Redeeming The Table
"...look in the mirror and pray for the grace, to tear off the mask, see the art of your face."
- Michael Card, The Poem of Your Life
Meet Rhonda
Hi, I am Rhonda Reynolds. I am an Allender Center Certified, Narrative Based Trauma Care Storywork Practitioner.
​
Everyone has a story unique to them, full of particular details and moments, that shaped the way they view and relate to themselves, the world and God. We all need a witness to that story so we can form a more cohesive, truer narrative than the one we were given by our family of origin. There are keys to those hidden stories. I partner together with clients in a carefully cultivated, safe and responsive space to unlock the particularities of your story.
Together we will connect the dots of your story by identifying themes and patterns and form a more cohesive narrative and more coherent story. This work will grow your resiliency and ability to reclaim a sense of agency and see how you are created to uniquely bear the image of God in the world, on behalf of others and yourself, will set you free to live into your calling with renewed faith, greater hope, and the mutuality of love.
I believe we are better together. That said, I will come alongside you and help you engage and integrate your own story to the degree that my own training, lens and gifting can take you. If at any point you need additional help or resources that I am unable to provide, I am deeply committed to collaborating with others to get you the help you need.
"I’m meant to be a warrior, breaking free of playing it safe. I pray Jesus shows me the courageous path and plows the road before me. I long for a place for the marginalized and fed up to gather and sit at the table and never hears, "I love you, but..."
May it be so."
