Support & resources with Rachel
It’s my honor to walk alongside you on your grief and healing journey, offering peace, purpose, and perseverance. Together, we’ll create the safe space you’ve been longing for—one where your grief is seen, your heart is understood, and healing is nurtured. You don’t have to navigate this alone—I’m here for you.
As Christians, we are called to grieve differently, with hope. Scripture reminds us in 1 Thessalonians 4:13 (NIV):
"Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope."
Be encouraged, my friend; our grief is not without meaning or hope. “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18 - NIV). Galatians 6:2 calls us to “carry each other’s burdens,” highlighting the importance of seeking healthy, faith-filled support.
“And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.”
– Romans 8:27-28 (NIV)
Whether you are mourning the loss of your beloved pet, navigating a life-threatening diagnosis, facing job loss, a drastic relationship change, or another significant challenge, your pain and struggles are real. Together, we’ll honor your unique journey with faith-filled conversations that offer healing, comfort, and hope. Whatever season of loss or change you are facing, peace and purpose await you.
Sweet & Kind Words from Clients
"Rachel genuinely cares and listens to what's underneath my disappointment, sadness, and grief.
She understands in a way that feels peaceful and healing to my heart.
Through her support and guidance, I learned that God was inviting me to learn how to honor my pain while stepping into His promises.
Rachel's faith-filled coaching gave me the courage to believe that healing isn't just for other people—it's part of God's plan for me."
~ Tiffany
"After losing my heart dog to a tragic medical wrongdoing, I thought I'd never feel the kind of purpose again that comes with being a devoted pet parent.
Rachel didn't offer quick fixes or empty words—she walked with me through the valley of my grief, anger, and confusion, always pointing me back to the comfort of God's Word.
Instead of being weighed down by my justified resentments, she taught me that it's ok to let God be our biggest vindicator and focus on what I can control instead of the uncontrollable.
Because she invited and encouraged me to consider things from God's Word and His perspective, I now have the heart space to honor my beloved Max by making a change for Max's legacy. Now that's justice!
And by the way, her book is a must-have!"
~ Heather
"Rachel has a way of seeing deep within your heart, even when it feels broken beyond repair.
She helped me find meaning and perseverance in my pain and reminded me that my story isn't over, but it's unfolding new chapters and Divine assignments.
Through her compassion and care, I'm learning to live one day at a time and to have a deeper connection to God's purpose for my life."
~ Michael
