Psalm 34:18 "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those crushed in spirit."

Your story isn't over.
It's being redeemed.

Some of us have survived profound heartbreak and long for more than the aftermath of busy, anxious, and tired. I help you connect with God and yourself — through your struggles and triumphs — becoming all that He made you to be.

About Alex

My Story

Like many of you, my story has not been an easy one. From early loss, grief, bullying, and general chaos in my childhood, to marrying young and raising a large family, to experiencing profound heartbreak, my journey has been marked by both deep wounds and unexpected grace. Yet through it all, it has become a story of redemption.

This former atheist encountered Jesus in 2007, and I have been following Him ever since.

Hi, I'm Alex (short for Alexandra). I'm a wife of 33 years, a mother of six daughters, and a grandmother. Most of my adult life has been spent as a stay-at-home mom, though I've held various jobs along the way. Today, I love walking alongside people as they discover healing, freedom, and a deeper connection with God while I continue enjoying family life and caring for our many animals.

My healing journey "began" in 2016, nearly ten years after becoming a Christian. Although I was faithfully attending church, reading my Bible, praying, and serving, I sensed God inviting me into something deeper.

At the time, we lived in Colorado Springs, and I enrolled in Healing Journey, a 29-week intensive discipleship and healing program offered through His Healing Light Ministries. I completed the program twice and, through that process — as well as seasons of counseling — began a long journey of healing from complex trauma, sexual abuse, betrayal, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and performance-based worth.

I eventually trained and became a Healing Journey facilitator, leading others through the same process for several years. I also completed various trainings with the Allender Center, and voraciously consumed podcasts and books on healing, neuroscience, Internal Family Systems, and trauma from many professionals (located on resources page of this site).

In 2025, my husband and I moved back home to the East Coast. While that move closed one chapter, it opened another.

I completed coach training through Alive and Free Consulting, where I further developed my skills in listening, asking thoughtful questions, and supporting others in their growth and healing. I have also chosen to continue my education and am pursuing a degree in Addictions Counseling.

I'm not sure our healing journeys are truly ever over, but I do believe there is so much more for us, right here and now. I have learned and embraced having compassion for myself, at all ages and stages, reconnecting neurons in my brain through story work and community and listening to my body and heart. I believe God designed us to survive but also to thrive, and there is more for all of us!

Today, I work with a very limited number of coaching clients, walking alongside them as they discover the healing, freedom, and abundant life God intended for them.
