Jesus Follower · Trauma-Informed Coach · Speaker & Teacher

I’m passionate about sharing my story with vulnerability and truth, helping people experience the hope and healing of Jesus. Whether I’m speaking to a room of women, a church congregation, or a ministry team, my desire is always the same: to create a space where people feel seen, heard, and drawn closer to God.

Over the years, I’ve spoken at women’s events, church retreats, small groups, and camps. I’ve also led a thriving monthly women’s ministry and been featured on a number of podcasts as both a guest and co-host.

My speaking style combines personal storytelling, biblical truth, and trauma-informed insight—equipping the Church to walk with the wounded in grace and truth.

I would be honored to speak at your event or join you on your podcast. Whether you’re looking for a keynote speaker, workshop facilitator, or someone to lead a training session, I offer customized, trauma-informed messages that are biblically grounded and compassionately delivered.

Words from Teresa…

I have a deep passion and love for sharing my story with vulnerability and authenticity. I love speaking at events and seeing God move in miraculous ways. I have spoken at numerous events, including women’s events, church camps, small groups, and ran a ministry where I shared monthly messages to a well attended group of women. I have also been a guest of a number of podcasts and co-hosted as well.
