You can, and you should keep praying! But here’s the question: have you already prayed about this? If it still hurts, the issue may not be your prayer life. Many of us pray about our pain. A Heart Healing Session leads you into it, gently, to the root you may not be able to see on your own. None of us can see our own blind spots. That’s why Scripture says, “Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed” (James 5:16). Some healing was never meant to happen alone.

Most women who book a session didn’t think they “needed” it either. They were functioning. Leading. Serving. Fine. But functioning isn’t the same as free. If something keeps resurfacing, whether it’s a reaction, a pattern, or a heaviness you can’t explain, that’s not weakness. It’s an invitation. You don’t have to be falling apart to deserve wholeness.

If you're reading this page and something inside you is saying, "this is for me"; that's enough. You don't need to fully understand what Heart Healing is before you begin. You don't need to have the right words, the right level of faith, or a clear picture of what needs to heal.

Readiness doesn't mean having it together. It means being willing. Jesus already knows what He wants to address. Your only role is to show up open - and let Him lead from there. The first session is designed to be a gentle, no-pressure introduction. If it doesn't feel right, you're not committed to anything further. If you've carried something long enough to still be here reading - you're ready!

Yes. God desires “truth in the innermost being” (Psalm 51:6), and “He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds” (Psalm 147:3). Heart Healing is simply making space for Him to do what He promised.

You won’t be pushed anywhere you’re not ready to go. The Holy Spirit is gentle and leads in His timing. When a memory surfaces, we don’t stay in the pain. We invite Jesus into it. Most women describe the experience as peaceful, not traumatic.

Therapy works through talking and strategies over time. Heart healing is a prayer-based encounter where the Holy Spirit reveals the root of pain and God's truth brings healing. Many women find it a powerful complement or alternative.

Coaching is about where you’re going. Heart Healing is about what keeps pulling you back. Coaching builds strategy. Heart Healing removes the lie that keeps sabotaging the strategy. (I offer both, and many women find Heart Healing makes coaching far more fruitful.)

Consider what you’ve already spent carrying this: months of counseling, books, conferences, and years of energy spent holding it together. Heart Healing goes to the root, which is why many women experience lasting change in one session. Your first session is a gentle introduction with no commitment beyond it. If you’re not ready to book, start with the free Healing Blueprint.

One-on-one sessions are held online by video, so you can join from anywhere. Group sessions are in person at churches, retreats, and events in Dallas–Fort Worth and wherever Tonja travels.

Every heart is different. Some women experience the breakthrough they need in one session; others choose several to go deeper. You'll see the session options when you book.

Just come as you are, in a quiet, private space. There's nothing to fix or figure out beforehand.

Everything shared in our session is treated as private and confidential. I hold that with great care.

As a mandated reporter, there are specific exceptions - if information involves current abuse, harm to a minor, or situations where someone is in immediate danger, I'm required by law to report it. Outside of those specific circumstances, our time together remains completely private.
