Fatigue Recovery is Complicated
Coaching Can Help
Recovering your energy, growing your ability to get into life instead of watching from the sidelines is a truly life changing experience! It seems simple enough, just do what others do every day but fatigue makes living complicated and difficult.
Making the courageous choice to do something to get better is a critical first step! But what next? Fatigue usually has multiple interconnected causes and triggers. Finding the solution can feel like trying to put together a large puzzle without being able to recognize all the pieces. Confusing. Difficult. Overwhelming. Lonely.
Here are three ways Christian Fatigue Coaching can help.
Reduce Overwhelm & Increase Clarity
With so many pieces contributing to the problem of severe or chronic fatigue it can very hard to know where to start or what to do next. It can feel so overwhelming you feel stuck and unable to do anything to improve. I can help you identify a good place to start and what can be dealt with later so you aren't left trying to fix all possible problems at once. As you progress, we can identify which potential next steps you are ready to tackle and which are likely to give you meaningful results.
Increase Hope & Motivation
Recovering and improving your energy is frequently a long journey and can often leave you discouraged and hopeless, (which of course drains even more of your energy). By discovering unnoticed progress, developing a sense of togetherness, and learning more of God's design for your recovery, it can be easier to keep going or continue again after a set back. With so few who understand, it can feel you are in a battle all on your own. I can help you discover you are not.
Discover Meaning & Purpose
It's common and easily understandable to wonder, "Why me?", "Why should I have to struggle so hard?", "What is the point?" or "What did I do to deserve this?" It can feel you got sucked into a war you didn't start, don't want, and has no point or purpose. Recognizing or building a purpose in the middle of such difficulty is hard especially early on. Still, my own experiences discovering God always has a plan and purpose have often been a guide for clients finding their own meaning in their struggle.

What to expect working with me...
Working with me is different in several ways.
First, I prioritize healing and finding solutions over judging or finding fault. I have made many mistakes in my life and I am free of shame and guilt only because God has forgiven me and helped me to learn methods to bring peace to my mind and body. I have no reason to find fault in any experience you may have had. I, like you, am a sinner saved by grace.
As we walk through the coaching process, I often use reminders of God's promises to you and the infinite value he placed on you even when you are at your very worst. If you find it helpful we can start each session with prayer. (honestly, I am often praying before and silently during a session for God's wisdom even if we don't pray together)
During each session we work together, I try to go far enough into the issue bothering you to help you get meaningful felt improvements by the end of the session. Often you'll get to a felt sense of peace and completeness with at least part of the problem by the end of the session. That means I don't rush our sessions. A session with me is often one hour to one and half hours. I give you my best possible effort to make each session truly count.
I frequently, but not exclusively, use Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) during our sessions as a way to get to and heal the emotional roots of the problems. It is one of the fastest ways to make peace with your past but it is unlikely you will gain the full benefit of coaching in just one session so I intentionally set my prices to make multi session packages more cost effective to give you the best chance of permanent life improving change!
What clients have experienced...
I contacted Steven because my anxiety was out of control. Years of bullying at school and then in the workplace, feeling isolated and alone, two relationship breakups and heavy drinking caused me to have a complete nervous breakdown . I was having sleepless nights, panic attacks, depression - the whole package. I ended up having to leave my job and realized physically and mentally I was totally unable to work.
The first thing I liked about Steven and what led me to contact him was the fact he was a Christian. I am a strong Christian but with all that was going on I was struggling to live my beliefs. I approached my first session with anxiety - I didn’t really know what to expect, but Steven really understood.
Steven has really been a key part of my recovery process. After working with Steven for some months I have improved dramatically. He has helped me with the best way to get back to work, helped strengthen my faith in God, and rewrite the memories of years of emotional trauma so they no longer cause me stress, anxiety or depression.
I now use the techniques he has taught me every day, as an essential part of my recovery process in view of living the life God has planned for me, Stress Free!”
Laurence's Experiance
I contacted Steven because I couldn't seem to get free from my anxiety. I found myself, a mom of three, approaching 40 years old, watching my health decline because of my ongoing fear I lived with everyday. My emotional intensity was disproportionate to the situations I was facing and I was unintentionally hurting my relationships with my husband and kids. Steven was a last resort for me. I had prayed so much about this issue and had gotten counseling for years, but nothing seemed to lighten the intensity of how I felt whenever something reminded me of the past trauma. I was embarrassed at how debilitating my anxiety had become.
When I talked to Steven, I didn't even know how to put into words what the issue really was. Steven was so easy to talk to - I didn't feel any judgement from him. He was able to ask questions to get to the real issue. It took courage to open up about my most vulnerable issue, but he met me with incredible compassion and God's grace. I'm normally resistant when anyone tries to impose change on me, but His approach was so gentle that the wisdom he shared didn't feel threatening at all.
Honestly, I didn't expect the EFT Steven used to make much of a difference, but I thought it was worth a try. I couldn't believe the way it was able to diffuse the intensity of my anxiety. Since the sessions, I've been amazed to have situations come up that used to fill me with fear and send me into a downward spiral, now pass by without any drama. It feels like trying to light a fire cracker that's already gone off, there's just no power behind it any more. I'm so thankful to be free and living in peace now.
