I'm Andrew Rodriguez, a Christian therapist, speaker, and former youth pastor. In my counseling, I specialize in sexual and relational issues. PsychoBible is my outlet for discussing ideas about the intersection of Christianity and psychology, especially regarding sexuality and cultural issues.
Some topics to expect: Theology of the Body, therapy for unwanted same-sex attraction, and the culture war.
On Friday, July 25th, YouTube removed my video from Feb. 6th, interviewing Dr. Joseph Nicolosi, Jr. about his recently published study showing how memory reconsolidation can reduce unwanted sexual arousal, and giving me a Community Guideline Strike for allegedly violating their "Hate Speech" policy. The social justice activists in Big Tech and social media don't want you to know the truth about therapy that can help people with unwanted same-sex attraction experiences. I submitted my appeal on Sunday, Aug. 3rd, and then recorded this video, going through YouTube's policies to show how I in no way committed "hate speech." By the time I finished recording, I received an email from YouTube with their decision on my appeal . . .

Here's my commentary on the Netflix animated film "K-Pop Demon Hunters" as a therapist working with people with deep shame, particularly over sexuality struggles. And I weigh in on the debate over Jonathan Pageau's take that the movie's resolution promotes prideful "self-esteem" and LGBTQ "coming out" celebration.

September 25-27, 2025, I had the immense honor of being at the American Association of Christian Counselors World Conference in Nashville, TN, and co-presenting with Dr. Christopher Rosik, one of my fellow board members on the Alliance for Therapeutic Choice and Scientific Integrity! We presented on Censoring Christian Sexuality: Insights from the Trenches. In my portion, I outlined the Christian vision of sexuality and then the major factors why there is opposition to Christian sexual morality and Christian sexuality counseling, and why there are so many divisions within the church on the topic. For the sake of time, I had to chop a lot. So, here's a more thorough teaching, diving into philosophy, culture dynamics, and Moral Foundations Theory.

On Oct. 7th, the US Supreme Court heard oral arguments for the Kaley Chiles v. Salazar case involving a Christian counselor challenging Colorado's ban against "conversion therapy" for minors. This is a huge case for those of us who have been fighting for therapeutic choice since the first state ban in California passed in 2012. Let's listen to the audio recording and I'll give my commentary as a therapist who specializes in helping people with unwanted same-sex attraction.
