scripture.
Through God’s help, I overcame my addiction, and Pablo stepped into his God-given role as the spiritual leader of our home. Our marriage was restored, and our faith began to flourish as we built our lives on Christ alone.
Since then, we have experienced tremendous growth and transformation. We’ve learned firsthand that true freedom, healing, and purpose can only be found in Jesus. Life Anchor Center was established out of this place of renewal and gratitude.
Today, our mission is to help others who feel lost, trapped, or wounded. We offer biblical counseling rooted in God’s unchanging truth for individuals, couples, and families.
If you are struggling—whether with addiction, broken relationships, or spiritual confusion—we are here to walk alongside you. You don’t have to face these challenges alone. There is hope, and there is freedom in Christ.
-Pablo & Marisely Marte
