What if you could be confident and comfortable right where God has placed you?In this episode, Vicki Diemert and guest host Mark Andress welcome Gabby DeLong of Goodworks Counseling for a compelling conversation about identity, trauma, DBT (which teaches skills to manage intense emotions, improve interpersonal relationships, and tolerate distress) and what real healing actually looks like. Gabby unpacks her work with women navigating life after reproductive trauma, and individuals with autism all within a faith-based counseling practice that takes insurance.You’ll hear insights about emotions (why they matter but shouldn’t run the show), why counseling is different than talking to a friend, and how growth often shows up through discomfort.goodworkscounseling
Have you ever wondered why certain memories still have power over you even after years of faith, prayer, or therapy? In this episode, Vicki Diemert and guest host Mark Andress, talk with Tony Ziolko, owner of Reclaim Counseling, a clinical practice rooted in gospel values and guided by the motto Restore. Rebuild. Reclaim. They serve individuals, couples, and children, focusing on trauma care using EMDR, an evidence-based therapy that helps reprocess painful memories so they no longer overwhelm the nervous system. They discuss what EMDR looks like, what to expect during and after sessions, and why healing happens at a human pace. Ultimately, this conversation reframes therapy as a tool to help you grow bigger than your suffering and step back into the world ready to love and serve. reclaimcounselingaz
What if healing isn’t about fixing yourself, but about feeling safe enough to be fully human? In this episode, Vicki Diemert and guest host Mark Andress talk with Summer Fletcher, owner and therapist at Path of Life Counseling in Gilbert, AZ, about how healing happens through connection, presence, and understanding the nervous system. They explore trauma-informed and somatic approaches that help people slow down, move out of survival mode, and feel safe in their bodies and relationships. This conversation gently reframes mental health struggles as human experiences not failures and reminds us that emotions are gifts meant to be felt, not avoided.pathoflifeaz
