Our Journey Together
We’re Melinda and Gary, and for over 24 years, we’ve shared a life filled with love, growth, and purpose. We’ve also been blessed to raise three incredible sons. We bring our combined professional and personal experience to help others find their unique identity in Christ.

Our mission is simple: we want to help people find the healing and answers they seek by drawing from the ancient wisdom of the Church Fathers, alongside modern therapeutic practices.
Our personal and professional journey has led us to a deep passion for helping others improve their mental and spiritual health, grounded in the timeless wisdom of the ancient Christian faith.
Melinda:
Bridging Mind and Spirit
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I specialize in Transformational EMDR™ and trauma therapy within the context of Christian faith. My work is dedicated to helping individuals heal and grow at the intersection of mental and spiritual health. Over the years, I’ve seen many people struggle with how to integrate their mental health with their spiritual beliefs, and that’s where my heart lies—helping others find a path that honors both. I’ve written a manuscript that offers a framework for healing, rooted in the writings of the Church Fathers and supported by modern science. It’s based on the belief that the Church is a Hospital for our mental and spiritual well-being. I’m excited to share this work and hope it will be published soon.
Gary:
Leadership and Purpose
After retiring from a fulfilling career as an Air Force colonel, I transitioned into business leadership, where I’m now focused on helping teams achieve excellence and mission success. I’ve always been drawn to creating cohesive, dynamic teams, and that drive extends into our shared mission. I’m passionate about helping others lead purposeful, fulfilling lives, and I use my experiences in leadership and strategic thinking to support people on their own journeys of growth and healing.
Our Mission:
Healing, Leadership, and Purpose
Our mission is simple: we want to help people find the healing and answers they seek by drawing from the ancient wisdom of the Church Fathers, alongside modern therapeutic practices and leadership training. We believe that mental and spiritual health should go hand in hand, and we are here to guide you on that path. Whether through individual consultations, group sessions, or upcoming speaking engagements, we aim to create a community where healing is not only possible but encouraged.
