My desire as a Christian Trauma Therapist is to equip you with the necessary resources and knowledge to cultivate a secure environment and promote the importance of seeking professional assistance when alternative approaches fall short. I am dedicated to making a meaningful difference in individuals' lives while breaking down the societal barriers and perceptions surrounding mental health treatment. Together, we can make a positive impact in the community. To book training for your ministry, please schedule a 30-minute video consultation by clicking book training.
