Do you long to:
- Deepen your intimacy with God
- Hear God’s voice and discern His will
- Discover your core personal values
- Accomplish that big goal that seems illusive?
Coaching isn’t about fixing people. Instead, a coach functions as a partner, helping you live out your own values and dreams for your life. You’ll be the one setting the agenda. I’ll focus our conversations and help you to go deeper and reach higher in your life than you have gone before. We’ll explore the strategies and support structures you need to succeed in reaching your dreams and goals, and together we’ll create a customized, systematic plan and walk it out to make your goal a reality.
As your spiritual growth coach, I partner with you to help you discover how your unique design can draw you into a more intimate and authentic relationship with God. You can experience transformational life change.
I ask powerful questions that help you process what is going on in your spiritual life and motivate you to deepen your experience with God. Additionally, I use assessments, exercises and approaches that fit your stage of life, personality and spiritual temperament so that you can achieve the goals you set for yourself in your spiritual life.

What women are saying . . .
"Deitra combines her pastoral heart with her coach’s heart to create an atmosphere for acceptance and growth. She demonstrates a genuine care for others through her active listening and desire to see them succeed. Encouragement and maintaining right relationships are her strengths. Deitra understands the value of engaging God in the growth process, and I am confident God will use her as a coach to point many hearts toward Him."
Jodi W, coach trainer
"Thanks a million for the great call. I find myself filled with a sense of hopefulness! Like always your strategy of “prepare and move” done with your comments, guiding words, encouragement and prayer was successful once again in my life. You are with out a doubt anointed by the Holy Spirit and reflect Him in bold ways. I thank God for leading me to you." Brenda L
"I loved the coaching calls! For the first time, I felt empowered to make choices for myself, about my life that I thought might benefit me, rather than being “directed”. I gradually became freer and freer with each month’s call and am still growing to love who I’m made to be (being “enthusiastically kind” to myself!) I think this is the direct result of your style of coaching…you literally stand beside me and cheer on what the Holy Spirit is showing and doing. I came to trust myself hearing from Him again…had lost that for some time." Raquel C
"Having Deitra as my lifecoach was an encouragement to me at a time in my life when I was suffering from mild depression and didn't even realize it. Going through the life purpose exercises with Deitra helped me to see my life clearly and find meaning and new enthusiasm for life. I slowly began to realize that God has given me everything I need to do what I desire to do, and that He made no mistakes in creating me and giving me the beautiful life I have. Although I had learned this before, having Deitra as my lifecoach gave me the extra support and encouragement I needed to become secure within myself and move into a fully enriched life." Gail S
Deitra is an awesome coach! I had been “stuck” for a very long time…..too many piles of old magazines and newspapers hanging around that I thought someday I’d want….boxes adorning places in my house that weren’t supposed to house boxes…..and I had internal clutter that was just as bad, though not as obvious. Working with Deitra allowed me to unclutter both the physical and spiritual places that I inhabit. Once the clutter was dealt with, the real work of finding out what I felt “called” toward opened up. Under Deitra’s careful tutelage I have been able to begin the process of writing a book as a part of my own healing after my father’s death a year ago. Deitra has been able to help give direction to the process and encouragement along the way. She has even been able to give me the gentle nudge to move me along when I have stalled or hit writer’s block. Her coaching is clear, honest, loving, and important. I’ll never be able to thank her enough for the contributions she continues to make to my journey, both personally and spiritually.
