About Me

Jerra knows what it means to have dreams destroyed and goals detoured. She also knows how sacred help trumps self help in discovering God's purpose and design for every person's life and that Scripture provides the pathway to becoming your best self. Her goal is to share God's transforming grace in a way that is meaningful and fulfilling to your life so that you can recover from the bumps, bruises, and bang ups to find satisfaction and fulfillment in a life well lived.

Coaching with me

How I like to coach

Jerra's coaching style is Christ centered, theologically sound, and clinically informed. She applies truth with grace, compassion, and encouragement.

Placing a high value on the client's time, she conducts a thorough intake process, which produces an accurate assessment, and results in direct and respectful guidance and accountability that leads to action that produces the desired change/results. 

Offerings

Please feel free to visit my shop to see the details of my offerings.

Coaching

Life Recovery Coaching: Biblical counseling that addresses the things we get hung-up on in life: abuse, addictions (substances and behaviors) depression, toxic relationships, divorce, blending families, grief, and more.

Spiritual Coaching: Addresses core values and beliefs that provide the basis for how we think of self and how we relate to others. When life seems to be heading off the rails, it is important to identify what is right and what is wrong with the foundations of our thinking. Once misperceptions, false beliefs, and faulty values are discovered, it is important to replace them with God's truth that results in thinking correctly and operating in a manner that produces fruitfulness and blessing to self and others.

Empowerment Coaching: Learning to become the beautiful person God designed you to be begins with discovering how you were designed to SHINE through your individuality and life experience. This is where  life's difficulties are transformed from liabilities to strengths, and a person becomes empowered to move forward and accomplish the impossible rather than maintaining the mundane life of low expectations.
