If trauma has shaken your sense of self, your marriage, or your daily peace, you’re not broken—you’re wounded, and wounds can heal. Spence’s True North exists to guide that healing with a Trauma-Informed Life Coach approach, specialized PTSD Recovery for Veterans, grace-filled Christian Marriage Counseling, restorative Veteran Trauma Retreats, and practical CBT Coaching for Anxiety.
A Different Kind of Coaching: Safe, Systematic, and Spiritual When You Want It
Traditional talk therapy can feel intimidating or slow. Our trauma-informed coaching model blends clinical insight with coaching momentum:
- Safety First: We regulate the nervous system before revisiting hard memories.
- Action + Insight: Every session ends with a simple practice you can use immediately.
- Whole-Person Focus: Mind, body, and spirit matter. Faith elements are available by request.
- Collaborative Plans: You help set the pace, goals, and guardrails.
PTSD Recovery for Veterans: Mission-Focused Healing
You followed orders, carried weight civilians can’t imagine, and came home with invisible shrapnel. Our PTSD Recovery for Veterans program respects the culture of service while helping you rebuild:
- Structured cognitive tools to quiet flashbacks and intrusive thoughts
- Somatic grounding to reduce hypervigilance and sleep disruption
- Moral injury processing in a judgment-free space
- Peer options—because healing accelerates in trusted brotherhood/sisterhood
Veteran Trauma Retreat: Step Out to Step Back In
When day-to-day life keeps triggering your stress response, a short, intensive reset can change the trajectory. Our Veteran Trauma Retreat provides:
- Guided workshops for processing trauma stories safely
- Breathwork, nature immersion, and guided prayer for nervous system reset
- Confidential group circles that honor both strength and vulnerability
- Post-retreat integration sessions to cement gains at home
Christian Marriage Counseling: Rebuilding on Rock, Not Sand
Trauma doesn’t stay in one person—it ripples into relationships. Our Christian Marriage Counseling track weaves biblical principles with modern communication science:
- Conflict de-escalation skills rooted in empathy and active listening
- Forgiveness frameworks that move beyond “sorry” to true repair
- Healthy boundaries that protect closeness instead of creating distance
- Spiritual practices—shared prayer, devotion, service—that reconnect hearts
CBT Coaching for Anxiety: Rewire Thought Patterns, Reclaim Your Day
Anxiety thrives on unchecked thoughts. CBT Coaching for Anxiety teaches you to spot and swap the stories anxiety tells:
- Identify distortions (catastrophizing, mind-reading, all-or-nothing thinking)
- Build graded exposure plans so fear shrinks session by session
- Create stabilizing routines—sleep, movement, reflection—that keep anxiety in check
- Track wins with simple worksheets so you see momentum, not just “feel” it
