Free Webinar: Dealing with Hurt
Join my mailing list and receive access to a free webinar on dealing with common hurtful experiences (betrayal, gaslighting, deception, manipulation, etc.)
God created us for connection and relationship - from the very beginning.
You can live a life that is thriving, fulfilling, and not ruled by your emotions and feelings.
You can build a deeper sense of connection with yourself, others, and God.
It begins with getting to know who God made you to be and then taking focused steps to build upon that foundation.
But let’s be honest, life get’s in the way…
❌ Our emotions get the best of us
❌ Our relationships are broken
❌ We’ve been hurt by others
❌ Intrusive thoughts have control
❌ We feel stuck or indecisive
❌ We compare our lives to others and feel like we don’t measure up
💪🏻 Are you ready to build the ability to bounce back from difficult emotions?
🫱🏽🫲🏻 Are you ready to build deeper relationships with yourself, others, and God?
🧭 I’ve walked this journey too, and I can help!
I grew up in a Christian home and spent my entire childhood going to church. I knew God and was following Jesus. But an event my senoir year of college threw all of that into question. I experienced an emotional and spiritual crisis that sent me into a tail spin. During that time I wrestled with immense anxiety and depression, mixed with a little religious OCD. It was a real cocktail of emotions, thoughts, and feelings.
The plan I had for my life crumbled around me. The relationships I had built over the last four years all began to fall apart. I truly felt like I was all alone.
I spent the next 4 years searching for something to help me. Looking for some way to get my feet back underneath me and get out of my own head. I thought I'd be fine if I just read my Bible more or prayed more.
And those things did help, but I felt like I was missing something. I felt like I had lots of head knowledge, but it wasn’t sinking into my heart. I knew a lot about God, but I didn’t feel like I had a genuine friendship or relationship with Him.
I knew in my head that He could help me, but I felt like my prayers were hitting the ceiling and never reaching him.
But that all changed when I began to learn about attachment theory, personality theory, mindfulness, emotional maturity, the importance of relationships, and well-worn paths to deeper spiritual growth and connection to God.
Don’t misunderstand me; I didn’t discover some hidden secret lost to the ages. But I did learn how to actually start using the tools that the Church has had in its toolbox for millennia, and they really began to make a difference.
As I began to walk this path, the truth about who God says I am began to take root. He did deep work in my life, healing hurts and wounds from the past; I found myself seeing others in a new light…the way He sees them.
And things have never been the same since.
I’m not perfect, and I still have days where it’s a bit of a struggle to manage my emotions well. It can still be hard to relate well to myself, others, and God. But I now have trusted tools in my toolbox that I can use to help me when those days come. I no longer feel like I’m at the mercy of my emotions, thoughts, and feelings.
And I want to help you do the same. I want to help you find the freedom and joy that I’ve found and help you walk the same path to deeper meaning, purpose, and fulfillment.
I want you to find freedom to flourish and thrive, just as God intended.
Are you ready?

Justin is awesome! I’ve been working with him for about 8 months now. Before I started coaching with Justin, I just found myself stuck. Struggling with an anxious heart, I had no sort of framework for boundaries, and it all left me exhausted. I knew what God said was true about me but I struggled to be able to live like it was true. If you struggle with any of those, or you want to start a path to developing emotionally healthy relationships and grow deeper relationship in your relationship with God, then Justin will be extremely helpful to you! I’m so grateful for Justin and being able to have this experience!

Justin's ability to break down complex challenges into manageable steps has been invaluable in helping me overcome obstacles and achieve personal milestones. What truly sets Justin apart is his genuine investment in his clients' well-being and growth. He doesn't just offer advice; he actively listens, asks thought-provoking questions, and provides unwavering support. His commitment to my journey was evident in the progress I've made under his guidance.
Looking back, my decision to work with Justin has been life-changing. The growth I have experienced, both spiritually and in my daily life, is a testament to his expertise and dedication. If you are seeking a coach who will walk alongside you, empower you to unlock your potential, and guide you towards meaningful transformation, I wholeheartedly recommend Justin.

Dr. Justin has really gone above and beyond for my son and I, so much so that I do not know where we would be had we not found him. My son suffers from extreme religious OCD and it can be debilitating at times. Dr. Justin treats my son as more than a client he treats him as a person that he genuinely cares about. This is because Dr. Justin genuinely does care. He also is nonjudgmental, personable, comforting and easy to talk to. I honestly do not have one single negative thing to say about my experience working with him. Thank you so much Dr. Justin for all that you do. You are surely making a difference in this world.

Justin is a fantastic coach and more importantly a fantastic person. I came to him in the beginning of this year seeking spiritual growth, advice, and counseling on how to pursue a Christ-centered life. Justin is extremely approachable and is an expert listener. He also has an uncanny ability to find meaning behind everything that you tell him. He has guided me through my relationship with the Lord in providing passages, books of the Bible, and outside resources. He has provided me with several lifelong practices that continue to influence my everyday life. He has also helped me with my relationship with my (now) fiance, providing Christ-centered advice on how to care for my significant other. I continue to meet with Justin and learn from and grow with him in his advice and guidance from the Lord.

I have truly loved working with Justin for about 7 months now. I was searching for a personal coach who could help me with some past and present struggles and providing support and empathy. Justin has a warm and caring approach and his strength is cutting through the "noise" of life and enabling me to focus on the good, the joy and the clarity of life. It was something that was deeply missing in my current situation. I am grateful to Justin for the time and dedication and for pushing me where I need it.

Justin has been my mindset mentor ever since I first found his book and met him. Through his inspiration and mentoring of me, I have seen a lot of changes in my life and he has helped me to understand why God created me and the purpose He has for my life. Through his mentoring of me, so many people in Kenya are now learning from his work as I carry his teachings into my work in the Kenyan prisons.

The PATH to Balance
The PATH to a life of balance, freedom, and flourishing requires awareness and intentionality. But if you walk the PATH, you will live a life of freedom and flourishing that you may have never thought possible. I guarantee that you'll feel more confident and more equipped to approach life from a position of leading it rather than letting it happen to you.
But best of all, you'll feel more confident that you're living life the way God designed you!
-
Purpose
Having a sense of purpose and meaning in life is foundational to freedom and flourishing. If you are alive today, you have a purpose and your life has meaning. Let's work together to identify it! Together, we’ll:
Explore your passions and how they intersect with the way God designed and gifted you.
Develop a clear plan for the type of life you are called to live and how to start making it happen.
-
Alignment
Part of living a life of freedom and flourishing is to know who God designed you to be and live in alignment with it. Our culture doesn’t prioritize self-reflection but it’s critical if you want to live life to the fullest. Together, we’ll:
Gain a better understanding of who you are and identify your core motivations and passions, and the lens through which you view the world.
Identify your Core Values to gain an understanding of what matters most to you and how you are, or are not, living in alignment.
Identify your strengths and how to leverage those to live a life that brings you energy rather than drains you.
Identify your spiritual gifts and how you can use them to further God’s glory in your life.
-
Togetherness
We were made to be in relationships with other people and a fulfilling and thriving life is incomplete without healthy relationships. Building on your self-awareness and your sense of purpose, this module will help you:
Connect with yourself: Understanding your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors and embrace self-compassion.
Connect with others: Build and nurture relationships that are meaningful and supportive. This includes family, friends, colleagues, and community. We’ll explore communication skills, empathy, and trust.
Connect with God: As Christians we know this connection represents an essential bond that provides guidance, strength, and purpose. We’ll explore ways to deepen this connection through prayer, meditation, and spiritual principles.
-
Hope
Even when we know ourselves, have a sense of purpose, and feel connected to others life still has a way of throwing curve balls at us. Even the best laid plans can be thrown off course. What do we do when that happens? Together, we’ll:
Learn how to develop a growth mindset to help you push through difficulty and adversity.
Learn how to build emotional resilience and bounce back from setbacks.
Practice relational skills that help you stay focused on being the person God wants you to be and enjoy the relationships that He has placed in your life.
