My Story

Turn the Tides Ministries has begun as a small grass roots organization from my own needs. I am dedicated to facilitating Gods healing power, love, encouragement, and enlightenment as serve community in an array of health and wellness services.

Ministering to the various needs of humanity throughout the local and global community, as to follow my higher calling.

I am a mother, grandmother, godmother, volunteer in community, and have been a licensed Registered Nurse since 1996, among other clinical or certified roles, to facilitate health and wellness. As such, I have been a part of different healthcare practices, systems, and roles across the USA.

I had my own major 'shift' of life as I was diagnosed with life threatening issues in 2003. This sudden need for attention to my personal health sent me seeking all genres of healing practices across the USA, and on a soul, fulfilling journey with God ever since. Now ‘turning the tides’ and shifting the ‘ebb and flow’ of peace and purpose from the soul to the cell, for myself and others who are seeking a shift.

In my life experiences I have also had the pleasure of working with animals in veterinary clinics (small and large animals), domestic and wild, and privately with rescue and rehab organizations.
