Common Questions

  • Life coaching is the practice of providing people the necessary insight or encouragement to change their own lives or circumstances for the better. It can involve helping individuals discover what life path is best for them and how to move forward using tools like planning or goal-setting.

  • Christian life coaching involves combining life coaching principles with psychology and basic Christian theology to help people understand concepts like God’s forgiveness or compassion, their identity or why they are in God’s love.

  • I was accepted to The University of Texas at Austin to finish my degree in anthropology and psychology at the time of my near-death experience. I felt called to pastoral care, so I became a certified Christian life coach. I have since dedicated myself to the study of psychology, Christian theology, near-death experiences, spirituality, relationship coaching, grief care and more to help people better their own lives or have a healthy understanding of God.

  • Professional counseling revolves around the treatment of disorders or management of life issues through therapy. It can involve the use of therapeutic methods such as CBT, DBT, and EMDR, for instance, to help with trauma. If you are struggling with a life issue or need help with a disorder recognized in the DSM-5, please seek a professional counselor, psychologist, or psychiatrist who can help you.

  • Pastoral care is the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual care of an individual by someone within a spiritual community like a church meant to help someone through a time of crisis, grief, or other circumstance. It usually involves helping people come to terms with that they are going through and coming out on the other side with a healthier or more enlightened perspective.

Online Resources

  • I recommend books by Lindsay C. Gibson, PsyD on healing from Emotionally Immature Parents or Emotionally Immature People. Since our parents or caregivers were often our primary example of love in the world, healing from the effects of unhealthy parenting can help heal us in other ways as well.

  • Our relationships are a fundamental part of our lives and often involve a complex balance of love, friendship, healthy communication, respect, good boundaries, and more. I recommend resources by The Gottman Institute and The Center for Non-Violent Communication‍ by Marshall Rosenberg, PhD. The Gottman Institute, by Drs. John and Julie Gottman, provides research-based or evidence-based information on relationships and their common challenges.

  • Grief is the experience of profound loss in life. Grief can involve the loss of a loved one, but it can also involve the loss of a friend, home, job or other elements that define our lives. I recommend resources by Elisabeth Kubler Ross, one of the world’s leading experts in grief and near-death experiences. GriefShare groups can also be found in many churches across the country.

  • Since love is the fundamental nature of God and ourselves, it is not “God’s will” that an unloving circumstance occur. It is up to us to listen to our intuition to get ourselves out of an unloving circumstance. If you feel you are being abused by someone and would like to talk with someone immediately, you can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline.

  • Life on the other side is often full of tales of a God of Love and Light. I recommend teachers like Lorna Byrne and organizations like IANDS, NDERF, ACISTE, SAI, Spiritual-Experiences, Near-Death News, and Dr. Raymond Moody’s Life After Life for understanding the full spectrum of spiritual experiences and why love is what truly matters to God.

  • LGBQTQIA+ individuals and can have positive encounters with the God of Love and Light on the other side. I highly recommend research by Liz Dale, PhD to learn more about the spiritual experiences of gays and lesbians. She has written a book entitled Crossing Over and Coming Home. Christian Andreason is a prominent LGBTQIA+ experiencer who lives openly. You can read more of his experience of going to Heaven and others on near-death.com.

  • LGBTQIA+ individuals are at a special risk for suicide. Studies show there is a direct correlation between suicidality within the LGBTQIA+ community and religious beliefs. If you are on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum and are considering ending your life, please feel free to contact me, a licensed professional counselor, or someone at The Trevor Project for more immediate assistance. If you are considering ending your life for any reason, consider connecting with a trusted friend, contacting a trusted pastor, calling 988, or a seeking out a licensed professional counselor. Often times, talking with a compassionate person about what you’re going through can help ease the pain and give you the courage to move forward.

  • Community can be a wonderful thing as humans are hard-wired to be social beings. However, some groups are not healthy from within and can be what is called a high-control group. High-control groups are churches, communities or organizations that expect high loyalty to leadership or the group’s ideology. They often use tactics of overt or covert control to reinforce conformity to the group and/or leader. For more information on HCGs, I recommend Dr. Steven Hassan’s BITE Model of Authoritarian Control and the Influence Continuum.

  • God showed me when I first came back from my experience of going to Heaven that “negative emotions” (feelings based in fear instead of love) are actually stored in our spiritual bodies and not our souls. Our souls are made of pure love that comes from God. Books like The Emotion Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson and The Body Keeps the Score by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk highlight this phenomenon. Learning to release the “negative emotion” (an absence of truth) or trauma from within the body often takes counseling or learning to relax the mind, body, and spirit enough to release the emotion (that might feel like heaviness, hardness, or darkness). You can begin to release the emotion when you learn to refrain from engaging in it. You can also pray, meditate, use your spiritual authority in Christ or ask God and the angels to help you release any emotion which is not beneficial to you.
