Client Testimonials

“I knew there had to be more to life than lurching from one crisis to the next without time to recover.

“Understanding my nervous system a bit better has opened a door of hope that my future can be different from the past few stress-filled years. I have learned that I'm not too broken to fix. I'm only at the start of this journey but from what I've tasted in the 8 weeks of the Healing Foundations Class, I want to continue to pursue what I've learned, in order to gain greater freedom, fresh joy and strength to live well.”

“I feel like a new person...

“I feel like I have conquered my all-consuming anxiety & overwhelm. I have gained so much space and awareness of my state that drives my thoughts. I see myself for who I really am and see all of the protection behaviors I have adopted to cope that have served me once, but are no longer serving me. The best way to describe what I have gained is space. In only this short amount of time, I feel like a new person.”

“Katie is amazing. She is genuinely invested in me. Sometimes she would say things in our sessions that makes SO MUCH SENSE if you knew me my whole life and it is only during 12 weeks that she puts it all together on my behalf. I just felt so safe with her..”

“I love Katie. It's a gift to feel truly understood, validated, and safe. She is that for me.”

“It really feels like Katie is in my corner. She knows me so well and that is so comforting to know I am being taken care of in such an important way.”

“Not only did Katie help me resolve some really traumatic things in my life…. But along side that she used the most gentle and meaningful somatic releases during them. I still have trouble putting into words the feelings during and after these sessions and just the magnitude of the weight I felt lifted off of me and my life as a result of working with her. I really truly believe Katie has helped me save my life and changed the trajectory of it for the better, without a doubt!”

“These 8 weeks have transformed my life!

“This program was instrumental in me understanding how/why I was feeling the way that I was and validated that there was nothing wrong with me as a person... I had unhealed trauma that I could unlearn the responses that had kept me safe for 30+ years. While it also taught me that this won't be healed overnight... These 8 weeks have transformed my life! I can't wait to slowly and surely heal these responses through the Transformation package and save my own life from this trauma stuck in my body and make my marriage a happier and healthier place for us to be in.”

“This course changed my life. I never wanted it to be over.

Trying to put words to answer this makes me teary. The idea of a group setting, being vulnerable with strangers and a coach and being on video, no thanks!! And it was a significant investment. But my desperation for relief was somehow greater than all my fears. This course changed my life. I never wanted it to be over. I wish I could spend every week with these ladies, with Cortney and Joanna. It’s difficult to even articulate honestly. The concepts and teachings were so foreign to me and yet rocked my world. I experienced transformation in my thinking, in my body, in some past experiences, and in community. The healing from the group sessions were such a sweet unexpected surprise. But the compassion and brave vulnerability was life giving.”

“I couldn’t be more grateful for Michelle! I am so excited to continue with her. Being virtual I was wondering how that would feel with therapy but she literally makes me feel like she’s in the room with me. I pray one day I can hug her in person!”

“Michelle was really amazing. I am excited to continue to work with her. Digging deep didn't always come easy for me and she really pushed me to understand the work we are doing and open up.”

“Michelle is great. She confidently and gently guides you through the session and some very heavy/intense work. She emits a wonderful balance of work and encouragement.”

“It has made me realize that it’s not too late to heal.

“The Healing Foundations Class gave me awareness, safety, hope, understanding and relief. It has made me realize that it’s not too late to heal and that my healing will have a profound effect on EVERY aspect in my life but most importantly my children!!! It’s provided me tools to help me not be the angry explosive person I once was. I’m able to slow down and see and handle situations differently. It really has just given me so much hope and excitement!!”

“I don't become so wrapped up in anxiety anymore...

“This program has literally given me the foundation I need to understand my body and bring awareness to my body and trauma. I don't become so wrapped up in anxiety anymore because I'm able to step back and say, ‘Hey, wait a minute. I know what's going on right now. I know why my body is responding in this way, and it makes so much sense! My body is doing an amazing job at keeping me safe.’”

“After taking this course with Cortney and Katie I finally believe that I make sense! It's hard to put it into words how powerful this has been for me. It has truly changed my life in every aspect and in every area. I struggled with confidence my whole life... feeling powerless to operate comfortably. After taking this class I now know why I have these feelings and how to work with them.”

“The Healing Foundations Class has changed my life for the better. It has given me the knowledge to understand why I act/think the way I do, what I can do about it, and how I can heal moving forward. Most importantly it has allowed me to be the generation cycle breaker for my kids and have a stronger relationship with my husband and MYSELF!”

“I’ve learned that I no longer need to simply survive.

“I can heal the ‘broken’ feelings inside of me and become the best version of myself. I have learned that I and my family deserve this version of me. I have already begun to see the ripple effects of my healing on my marriage and my husband as a person.”

“The Healing Foundations Class has helped me look at healing from a completely different perspective.

I have seen therapists and spiritual directors for the past 9 years off and on trying to address it from a cognitive perspective, a spiritual perspective, literally any perspective to help! I’ve always put so much pressure on myself in these programs to heal, to white knuckle through it. Trying to hurry the process. In this course I have learned to trust and appreciate my nervous system, my body and the way it wants to heal.”

“Joanna is amazing at this work. I have had numerous counselors and therapists and no one can hone in, bring clarity and pin-point things for me like she can. She doesn't answer for me or give suggestions unless I ask for help, so it really feels like I'm the one doing the work. She is so full of the Holy Spirit and I feel like she really follows his leading in our calls.”

“Joanna was kind, caring and I found it really incredible how much she could see in me and identify. It was helpful as I often was so disconnected that I couldn’t see or identify what was going on. The kind encouraging words she spoke over me were healing.”

“She is so safe, calming and holds so much space. I adore Joanna & know that we would be great friends in the flesh!”

“The Healing Foundations Class was definitely worth my investment.

“I knew I needed this for myself, my family, and the future generation.”

“I am a classic ‘consumer’ of all things self-help without actually implementing the knowledge.”

“This program was the first time I truly had a game plan/plan of action for how to make the changes.”
