ABOUT
Deeply Rooted to Flourish
We believe that healing, growth, and connection are possible for every person, every family, and every community. No matter the season you're in, you can grow deep roots, stand strong, and flourish in the life for which you were created.
Our
Story
The Evergreen Institute was born from a deep longing to slow down—really slow down—and rediscover what matters most.
After years of running hard in my personal and professional life, I found myself spiritually dry, emotionally tired, and longing for more than surface-level connection. I was overwhelmed. I needed space to breathe. Stillness. A sacred pause where I could listen deeply and return to what truly mattered.
So I created it.
​
What began as quaint gatherings in living rooms and around fire pits slowly grew into something more. Out of my own season of burnout and struggling to break through, The Evergreen Institute emerged as a space for others to heal, grow, and connect.
​
Today, we offer mental health counseling, intensive therapy, workshops, retreats, and speaking engagements designed to bring people back to center—back to God, back to themselves, back to their spouses and their families, and back to a pace of life that allows for soul-deep transformation. Our goal is to make every offering an experience rooted in wisdom, anchored in presence, and wrapped in the belief that God meets us when we pause long enough to listen.
​
My heart is to hold space for others to experience the same kind of renewal that I am seeking in my life. Whether you sit with a counselor, join a workshop, come to a retreat, or attend a talk, I want you to know these things:
​
You are not alone.
​
You are deeply seen.
​
You are unconditionally loved.
​
And there is more waiting for you—just beyond the noise.
