*I am on sabbatical until March 2026 to work on resources to help more people. This includes the Promise Hill podcast and soul-care guides. Will you join me? I would be honored. Listen here.
About you first: This site is for you. Your life. Your journey.
I am so glad you are here.
At Redeemedhopeaz.com you will find guidance on finding rest and relationship with God like David had in Psalm 23.
About me​
My work was shaped by a turning point in 2009, when I encountered God in a way that reached beyond the limits of traditional therapy. Emotional burdens that had long remained unresolved were healed, leading to both personal freedom and a clear shift in my professional direction.
​
That experience led me to transition from secular psychotherapy into Christian counseling, grounding my work in the living Word of God while integrating nearly a decade of clinical experience. I came to understand healing as both relational and transformative—deeply rooted in Scripture and lived experience.
​
This space exists for those seeking thoughtful, faith-centered healing that integrates emotional, spiritual, and holistic care. I share what I have learned through training, practice, and personal healing to support clarity, freedom, and a deeper connection with God.
An essential aspect of my approach is the belief that God heals today. While coping strategies have value, my work is oriented toward restoration and transformation rather than lifelong management alone.
​​
What I Do
​I am a former psychotherapist, now practicing as a Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counselor, with over 22 years in the counseling field. While psychotherapy is valuable, it does not always reach underlying root issues or address the spiritual dimensions essential to lasting healing.
​
While I am not working with new clients until March 2026, I am creating content that I hope will be a support to you. This includes a podcast (Promise Hill) as well as being a co-host for the Wyatt Matters radio and podcast show and hopefully classes down the road. I have written a few books for counseling support as well.
I specialize in working with individuals whose healing has stalled despite insight, effort, or
effective tools. Often, clients understand what to do but find themselves unable to apply
it. Something beneath the surface is impeding progress.
​
That barrier is frequently an unexamined core belief, a spiritual dimension requiring attention, or a wounded internal experience formed earlier in life. When these underlying issues are addressed and healed, forward movement becomes possible, and therapeutic tools can then be used effectively to support healthier patterns and sustained change.
But what about God?
Above all, what I hope you come to understand is this: God’s love for you is unwavering, regardless of where you find yourself in life. If that truth feels difficult to trust, my book may serve as a quiet companion—reflecting on how God met and loved women throughout Scripture, many of whom struggled deeply and felt far from Him, much like we do.
​
A Note on Belief
My work is grounded in the Christian faith. I believe in God the Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit as the Trinity, and that Scripture is the inspired Word of God.
​
I hold deep respect for the saints and faithful voices who came before us—those who learned to recognize God not only in grandeur but also in stillness and attentiveness.
The writings and practices of St. Ignatius of Loyola, particularly the Examen, have been especially formative in my spiritual life, alongside practices such as Anglican prayer beads and Lectio Divina.
These traditions remind us that God has made many prayer pathways to connect to Himself. Prayer is not one-size-fits-all; it is meant to be lived and experienced in ways that resonate deeply, personally, and powerfully with each soul and in God's design within you.
​​
Within my clinical and pastoral work, several core convictions guide the healing process:
​
-
Jesus continues to heal emotional wounds today
​ (Isaiah 61:1–3; Luke 4:18)
-
The Holy Spirit dwells within those who receive Christ
​ (2 Corinthians 1:21–22; Acts 2:38)
-
God speaks personally to His people and invites a relationship
(John 10:27–30) -
We are invited to bring our burdens to Jesus
(Matthew 11:28–30) -
Transformation and healing involve the renewal of the mind
(Romans 12:1–2)
​​
These truths shape how emotional healing unfolds in this practice—always with God leading.
​
My hope is that you find what you are seeking here, or at the very least, this site is a springboard to finding the balm to heal inner wounds.
​
And if you feel a gentle invitation to explore further, you are welcome to do so—at your own pace.​
You do not have to walk this path alone.
