Strengthening Marriage Through Covenant Connections

We understand that trauma doesn’t just impact the individual; it ripples into marriage, intimacy, communication, and even faith. Past hurts, childhood wounds, betrayal, abuse, or even the stress of life’s seasons can quietly shape the way couples connect.

But there is hope, and healing is possible. With Christ as the foundation and evidence-based trauma therapy integrated into our marriage work, we help couples move from surviving to thriving.

How Trauma Shows Up in Marriage

Trauma can affect:

  • Communication-cycles of withdrawal, conflict, or shutdown

  • Intimacy-feeling distant, unsafe, or disconnected physically and emotionally

  • Trust-difficulty relying on one another or letting go of hypervigilance

  • Spiritual Connection-struggling to experience God’s peace together

  • Daily Stress Response-living in “fight, flight, or freeze” instead of calm connection

Our Approach to Trauma

We bring a unique combination of clinical trauma expertise, faith-based marriage coaching, and embodied healing practices to your marriage and healing journey.

  • Christ at the Center

    We believe that true healing flows from God’s presence, grace, and redemptive work. Scripture, prayer, and spiritual encouragement are integrated throughout our process

  • Evidence-based Trauma Therapy

    With training in approaches like Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga (TCTSY), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and somatic awareness practices, we create safe pathways for the body and mind to release trauma.

Body + Spirit Integration

Trauma often lives in the body long after the event has passed. We use gentle, choice-based somatic practices that honor the body while keeping Christ at the center of healing.
