What are people saying about working with Rev. Denise?

Working with Rev. Denise was an outstanding experience. Prior to our sessions, I had never considered working with a life coach. I had lost my prayer language, I was carrying a lot trauma and I wasn't being intentional with the Lord nor life.
Rev. Denise was thoughtful, an attentive listener and asked insightful questions, and demonstrates a great deal of patience and compassion.

I felt completely comfortable opening up to her, and through our sessions, I have experienced meaningful spiritual growth. I am now more intentional in my decision-making and consistently seek the Lord’s guidance in my daily life. Overall, the sessions were truly exceptional, and I’m deeply grateful for the journey we shared.

When I began my coaching journey with Rev, I was at a crossroad seeking clarity, direction, and a sense of peace in the midst of life’s challenges. Working with Rev. D was truly a transformative experience.
From the very start, her approach was both practical and spirit-led. She guided me with deep wisdom, compassion, and exercises rooted in Biblical truth. Through her personalized teachings, Bible readings, and prayers, I gained new perspective and strength.
By the end of our sessions, my mindset had completely shifted. I now approach life with calmness, patience, and a renewed sense of confidence in God’s plan. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking growth, healing, or simply wanting to strengthen their foundation before life’s challenges arise. Her coaching is a powerful gift that continues to bless me long after our sessions ended.

I had sessions with Coach Denise because I was concerned about my weight. I expected a typical weight-loss approach, but what I received was completely different and deeply transformative.
Coach Denise uses the Word of God to help you understand health from Christ’s perspective. She doesn’t just address food physically, but spiritually as well — helping you examine your relationship with food, with yourself, and with God. She taught me that my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and that how I feed it truly matters.
Through Scripture, prayer, and honest reflection, I learned to ask myself why I eat the way I do, and whether what I’m eating is truly honouring my body. This shift helped me develop a healthier, more intentional relationship with food — not driven by cravings, but by stewardship.
Since working with her, I no longer crave sugar, and my mindset around food has completely changed. I started this journey at 250 pounds and I am now 240 pounds. More importantly, I now see this as a process and a lifestyle, not just weight loss.
I am incredibly grateful for Coach Denise’s counselling sessions. Glory to God for the transformation, and thank you, Coach Denise, for your wisdom and guidance.

I want to thank God for Rev. Denise, who coached me and helped me uncover resistance I didn’t even realize I was carrying in my heart. Through our sessions, Denise helped me examine what I truly wanted — especially regarding my job situation. I initially believed I wanted to leave my job, but through coaching, I realized that part of my resistance came from the fact that I didn’t actually want to leave. That clarity changed everything. Things began to make sense, and I was able to see my situation clearly and make better, more honest choices. The coaching helped me understand myself at a deeper level.
