What our clients are saying

I came in feeling anxious and unsure, but coaching helped me focus on the Lord and be more honest with myself. The one-on-one connection and faith-based encouragement made all the difference. I highly recommend the Abide coaching model as a powerful way to reset your focus and walk with more purpose.

–Anita

My life felt frustrating, especially dealing with ongoing family conflict. Coaching gave me space to express myself honestly, even as things with my daughter remained tense. It’s still early, but I’ve already recommended Abide to others. If you’re thinking about–just do it.

–Theresa

I was stuck, emotionally numb and impulsive. Even though I’d tried applying therapies I had learned on my own, I couldn’t move forward. Coaching gave me clarity about the roots of my emotions and tools to start changing my reactions. Absolutely worth it if you’re looking for compassionate, Christ-centered guidance.

–Robert
