You've been carrying this long enough, it's time to set it down.
Experiential therapy, emotional healing and nature, in the peaceful hills of Tennessee.
Intensives Designed For You
Individual Intensive
You've pushed through, prayed through, maybe even talked it through, and yet something remains. A pattern you can't break. A wound that won't fully close. A version of yourself you haven't been able to reach yet. Step into the life you were actually made for.
You don't have to keep carrying what was never meant to be permanent.
Couples Intensive
Every marriage has a story. And sometimes that story gets stuck in a chapter neither of you wanted, conflict that cycles, distance that grows, wounds that never quite healed. You still love each other. But love alone hasn't been enough to find your way back.
Every marriage has hope when both hearts want to find their way home.
Group Intensive
There is something that happens in a room full of people who have decided to stop pretending, something that can't happen anywhere else. When one person's story touches another person's wound, healing moves through the whole group like a current. Someone else's breakthrough may become the key to your own.
Healing was never meant to happen alone.
You don't have to have it altogether to begin. You just have to be willing.

Hello, I am Kathy!
Licensed Professional Counselor · Certified Coach · Fellow Traveler
I know what it feels like to sit with pain you can't quite name, to push through, to pray through, and to wonder if something is fundamentally broken in you. It isn't. I've walked my own hard road, and it's precisely that journey that brought me here, to this land, to this work, and to you.
YOU ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH!
For fifteen years, I've had the privilege of walking alongside individuals, couples, and groups as they've found their way back to themselves, to each other, and to God. My team and I don't lead from a place of having all the answers. We lead from a place of having done our own deep work, with humility, compassion, and genuine care for every person who walks through our door.
You will be seen here. You will be safe here. And you will not be rushed.
Testimonials
WHAT PAST CLIENTS ARE SAYING:
“Life-altering experience!
Not long after working with Kathy, I realized the treasure I had stumbled upon and started telling all my friends about her! My cousin, her friend, and a few of my friends have now all gone to see Kathy, and the testimonies are consistently the same!
maddy
“After experiencing a personal intensive, I am achieving milestones with newfound confidence. I have worked with many therapists over the years, and Kathy is one of the most incredible healers I have ever worked with! From EMDR to Brain-spotting to merely actively listening, Kathy is one of the most talented, genuine, level-headed, and humble therapists I’ve had the privilege of working with.”
megan
"I shared with Kathy one of my deepest, darkest, shameful, ugly secrets, one I was sure would be met with disgust, but instead was met with compassion and wisdom. Exceptional! Kathy's wisdom and support reshaped my mindset. I am grateful for this experience."
Stephanie
These aren't exceptional stories. This is what becomes possible when the right space is created for healing.
Sometimes words aren't enough. Tyler and Melanie share in their own words.
Melanie and Tyler courageously opened up about one of the hardest seasons of their marraige. With honesty and vulnerability, they share how a 3-day couples intensive became a turning point, bringing them back to one another with hope, love and safety. Their story isn't about perfection, it's about possibility. About the real, beautiful hope that healing and reconnection can happen.

FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
We are not about religion, we are about relationship. There is a profound difference between the two, and we feel it deeply. Our foundation is built on love, grace, and the belief that every person deserves to be met exactly where they are, without judgment, without pressure, and without a checklist of beliefs they need to hold before healing is available to them. If faith is part of your journey we will honor it. If your relationship with God is complicated right now we will honor that too.
Not at all. What matters here is not where you've come from spiritually but where you want to go. We welcome people from all backgrounds and all places on their faith journey, including those who aren't sure where they stand right now. Healing doesn't require a denomination. It requires a willing heart, and if you have that, you belong here.
Yes, and we mean it sincerely. We never want cost to be the reason someone doesn't receive the healing they need. Through our foundation, Christian Counsel Associates, financial assistance is available for those who qualify. Applications are reviewed by our nonprofit board based on financial need and availability. If you'd like to give toward someone else's healing journey, donations are tax-deductible. Just reach out and we'll walk you through the process.
Most therapy asks you to talk about what happened. Our intensives help you actually experience healing from it, and that distinction changes everything. We combine evidence-based clinical methods like Brainspotting and experiential therapy with the kind of deep human care that most clinical settings simply don't have time for. Three uninterrupted days in a peaceful natural setting, with a small intimate group and a team that has done their own inner work. No rushing. No surface solutions. Just real, lasting change at the root.
Yes, our intensives are co-ed. We also offer dedicated all-women and all-men programming for those navigating sexual addiction and sexual betrayal — spaces designed with particular care and sensitivity for those specific journeys. If you're interested in those programs please reach out and we'll share what's available.
You are not only welcome here, you are specifically held in mind in everything we do. We understand that wounds from religious environments can run very deep, and we take that seriously. Nothing here is forced, pressured, or contingent on a particular belief. All exercises are voluntary. Your pace is honored. Our entire approach is built on the understanding that healing happens through safety and love, never through obligation or fear. You are allowed to arrive exactly as you are, with every complicated feeling intact. We will meet you there.
