Meet Redeemer Counselor: Ray Corbo

Early on, I felt the Lord’s calling for me to work with those who were broken and hurting in a counseling setting. My favorite thing about being a counselor is getting to listen to others tell their stories and eventually bring to light the redemptive work that God is doing in their lives.

I grew up in Wayne, New Jersey. When I went away to college, I was the first one in my family to live outside the state! I attended Valley Forge Christian College in Pennsylvania to study Pastoral Ministry, and later switched to Pastoral Counseling. After getting married, I moved back to New Jersey to pursue my masters in Marriage and Family Therapy at the Alliance Graduate School of Counseling.

Heather and I have been married for over 10 years and we are incredibly blessed to have Ella, Caleb and Zoe. We attend the Summit Church in Hackensack where Heather sings on the worship team and I teach youth Sunday school classes.

One fun fact, I grew up watching Jets games with my grandpa, and am still a die-hard fan to this day. Watching Jets games after church has now become a family event. I also enjoy playing classic rock music though lately I'm playing more Disney songs for my kids!
