Welcome

Y our relationships shape your life. Let's help you make them stronger.

Whether you’re struggling to reconnect with your spouse, understand your child, heal from painful experiences, or find your way forward, you deserve more than a place to talk.

At House of Healing, our therapists help individuals, couples, and families understand the patterns keeping them stuck and develop practical skills for meaningful change.

  • Serving Medford, Southern Oregon, and clients throughout Oregon through eligible telehealth services.

Why House of Healing?

E xceptional care doesn’t happen by accident. It’s built by intention.

Your mental health is too important to leave to chance.

Finding a therapist is one thing. Finding a practice that has intentionally invested in every aspect of your care is another.

When you seek therapy, you’re trusting someone with your mental health, your relationships, your family, and some of the most personal parts of your life.

We believe that trust deserves more than an available appointment.

It deserves thoughtful therapist matching. Professionals committed to continued development. A clear understanding of your treatment. Meaningful goals. And a professional environment where your experience matters.

That’s why we built House of Healing differently.

We believe the quality of mental health care should not depend solely on the individual therapist you happen to see. It should also be supported by the standards, training, leadership, and systems of the organization behind them.

We’ve intentionally built House of Healing around that responsibility.

Because you deserve more than access to therapy. You deserve a practice built around the quality of your care.

The House of Healing Standard

W e didn’t build House of Healing to simply offer appointments.

We built it around what we believe people should be able to expect from their mental health care.

We consider your needs, preferences, and clinician qualifications when helping you explore an appropriate match.

We don’t simply fill appointments. We consider who is right for your care.

B ecause the therapeutic relationship matters.

The relationship between you and your therapist is an important part of the therapeutic process.

At House of Healing, we recognize that therapists have different strengths, specialties, clinical approaches, and experiences. That’s why we consider more than availability when helping you find a therapist.

Our team takes your concerns, treatment goals, preferences, and clinician qualifications into account when exploring an appropriate match.

We’ve intentionally invested in developing a team with a variety of clinical strengths because we recognize that no single therapist is the right fit for everyone.

We don’t simply ask, “Who has an opening?” We also ask, “Who is appropriately suited to support this person’s needs?”

Because finding an appointment should be the beginning of thoughtful care—not the extent of it.

We invest in supporting our clinicians’ ongoing professional growth.

We don’t just hire therapists. We invest in developing them.

Y our care deserves more than a degree.

A therapist’s education and credentials are essential. But we believe becoming an exceptional professional requires continued learning, development, and accountability. That’s why we invest in more than hiring qualified clinicians.

At House of Healing, we emphasize thoughtful recruitment, professional development, clinical consultation and supervision where appropriate, and ongoing opportunities for clinicians to strengthen their skills.

We encourage our therapists to think critically, approach complex concerns with curiosity, develop meaningful treatment goals, and remain committed to professional growth.

We believe excellent clinicians should never stop learning. And we believe the organizations employing them have an important responsibility to support that development.

Our commitment to your care begins long before you enter the therapy room. It begins with how we select, train, and support the professionals entrusted to serve you.

We prioritize helping you understand your assessment, treatment recommendations, and diagnosis when appropriate.

You deserve to understand your own mental health.

Y our treatment should never be a mystery to you.

Your diagnosis, when one is appropriate, should not simply be a label in your medical record that you don’t understand.

At House of Healing, we believe patients deserve to be informed, involved, and empowered. Our clinicians prioritize helping you understand your assessment, clinical impressions, treatment recommendations, and the purpose of your care.

We encourage questions and welcome your participation in treatment decisions. We want you to have the opportunity to understand what you’re experiencing, explore your options, and participate meaningfully in developing your treatment.

You shouldn’t have to be a mental health professional to understand your own mental health. Helping you make sense of it is part of our responsibility.

Because knowledge should never be something that separates you from the professionals caring for you. It should be something they help you develop.

Explore the research on why understanding your diagnosis and treatment matters.

We begin exploring your treatment goals together from your first session.

We don’t believe therapy should be directionless.

Y our first session is the beginning of a plan.

You shouldn’t have to spend months attending therapy without understanding what you’re working toward. At House of Healing, we believe your treatment should be guided by goals that matter to you.

From your first session, your therapist begins working with you to understand your concerns, identify your priorities, and establish an initial direction for treatment.

  • What brought you here?
  • What would you like to be different?
  • What would meaningful progress look like in your life?

These questions help guide the development of an individualized treatment plan. And importantly, your plan is developed with you—not simply for you.

As therapy continues, you and your therapist can revisit your goals, discuss your progress, and adjust your treatment as your needs evolve. We believe you deserve to understand what you’re working toward, why it matters, and how your care is intended to support you.

Because therapy should be a collaborative process in which your voice matters.

Learn why collaborative treatment planning is supported by psychotherapy research.

We consider the relationships, experiences, and circumstances that may influence your mental health.

We don’t just see symptoms. We seek to understand the whole person.

Y our experiences don’t happen in isolation.

You are more than a diagnosis. More than your symptoms. More than the challenges that brought you into therapy.

You are a person shaped by relationships, experiences, family dynamics, culture, environment, and the many systems that influence your life.

At House of Healing, we intentionally emphasize a systemic perspective in our clinicians’ professional development. This means seeking to understand how the different parts of your life may influence one another.

Sometimes emotional distress is connected to patterns within relationships. Sometimes current challenges are influenced by earlier experiences. Sometimes understanding the environment surrounding a problem can create new opportunities for addressing it.

Our clinicians seek to understand your individual experiences while also considering the broader circumstances that may be relevant to your care. Understanding what you’re experiencing matters. Understanding the relationships and experiences that may be shaping it can be just as important.

Because meaningful treatment begins with seeing the person—not simply the problem.

We intentionally develop professional standards for communication, accountability, and client service.

We don’t assume clinical skill alone creates an exceptional client experience.

W e train our team in professionalism because your experience matters.

Being a skilled therapist and providing an exceptional professional experience are related—but they are not the same thing.

Clinical education prepares mental health professionals with essential knowledge and therapeutic skills. But delivering an outstanding client experience also requires effective communication, organization, responsiveness, professional boundaries, reliability, and attention to the many details surrounding care.

That’s why our commitment to training extends beyond clinical techniques. We emphasize professional communication, accountability, ethical conduct, respectful interactions, clear expectations, and the service standards that shape how clients experience our organization.

Professionalism isn’t simply how someone presents themselves. It’s reflected in how they communicate, honor their responsibilities, respond to concerns, maintain appropriate boundaries, and treat the people who trust them.

We believe every interaction matters.

  • The way a phone call is answered.
  • The way information is communicated.
  • The way questions are addressed.
  • The way appointments are managed.
  • The way someone is welcomed into our office.
  • And the respect shown to each person throughout their experience.

We don’t believe professionalism should be assumed. We believe it should be taught, modeled, supported, and continuously strengthened.

Because when you place your trust in House of Healing, you deserve a team that takes its professional responsibilities seriously.

We strive to make every interaction with our practice respectful, organized, and supportive.

We believe the environment surrounding your care matters.

A professional service deserves a professional environment.

We believe seeking mental health care should feel like entering a place where your well-being is taken seriously.

That’s why we’ve invested in creating an environment that reflects the professionalism, privacy, comfort, and respect we want every client to experience. From our administrative team to our clinical professionals, we strive to provide organized, thoughtful service that makes navigating care easier.

We believe you should feel comfortable asking questions. You should be treated with courtesy and respect. Your privacy should be valued. And the people assisting you should be committed to making your experience as clear and supportive as possible.

We recognize that seeking therapy can feel intimidating. Our goal is to create an environment where you feel welcomed, respected, and supported from your first interaction with us.

Because the experience surrounding your care should reflect the importance of the care itself.

T he research behind our approach

We believe exceptional mental health care should be informed by more than good intentions. Our approach is shaped by research examining the therapeutic relationship, collaborative treatment planning, and the importance of helping patients understand their care.

Our Purpose

H ouse of Healing was born from a simple truth: healing begins at home.

House of Healing exists to help people come home – to themselves, to their truth, to a place of understanding and peace. With compassion and curiosity, we create space to explore, release, and reconnect.

Healing is not just personal; it ripples outward, touching families, communities, and generations to come. We believe that when one person grows into who they’re meant to be, they inspire those around them to do the same. And together, we come home.

You are not just another appointment.

Y ou are the reason we built House of Healing.

We believe your life is worth understanding.

Your concerns deserve thoughtful attention.

Your questions deserve meaningful answers.

Your goals deserve a place in your treatment.

And the trust you place in a mental health professional deserves to be met with care, integrity, and respect.

We’ve invested in the people, training, systems, and professional environment behind your care because we believe your experience is worth building an entire organization around.

You deserve more than someone willing to listen. You deserve a practice committed to supporting your care with intention.

Thoughtful matching. Collaborative treatment. Professional care built around you.

Charlotte

Qualified Mental Health Professional

Charlotte believes that the experiences that shape us do not have to define the people we become. She has a deep appreciation for the extraordinary ways human beings learn to survive, adapt, and protect themselves through life’s most difficult experiences.
 
Her passion lies in helping individuals, couples, and families understand how trauma, attachment, and early relationships influence the way they experience themselves and connect with others. She is especially drawn to supporting those navigating PTSD, complex trauma, anxiety, family estrangement, relational conflict, and the painful experience of feeling disconnected from the people they love.
 

Charlotte believes that behind many of our most difficult patterns are parts of ourselves that once learned how to survive in the only ways they knew. Her hope is to help people discover that what once protected them does not have to determine how they live, love, and experience the world today.

Charlotte earned her Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling from Prescott College, with a specialization in Somatic Therapy. She has completed Beginning 1 training in Somatic Experiencing and is a certified relationship coach and yoga instructor. Her experience in outpatient mental health, complex family dynamics, and supporting individuals through emotional distress has deepened her understanding of how profoundly our relationships and environments can influence our well-being.

Drawing from trauma-informed care, attachment theory, family systems, and somatic awareness, Charlotte approaches each person with warmth, curiosity, and genuine respect for the experiences that have shaped them. She recognizes that our emotions, thoughts, physical responses, and relationships are deeply interconnected, and that understanding these connections can create meaningful opportunities for change. She believes that healing is not about judging the ways we learned to survive, but about compassionately discovering new ways to live.
 
At the heart of Charlotte’s approach is the belief that every person deserves to feel seen, understood, and safe enough to discover who they truly are. She understands that meaningful change cannot always be rushed and strives to create a therapeutic relationship where clients feel supported in exploring difficult experiences at a pace that honors their individual needs. She is particularly passionate about helping people recognize longstanding relational patterns, rebuild trust in themselves, develop healthy boundaries, and find the courage to create relationships rooted in authenticity rather than fear or obligation. Charlotte hopes her clients come to recognize that their feelings matter, their needs are worthy of consideration, and their past does not have to dictate their future. For her, some of the most meaningful moments in therapy occur when someone who has spent years questioning themselves begins to experience self-compassion, recognize their own voice, and discover that they can honor the experiences that shaped them without remaining confined by them.
 
Outside of her clinical work, Charlotte finds joy in teaching yoga and barre classes, spending time outdoors, exploring movement, and embracing the restorative beauty of quieter moments with a good book and her cat. Her appreciation for the connection between mind and body extends beyond her professional interests and reflects her belief in creating space for balance, curiosity, and the simple experiences that make life meaningful. She is continually inspired by the resilience of the human spirit and the ways people can rediscover connection, hope, and possibility even after profound hardship. Above all, Charlotte believes that healing is not about becoming someone entirely different, but about discovering that beneath the pain, the expectations, and the ways we learned to protect ourselves, there is a person who has always been worthy of love and belonging. Her greatest hope is that those she works with begin to experience the freedom to know themselves more deeply, trust themselves more fully, and build lives and relationships that reflect who they truly are.

Zak

Qualified Mental Health Professional

With a profound belief in the power of genuine human connection and the ability of every individual to discover their own path toward healing, Zak is a compassionate advocate for mental health, personal growth, and the well-being of his community.
 
He earned his Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from Pacific University’s Professional School of Psychology and holds advanced training and certification in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), along with extensive training in Integrated Behavioral Health (IBH).
 
His professional experience spans community mental health clinics, crisis units, emergency departments, Tribal Family Services, schools, and primary care settings, where he has had the privilege of supporting individuals and families through some of life’s most challenging experiences.
 
Zak’s areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, chronic illness, PTSD and complex PTSD, autism spectrum disorder, family dynamics, and men’s mental health. He is especially passionate about helping individuals navigate trauma, develop a stronger sense of identity, build positive relationships, manage stress, and discover greater meaning and satisfaction in their personal and professional lives.
 

Throughout his career, Zak has remained committed to being a steady, empathetic presence for those experiencing profound difficulties, believing that even when there are no easy answers, genuine connection can make an extraordinary difference.

At the heart of Zak’s therapeutic approach is the belief that healing requires addressing the mind, body, and spirit. As a Yurok Tribal Member, he deeply appreciates the importance of cultural and spiritual identity in helping individuals discover peace, connection, and relief from emotional suffering.

His approach is client-centered, strength-based, empathetic, and evidence-based, integrating holistic perspectives with his extensive experience in behavioral health. Through his work on multidisciplinary teams, Zak has developed a deep appreciation for the many factors that influence well-being and the importance of understanding each person as a whole. He believes that everyone can benefit from a true confidant and trained counselor who helps them discover the answers that already exist within themselves.

With a calm demeanor and an unwavering emphasis on empathy, he has supported survivors of domestic abuse, sexual trauma, and other deeply painful experiences, helping individuals navigate barriers, rediscover their self-worth, and move toward greater stability and hope. Zak believes that life is both incredibly difficult and amazing at the same time, and that learning to navigate the world, expand our perspectives, and find our own path is one of the most meaningful journeys we can undertake.
 
What inspires Zak most is the extraordinary privilege of being an effective healer within his community. Drawn to the mental health field since his teenage years, he has long recognized empathy and integrity as essential strengths that can bring comfort, understanding, and hope to others.
 
He considers it an honor to be present with someone during their most difficult days, recognizing that while there may not be answers to every problem, the experience of being genuinely understood can be profoundly healing. His greatest hope is that clients leave therapy with a renewed sense of self-worth, an expanded worldview, and the confidence and goal-setting skills to pursue whatever they define as success.
 
Zak also believes that mental health care should feel accessible rather than intimidating, and he is committed to helping individuals understand their options and connect with the support that best meets their needs. Guided by humility and a dedication to being a lifelong learner, he continually strives to become more effective in his work.
 
Above all, Zak believes that counseling offers a unique opportunity to cultivate purpose, belonging, and meaningful change, and he considers it one of his life’s greatest privileges to have discovered a profession that he is proud to call his lifelong passion.
 
Beyond his work as a therapist, Zak finds tremendous joy in nature, music, creativity, and the simple experiences that make life meaningful. An enthusiastic outdoorsman, he enjoys sports, fishing, hiking, stargazing, metal detecting, carpentry, and working on projects that allow him to create and explore. Music has been an important part of his life since childhood, and with a background in music composition, he appreciates its remarkable ability to connect people across different experiences and backgrounds. He enjoys performing with friends, playing a variety of instruments, and working in audio engineering, often sharing his love of music through intimate performances around the valley.
 
Zak also values journaling and writing as important parts of his own mental wellness and hopes to write a book someday. Whether immersed in nature, creating music, or reflecting through writing, he embraces opportunities to continue learning, growing, and finding meaning in the world around him.
 
These passions reflect the same curiosity, authenticity, and appreciation for human connection that he brings into his work, where he hopes to help others discover that even through life’s greatest struggles, there is always room for growth, connection, and the possibility of a more meaningful future.

Madi

Clinical Mental Health Counseling Student Intern

With a deep belief in the inherent worth of every individual and the extraordinary possibility of living a life rooted in authenticity, compassion, and connection, Madi is passionate about helping people rediscover who they are and build relationships that honor their true selves.
 
She is currently pursuing her Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at the University of the Cumberlands, where she continues to develop her knowledge and skills in supporting individuals through life’s emotional and relational challenges.
 

Her primary areas of focus include anxiety, depression, and ADHD, with a particular passion for helping individuals explore codependency, shame, self-worth, and relationship patterns.

Madi believes that our experiences and relationships can profoundly shape how we see ourselves, what we believe we deserve, and how we navigate the world. She is especially drawn to helping clients recognize patterns that may have left them feeling disconnected from their own needs, boundaries, and sense of identity, guiding them toward greater authenticity, mutual respect, and self-trust.

At the heart of Madi’s therapeutic approach is the belief that healing is a deeply personal journey, one in which every individual deserves the freedom to define what health, healing, and well-being mean for themselves. Her approach is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and client-centered, drawing upon psychodynamic and attachment-focused perspectives, mindfulness, and techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).

Rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach, Madi seeks to walk alongside her clients as they discover personalized ways to move toward the lives they want to live. She describes her role as both a supportive guide and a cheerleader, someone who helps clients explore difficult experiences, recognize their strengths, and make space for the parts of themselves that may have felt misunderstood or hidden away. Her hope is that every client develops a more compassionate relationship with themselves, feels increasingly connected to their authentic self and inherent worth, and discovers a greater capacity to give and receive love.
 
Madi’s passion for healing extends beyond the mind to include the meaningful connection between our emotions, physical experiences, and overall well-being. With experience in grief counseling and mindfulness-based techniques, she is particularly interested in helping individuals cultivate greater awareness of their internal experiences and develop new ways of feeling present, grounded, and connected to themselves. She is also completing yoga teacher training, deepening her appreciation for the role that movement and body awareness can play in emotional well-being.
 
What motivates Madi most is helping people recognize that they are worthy of compassion, acceptance, and meaningful connection, regardless of the experiences that have shaped them. She believes that every person deserves the space to explore who they are without judgment and discover what a meaningful, fulfilling life looks like on their own terms.
 
Through curiosity, encouragement, and genuine care, she hopes to help clients develop greater autonomy, reconnect with their needs and values, and cultivate relationships rooted in honesty, mutual care, and authentic connection.
 
Beyond her work in counseling, Madi finds joy in creativity, meaningful relationships, and life’s simple adventures. She loves working with ceramics, spending time with family, and exploring the outdoors with her dog. Her appreciation for the creative, messy, and imperfect process of making something by hand reflects her belief that growth and self-discovery do not require perfection.
 
She values the unique sense of presence that art can inspire and the opportunities it creates to slow down, embrace uncertainty, and appreciate the beauty of the process. These same values are woven into her work with clients, where she hopes to create a space filled with warmth, curiosity, and compassion. Above all, Madi believes that healing is not about becoming someone entirely new, but about reconnecting with the parts of ourselves that deserve to be understood, accepted, and loved. She considers it a privilege to support individuals as they discover their own capacity for growth and become more fully their true, authentic selves.

Marriage and Family Therapist Student Intern

With a profound belief that healthy families are foundational to the well-being of individuals, the growth of children, and the strength of our communities, Lysha Murphy is passionate about helping couples and families heal, reconnect, and build relationships filled with greater understanding, compassion, and love. She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies from New Hope Christian College and is currently pursuing her Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Colorado Christian University, where she has maintained a 4.0 GPA.

Her professional experience includes working in residential treatment for children and providing specialized treatment foster care, deepening her understanding of the challenges families face and the extraordinary importance of healthy, nurturing relationships. Lysha is particularly passionate about marriage counseling, parenting, divorce recovery, and co-parenting. She finds special meaning in helping couples overcome resentment and contempt, rediscover kindness toward themselves and one another, and develop new ways of communicating and connecting.

 

Whether supporting couples experiencing significant marital distress, helping parents strengthen their relationships with their children, or guiding families through the complexities of divorce, Lysha believes that investing in the health of our relationships creates opportunities for healing that extend far beyond the individual.

At the heart of Lysha’s therapeutic approach is the belief that healing happens through meaningful connection, understanding, and empowerment. Her style is collaborative, flexible, and creative, grounded in a genuine desire to meet each client where they are. She strives to create a safe and supportive space where individuals and couples feel seen, heard, and genuinely understood, even when navigating their most difficult experiences.

Through thoughtful exploration and compassionate guidance, she helps clients gain insight, recognize their strengths, and take ownership of their growth in ways that create lasting change in their lives and relationships.

 

Lysha believes that every person has the capacity for growth and change, and she considers it a privilege to walk alongside her clients as they discover new perspectives, build confidence, and take meaningful steps toward the lives and relationships they desire.

 
Her hope is that clients leave therapy not only with a greater understanding of themselves and one another, but also with a renewed sense of possibility and the confidence to create meaningful change.
 
What inspires Lysha most is witnessing those extraordinary moments when something finally clicks, a new understanding takes shape, and a door opens to growth and transformation.
 
With a deep love of learning, teaching, and helping others find their way to understanding, she believes that insight can be profoundly empowering, allowing people to make sense of their experiences, recognize their strengths, and discover possibilities they may not have seen before.
 
She finds tremendous joy in seeing how one person’s healing can create a ripple effect throughout their community, or how a couple’s growth can positively impact their entire family.
 
These experiences reinforce her belief that healing extends beyond the individual and has the power to transform relationships, strengthen families, and positively influence future generations. Above all, Lysha believes that when we invest in healing and strengthening our relationships, we help create healthier generations and a more connected society. She is deeply honored to be part of that process, supporting individuals and families as they discover new ways to love, understand, and care for one another.
 
Beyond her work, Lysha finds joy in creativity, music, literature, and the many ways artistic expression brings people together. She loves getting lost in a good science fiction or fantasy book, though her curiosity and love of learning inspire her to explore nearly every genre. Music has always held a special place in her life, both for its creative expression and its healing power. Having played in orchestras, bands, punk rock groups, and jazz combos, she has experienced firsthand the unique ways music can express emotion, inspire connection, and bring people together.
 
Whether creating something herself or appreciating the creativity of others, Lysha finds meaning in the ways art can open our minds to new perspectives and enrich our relationships.
 
This same appreciation for creativity, connection, and discovery is woven throughout her work as a therapist. She believes that every person and every family holds the potential for meaningful transformation, and she is passionate about helping others discover that even in the midst of life’s greatest challenges, new understanding, deeper connection, and lasting change are possible.

With a deep belief in the inherent worth of every person and their capacity for growth, healing, and creating a meaningful life, Kendra is passionate about helping individuals and families find hope, connection, and direction through life’s most difficult seasons. She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, with a minor in Human Sexuality, from San Francisco State University and her Master of Social Work from Boise State University, where she graduated with a 4.0 GPA.
 

Her experience in hospice care and outpatient therapy has given her the privilege of supporting individuals and families through anxiety, trauma, relationship and marital challenges, chronic illness, grief, aging, and significant life transitions. She feels especially drawn to supporting women navigating divorce, single parenthood, and the challenges of rebuilding their lives, as well as individuals and families facing serious illness, loss, and the emotional complexities of accepting change. She believes these experiences deserve to be met with compassion, understanding, and a space where people can process their feelings without judgment.

At the heart of Kendra’s work is the belief that people are more than the challenges they face, the experiences they have endured, or the stories they tell themselves about who they are. Her approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-informed practice. She is particularly drawn to the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which emphasize making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful steps toward the life we want to live.

 

She believes therapy should be a space where clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood—a place where they can safely explore difficult emotions, challenge patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and reconnect with the values and possibilities that give their lives meaning. By incorporating mindfulness, intentional living, and an appreciation for each individual’s unique experiences, she hopes to help clients develop greater self-awareness, flexibility, and confidence in navigating life’s challenges. Her greatest hope is that those she works with leave therapy with a deeper understanding of themselves, a stronger connection to their values, and the courage to move toward a life that feels more meaningful and fulfilling.

Her passion for helping others has been deeply shaped by her experiences supporting individuals during some of life’s most vulnerable moments. During her clinical placement at Celia’s House, a hospice home, she supported individuals receiving end-of-life care and their families as they navigated serious illness, grief, and loss. She also gained experience providing individual therapy and facilitating group therapy focused on aging and acceptance of the aging process. Through these experiences, she developed an even greater appreciation for the strength found in compassion, connection, and the courage to embrace life’s inevitable changes.

What inspires her most is the opportunity to help someone begin finding their way forward. She believes that even during our most difficult seasons, the possibility for connection, change, and happiness remains. When one person feels supported, begins healing, or discovers a new sense of hope, she believes that transformation can extend beyond the individual into their family, relationships, and community. Her mission is to contribute to that ripple effect, one person at a time, by leading with compassion, understanding, and an unwavering belief in the possibility of healing.

Beyond her work as a therapist, Kendra finds her greatest joy in spending time with her family, especially her children. Together, they enjoy hiking, riding bikes, traveling, and playing board games, creating meaningful memories and appreciating the simple moments of everyday life. She values mindfulness and intentional living, finding opportunities to slow down, be present, and stay connected to what matters most. These values reflect her belief that while we cannot always control what happens to us, we have opportunities to shape how we respond to life’s experiences. Above all, she believes that healing does not require perfection; it begins with curiosity, self-compassion, and a willingness to take the next step. She strives to create a space where every individual feels accepted as they are while being supported in exploring who they want to become, holding firmly to the belief that every person deserves the opportunity to build a life filled with meaning, connection, and hope.

Nonie

Founder and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist

Nonie has dedicated her life to a belief that shapes everything she builds and every person she hopes to serve: even in the presence of profound suffering, there remains an extraordinary capacity for healing, connection, and change. Her work reflects a deep understanding of the ways violence, betrayal, abuse, and difficult relationships can influence the course of a human life, alongside an enduring belief in people’s ability to experience growth and develop healthier relationships.

She is passionate about creating environments where individuals feel respected, supported, and empowered to recognize their inherent worth. Nonie earned her Bachelor’s degree in Marriage and Family Studies from Brigham Young University–Idaho and her Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Capella University. As an entrepreneur who has founded organizations and built and developed numerous teams, she has translated her convictions into meaningful work that supports individuals, strengthens communities, and creates opportunities for others to flourish.

To Nonie, leadership is an opportunity to turn compassion into action, cultivate excellence, and build organizations that make a meaningful difference in the lives of the people they serve. Her ambition has never been measured solely by the scale of what she builds, but by the depth of the good she hopes it will bring into the world.

Nonie’s love for family has profoundly shaped her personal and professional values. Through years of living alongside and caring for individuals with developmental disabilities, serving as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for children in foster care, and owning and operating several mental health adult foster homes, she has developed a deep commitment to supporting underserved populations and advocating for the dignity of those whose voices are too often unheard. These experiences have strengthened her belief that every individual deserves to be treated with compassion, dignity, and respect, regardless of their circumstances, abilities, or challenges.

This conviction inspired her to found House of Healing with a central mission: to help individuals and families build healthier relationships and experience greater connection. She is particularly passionate about supporting couples as they work to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and develop deeper understanding. Her commitment to families is rooted in an enduring love for children and a belief that every child deserves safety, emotional attunement, secure attachment, and the opportunity to develop a healthy sense of self. She strives to help parents and caregivers recognize the importance of relationships in children’s emotional development and cultivate environments where children feel valued, understood, and supported. Her hope is to contribute to a world where more children grow up confident in their worth, secure in their relationships, and surrounded by people who recognize the extraordinary responsibility and privilege of caring for them.

While continuing to grow her companies, Nonie’s professional work increasingly focuses on understanding the complex systems that influence how people think, relate, lead, and work together. Her clinical interests include the relationship between nervous system functioning, thoughts, emotions, and behavior, particularly how these factors influence relationships, decision-making, and personal effectiveness. Drawing upon strategic therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), she works with business owners, physicians, attorneys, athletes, executives, and other high-performing individuals navigating the demands of professional achievement, leadership, and personal relationships. She recognizes that professional success does not eliminate emotional or relational challenges and believes meaningful growth often begins with greater self-awareness and an understanding of how our experiences influence ourselves and others. Her work also extends into organizational consulting, where she draws upon her experience building and leading teams to help organizations strengthen communication, professional relationships, accountability, and operational effectiveness.
 
Nonie believes that leadership is not simply a position of authority, but a responsibility to create conditions in which others have the opportunity to succeed. Her approach emphasizes establishing clear expectations, providing constructive feedback, recognizing individual strengths, developing effective systems, and supporting professional growth. She strives to balance accountability with compassion, encourage thoughtful decision-making, and equip others with the skills and confidence to work independently. Her goal is not to build organizations that depend upon her presence, but to develop capable people and sustainable systems that can continue creating meaningful value well into the future.
 
Above all, Nonie’s greatest joy is the privilege of being human and experiencing the many relationships that give life meaning. She treasures being a wife, mother, daughter, sister, servant, leader, and friend, recognizing each relationship as an opportunity to offer love, encouragement, and genuine connection. She delights in playing with her children, deepening her friendship with her husband, gathering people around a table, sharing delicious food, and creating spaces where others feel welcomed and valued. She loves to laugh wholeheartedly and believes there is something beautiful about allowing ourselves to experience both the joy and sorrow that come with being human. She finds fulfillment in playing piano, lifting weights, exploring the outdoors, learning, serving her community, and appreciating the meaningful moments of everyday life. Nonie believes that life is not meant to be measured only by what we accomplish, but also by the relationships we nurture, the kindness we extend, and the opportunities we create for others. She hopes her work contributes to families experiencing greater connection, children growing up with a stronger sense of security and belonging, individuals recognizing their inherent worth, and leaders developing organizations that value both people and excellence.
 
When Nonie considers the life she hopes to leave behind, she doesn’t think first of the organizations she built, the people she led, or the things she accomplished. She thinks of her children—of the love they felt in her arms, the laughter they shared, the safety they knew, and the hope that they will carry into the families and lives they one day build. She thinks of her husband, her family, and the people she was privileged to love, hoping they will remember not how much she accomplished, but how deeply she cherished being alive alongside them. She thinks of the people who trusted her with their most painful stories, the individuals who deserved to be seen when the world overlooked them, and the people she led who discovered strengths they never knew they possessed. Her deepest hope is that something of the love she gave will remain in each of them—that they will love their children more tenderly, extend compassion more freely, lead others more thoughtfully, and believe more deeply in the worth of every human life. And perhaps, long after her name is forgotten, a child she will never meet will feel safer, a family will experience greater love, or someone who has suffered will encounter unexpected kindness because of goodness passed from one person to another. For Nonie, that would be a life beautifully lived: to have loved the people entrusted to her so fully that, even when she is no longer here to hold their hands, some part of that love continues to hold them—and through them, reaches a world she will never see.
