My mission is to help you see your worth and walk with you on the path to healing.

Every. Single. Step of the way.

Hey there! I’m Ciera. I can’t wait to get to know you more, but I’ll tell you a little about me first. I’ve been married to my incredible husband since 2013 and together we have three beautiful babies. I love nature and the outdoors; I can’t get enough of the mountains and forest! My favorite thing to do with my family is camp in the mountains and create amazing and adventurous memories. I also love to play softball and play regularly between May and October every year. My husband and I also own our own Non-Profit to help combat bullying among the youth in our area. If I’m not in the mountains or at the softball fields, you can usually find me cheering on my kids in their many sports and activities.

I received my Bachelor’s degree in Marriage and Family Studies in 2017 and, after feeling empowered on my own healing journey, in 2021 I decided to further my expertise and expand my education to include trauma recovery; I became a Certified Trauma Recovery Coach in 2022. Since then, I have participated in many forms of continuing education and have also received training in Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS or parts work) and narcissistic abuse. In 2024 I received further education and training and currently practice as a Trauma Care Practitioner.

I realized I could turn what once were weaknesses into strengths by giving new life to others whose struggles mirror my own simply by offering my vulnerable self to walk alongside them and coach them through their own healing journey.

I work with many different types of trauma. I have helped clients heal from childhood abuse, spiritual abuse, domestic violence, and more.

My goal is to empower others to find their voice and shine the light that has always been within them.

Through my healing journey, I have come to choose myself and stop trying to earn acceptance from others through my appearance and performance. I began a journey toward the truth of who I am and what I was created to fulfill with my time on Earth.

MY RECOVERY

Looking in the mirror at myself, all I could see was pain.

All I could feel was the crushing weight of fear and shame that controlled my world. 

No matter how big the smile that I was able to muster up throughout the days, I knew what hid behind it. I could see it in my tired eyes.

I was starting to wonder if I’d ever get back to the “old me”; it was hard to remember who she even was… or used to be, for that matter. 

It had been about 12 years since I had last seen her. I missed her. I longed to rediscover her. She seemed so distant from where I was currently - standing in my bathroom with tears running down my face. 

How did I get here?

This question would lead me to all of the answers I was currently seeking.

Asking myself these hard questions and recognizing the pain and heartache I was experiencing is what catapulted my broken self onto a path of healing and recovery.

I started taking baby steps toward recovery around 2015. That was when I realized how much my marriage was being affected by an abusive relationship I was in a couple of years prior to meeting my husband. 

I didn’t know it then, but I experienced emotional, verbal, and spiritual abuse while I was with that person. Those two years completely shredded every ounce of self-esteem I ever possessed. My ways of thinking about myself and the world around me were severely altered in the worst ways. I hated and thought very little of myself.

I was able to do quite a lot of healing work on my own over the span of about 6 years. With the help and support of my husband, I discovered and worked through many triggers. However, I ultimately realized that I could not complete my healing journey on my own. I knew I needed more in order to undo the deep wounds from the trauma I experienced and found professional help myself.

Toward the end of 2021, I took a leap and took a chance on myself. I signed up to become a Trauma Recovery Coach. I knew through this course, not only would I learn skills that I could use to pass on to others, but I would also be able to take further steps to heal myself.

My healing journey has been messy, complicated, incredibly hard, and almost unbearable at times. But as I further approach a place of true healing, and as I have learned to once again love myself, I can say that it’s also been full of beautiful, wonderful, life-changing moments that are almost impossible to put into words.

I can confidently say that I have found the “old me”.

She’s pretty badass

and I’d missed her a lot. 

Stepping back into my true authentic self has been incredibly freeing. I want you to feel this too.

I know recovery can seem overwhelming, scary, and daunting, but know this - you are worthy and deserving of every good thing life has to offer. 

My mission is to help you see that in yourself and walk the path to healing with you every single step of the way.
