What You’ll Come Away With:
With every part of my being, I believe (and live!) the TRUTH that God is the healer, He’s here, and He’s already done it. I have zero doubt that you can be healed of whatever emotional trauma or physical disease that you’re experiencing.
Listening to God is the key, and in each session I go the direction that God wants to go. I ask the right questions, and you WILL come away with the breakthrough and healing that you’re willing to receive. I’m excited to give you an infusion of faith, joy, and hope, as well as my confident assurance that God is a good parent who will always come through for you.
Biography:
After I was saved in 1982, God asked me to volunteer at a hospital in my town. I began working with the seniors, and I was soon hired as the Activities Director. Through this job, I was trained as a social services worker, and I continued to gain experience (and certifications) related to supporting peoples’ emotional journeys.
In 1995, my husband and I moved to Redding and joined Bethel. I met Dawna shortly after moving, and I started implementing Sozo tools in several ministries I was involved with. I was most drawn to the “difficult” cases, and I eventually specialized in prophetic deliverance for individuals with severe trauma and/or mental illness (especially those coming out of the New Age, occult, and SRA). God gave me strategies to address “stuck” trauma, and I developed body Sozos as a result. I love seeing God’s miracles everyday, and I’m passionate about helping people connect to God to experience total wholeness and breakthrough.
I’ve been with the Transformation Center since 2003, and I bring to the team my philosophy that “God, You’ve got a problem!” I live with abundant joy, and my problems/sufferings become trifles for me because I look to Him always. My heart is to live more and more each day fully in the present, depending on God for His abundant supply and always seeking God’s help even when I might feel competent to handle something by myself. I believe that pain and problems are opportunities to demonstrate my trust in God since He brings good out of everything. God never causes the problems, pain, or suffering, but instead He helps us overcome each situation with joy. God always has the answers and solutions to all our problems, and His way is always better than ours.
I’ve been married to Steve since 1973. We have two adult children and five grandchildren. In my spare time, I volunteer in Bethel’s healing rooms. I also love gardening, crafting, decorating, reading, and being outside. But my favorite activity is intercessory prayer! I love spending time in the sweet presence of my best friend, Holy Spirit.
