Kristen Joy is a certified coach specializing in faith + mental health + ministry leadership. She passionately serves female ministry leaders and families impacted by chronic stress, burnout, and church trauma. As a pastor's kid and a pastor's wife of almost 20 years, Kristen Joy knows the heartaches common to ministry life and has experienced deep betrayal from those she considered "family" in the Church. Through her own healing journey, Kristen's faith was reaffirmed and her joy in Christ restored. Through her experiences and trauma-informed training, Kristen is using her life experiences and training to serve others who are bravely stepping into healing from similar pain. Kristen is currently pursuing her Master of Social Work as she pursues future work as a trauma therapist.
