TBRI® is a trauma-informed, evidence-based, holistic approach that brings healing through meeting the needs within the family unit. TBRI® provides a systematic approach to restoring the foundation for mental health. TBRI® came into my world because I am an adoptive mom. But what I didn’t know is that knowing and training in TBRI® would change everythingContinue reading “Trust-Based Relational Intervention® -To Live Ministry”

To Live Ministry – A Place To Live
A New Movement Is Rising In my work, I see a recurring theme: women raising children with special needs—often on their own. There’s no daycare for these kids, and even if such services existed, the funds simply aren’t there to make them accessible. Many of these women are working hard, doing the best they can,Continue reading “To Live Ministry – A Place To Live”
Supporting Regulation
So I have another story for you today. I’ve been working with a family for about half a year now. When I first met Mom, she really wasn’t connected to her son. During our first visit, she leaned in and was teachable —bringing her son close, holding his hands, and speaking to him while lookingContinue reading “Supporting Regulation”
It’s the little moments of break through..
It’s in the little moments when, all of a sudden, a breakthrough happens. I have a beautiful story about a little boy who doesn’t have words. His mom shared a wonderful, moving experience with her son. She and another caregiver were driving in the car with him in the backseat. He was diligently playing onContinue reading “It’s the little moments of break through..”
There is a season for everything under the sun.
I’d love to tell you about a family. There is a lot of extended family involved, but in this case, it’s a grandma raising her grandson. It’s a hard story. When I met them, Grandma was preparing to have her grandson come live with her full-time. I began teaching her TBRI® before he moved in.Continue reading “There is a season for everything under the sun.”
My Childrens Book
I never considered myself a writer, but one day back in 2017 everything changed. It felt like I received a download straight from the Holy Spirit—a story that I just had to share. Originally, I wrote it in a craft-store journal and made some copies for my nieces, nephews, friends and my children. A fewContinue reading “My Childrens Book”
Oil of Joy
There was a season in my life when everything felt unbearably hard. The world I thought I knew was crumbling—truths I had clung to proved false, and all I could see was emptiness. Beauty seemed lost to me. I was drowning in pain, unable to move beyond what I was facing. One day, someone prayedContinue reading “Oil of Joy”
Healing Families
To some, this may seem insignificant, but for this mama, it was deeply meaningful. She wondered why her nonverbal autistic son would get out of the bathtub just to check where she was, then return to the water. Up until this point, she had never left him alone—she always stayed with him while he bathed.Continue reading “Healing Families”
Running the Race
My longtime mentor and teacher, Sandy with Sight Ministries at the Vineyard in Grafton, explained to me that the human experience is an event with spectators, where you are the only person on the field. There is nobody with you and nobody against you—it’s just you. Every person you cross paths with in your lifeContinue reading “Running the Race”
A cup of cold water
Jesus came to bring “The Way.” He walked through every step that we will walk through as humans. He loved, He laughed, He cried—and in the end, He followed the Father’s heart for humanity. Jesus came because The Way of love needed to be laid. There is so much in time and history that weContinue reading “A cup of cold water”
