My name is Jeffrey Barlatier, and I’m raising funds to continue my studies at CalSouthern University (PsyD in Clinical Psychology) and Liberty University (Master of Divinity) — two degrees that represent one calling: to bring healing to both the mind and the soul.

From an early age, I felt a pull toward helping people. That call led me into the field of psychology, where I’ve worked for years in higher education and addiction recovery. But it also led me deeper — into the heart of God’s Word, where I discovered that real transformation begins not just with therapy, but with truth and grace.

After 16 years serving in college admissions, I was unexpectedly let go. It was a painful setback, but I believe God used it to redirect me toward His plan — to prepare for pastoral ministry while completing the clinical training I began years ago.

I am currently enrolled in CalSouthern’s Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) program, where I’m learning to integrate evidence-based therapy with biblical wisdom. I’m also beginning my Master of Divinity at Liberty University, equipping myself to preach, teach, and shepherd with both theological depth and psychological insight.

My ultimate goal is to open a faith-based counseling center and Bible college, where theology and psychology meet — helping others find freedom from bondage, healing from trauma, and purpose in Christ.

These programs together cost about $64,000, and while I’m working to cover as much as I can, tuition deadlines are approaching fast. I’m humbly asking for help — not as charity, but as partnership in purpose. Every donation, no matter how small, helps me take one more step toward completing this mission.

Your support will go directly toward:

Tuition and textbooks for both programs

Research and practicum fees for the PsyD

Ministry preparation and pastoral training through Liberty

If you’ve ever believed in the power of redemption, education, or second chances , I ask you to stand with me. Together, we can prove that God’s grace still writes new stories from broken beginnings.

“For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.” — Romans 11:29

Thank you for reading, sharing, praying, and giving. Your support is not just helping me reach a goal, it’s helping me answer a calling.

With gratitude and faith,

Jeffrey Barlatier
