Experiences with Corrie Keener Counseling

While I do not share our clients’ names and personal information due to privacy rights, I believe hearing another person’s experience in counseling helps others decide to heal from within. Read what my have offered to share with you.

My journey and search for healing was a long road that I didn’t get to focus on until adulthood. My childhood was survival and I struggled from a very young age for many years. I tried therapy before and other therapist only offered high levels of meds and coping skills. I was told I could not be cure. Just learn to manage. It left me in a life of suffering and white knuckling it. My battle was CPTSD, depression, and sexual confusion.  I had an understanding with what I was facing and knew it all stemmed for several traumatic events throughout my life.  I was unsure if this time it would work. By the time I had my first appointment with Corrie I had no hope or desire to live. I was at rock bottom; none of my ways of coping was healthy nor working.  This was my last chance and hope. I was certain it would eventually end me, if I didn’t find someone who could help.  Corrie became that person. From the moment of our meeting I knew this would be different.  Firstly, she was faith based which was important to me. I was angry with God and my walk wasn’t a dedicated one. But I always felt a pull. I just had poor examples of religion and my life experiences felt like he wasn’t there for me. Corrie taught me what it meant to have a relationship with the Lord. I experience him in a way I had never before. She was the first person that believed I could and would be healed.  Her dedication to discovering my story and every aspect I hadn’t seen from a therapist before. She truly cares and listens. She steps into the muck with you and you work together to find the way through it. With her dedication and my recommitment to faith; the Lord freed me. From battles I believed I would struggle with for life. My depression and memories of past traumas no longer consume my life. My sexual identity was once a massive burden and I discovered through therapy how past events distorted and shaped this confusion. I was far too young to understand and process what had happened. I have been restored and have a peace and contentment I hadn’t experience and didn’t think I ever would. My therapy journey has been the most challenging thing I have taken on. But it has become the most rewarding. It was truly a Godsend and I feel blessed to have Corrie along with my journey.  She supported, challenge, encourage and cheered me on every step of the way. With her help my life was reshaped and I can’t express my gratitude enough.

"I had only a few short months of therapy with Corrie Keener, but I am amazed at how much I was able to learn in that time. She helped break strongholds that had been with me for a good two decades. I was able to experience a major shift in my perspective. I understand so much more now, and because of that, I have so much more hope. Corrie and I clicked even from the consultation we had. She was immediately a very friendly and comfortable person. It felt like we'd known each other for a long time. She incorporated scripture and stood on biblical authority and solutions in her therapy. And best of all, she would always pray for me at the end of every session. The prayers were always sincere and specific to my situation and never rushed. Bless her! It was also obvious that she cared about me - and I have no doubt that she shows the same thoughtfulness and care to her other clients as well. On random days, out of the blue, she would send video links that she believed would be helpful to my particular situation. Or she would message to let me know she was praying for me. Those acts of caring and love were an immeasurable blessing to me. God bless her. In short, Corrie opened my cage door and I flew free."
