Seabrook clients who select the Christian track will be under the care of Rev. Paul Asciutto, Jr., who has devoted his life to helping individuals and families develop healthy ways to deal with the stressors in life for more than 40 years. He brings to the table his spiritual wisdom as a pastor and teacher for 20 years and his knowledge in the addiction field for the last 20 years.
Rev. Asciutto was ordained to the Gospel Ministry at First Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas in 1981, and graduated from the Criswell Center for Biblical Studies with a B.A. He has a B.S. from the City University of NY, and earned his master’s in social work from Stony Brook University in 1994. He has been a licensed social worker since 1994, and a licensed clinical social worker since 2011. In 2013, he received certification as a clinical social work supervisor. He received Caron’s Greater Philadelphia Community Service Award for Spirituality in 2016.
Rev. Asciutto believes God called him to Seabrook, where he has served as our family services coordinator for more than five years. In that time, he has taught and inspired more than 2,000 families to develop and implement the new coping skills they need in their journey of healing from the disease of addiction. Rev. Asciutto has helped develop our Christian recovery program, which he also oversees as our spiritual care director.
