Restoring Wholeness and Flourishing—One Soul at a Time
The complexities of trauma can feel challenging to navigate. You may feel lost in how to respond, or you may have tried offering support only to find it didn’t reach the depth of someone’s struggles.
I offer clinical insights that align with the integrity of your Christian faith and empower you to guide others toward healing with greater clarity and compassion.
Case Consultation
Do you need guidance navigating the complexities of trauma – issues like physical, sexual, emotional, and spiritual abuse within your church community? Together, we’ll explore trauma-informed, spiritually sensitive approaches tailored to your unique challenges. I provide case consultation to help you care for those impacted by trauma, facilitate delicate conversations, and discern when clinical mental health treatment may be needed. With compassion and expertise, I’m here to support you in this sacred work.
Case consultation may be right for you if…
You need to be equipped with careful, nuanced feedback.
You envision being the type of leader who is a safe refuge for trauma survivors.
You want to build a community of support to prevent burnout.

Biblical & Clinical Expertise
“The destructive realities of spiritual abuse in our churches and ministries have left behind a wake of immense trauma, grief, loss, and pain. I can think of no one I would trust more to speak into the hurt and provide both biblical and clinical approaches to the process of healing than my friend Colleen Ramser.”

Church Staff Feel More Confident
“Recognizing our limited knowledge of trauma, we asked Colleen to speak to our church staff. She is extremely engaging and obviously knows the subject matter well. Colleen is able to share complicated concepts in bite-sized, easy-to-understand explanations and examples. Our staff walked away feeling more confident with the complexities of ministering to people with trauma.”
