Your Counselor and Life Coach

As a mental health advocate, I founded A Healing Direction out of my own experience as a certified mental health worker who saw first hand how traditional systems can fail people in their most difficult moments.

I am dedicated to uncovering the root of challenges and providing practical, compassionate guidance that leads to lasting change. 

Whether you are working through trauma, conflict, or long-standing pain, my focus is on empowerment and growth.

As a certified life coach and ordained minister, I have served both secular and Christian communities. My approach blends holistic and practical principles providing a safe space where you can discover personal solutions for challenges within yourself,  relationships, parenting, and marriage.

With a focus on individual guidance, couples support, family counseling, and unification solutions, my goal is to walk alongside you so your journey toward healing and a new direction becomes both possible and sustainable.

Personalized Care & Holistic Techniques

I tailor each session to each persons individual needs using holistic practices and intuitive tools for growth. My gentle, practical approach supports trauma recovery and life's challenges, focusing on your strengths and goals.

Disability & Education Advocate

I draw from years of advocating for children with special needs , including the autism spectrum. I have personal and professional knowledge having raised my own into successful, independent adults. With 1 in 32 now born on the spectrum it doesn't have to be scary anymore, you have an ally and supporter in me.

I work closely with parents to help them better understand how to navigate the obstacles ahead, and mitigate situations that can make you feel helpless and alone.

I have taught teachers to better understand high-functioning autism in the classroom, served on the Student Health Action Coalition, and actively participated in ARD and 504 meetings to ensure families' rights are upheld. I have also acted as a surrogate parent for children in state care, making educational decisions that protect their opportunities. These experiences allow me to bring both personal insight and professional dedication to the individuals and families I now serve.

Crisis Incident Stress Debriefing & Advocacy

I support first responders and communities by helping them process trauma, build resilience, and find hope after critical incidents. With experience investigating child abuse in high profile media cases, fatalities, and sex trafficking, I provide compassionate guidance so no one faces life's hardest moments alone. I have been honored to partner with public officials in leading crisis incident stress debriefings during major tragedies, including the Uvalde school shootings and the Texas Floods. These experiences allow me to walk alongside those on the front lines, ensuring they have a safe place to get their feelings heard, and receive the care, clarity, and support needed for recovery and strength.

What People Say

GE
Thank you for today! I ALMOST forgot how much I loved therapy, especially when it’s done in the right way. The only therapist to ever help me was the one I did the Splankna therapy with. You’re hands down the best talk therapist I’ve ever worked with. Thank you for listening, your patience, getting to the root core/cause of things, voicing thoughts when they’re needed and with the correct intention, AND giving ACTUAL action steps to help us proceed. Therapy done with God is therapy done right. Thank you for stepping out in faith and using the gifts He’s gifted you with 💕

I have sincere gratitude to Wendi as she helped me a lot when I tragically lost a family member. She understood the difficult time I was going through and was a tremendous help and comfort with her gift of healing through our sessions. Wendi was so honest and genuine. Her gifts were evident with the things she brought to my awareness as we spoke about the tragedy. She selflessly walked me through the grieving process, helping me come to terms with my emotions.   Thank you Wendi for helping me to move on with closure, knowing that my loved one lives on with our Savior.

Wendi was a God send to our family. Wendi immediately understood the unique challenges with my daughter, recognized her needs, and introducing us to what Autism in young adults looks like. We were able to get her properly diagnosed, as Wendi walked us through that process, found solutions, and worked with her to implement change. She was a tremendous resource and source of constant encouragement! We had paid for many professional services to find help for our daughter in the past, no one saw what she did. Her gift of insight and intuition helped our family but the care we received from Wendi has been, by far,
