About the ministry

Built around health, story, and a faith that sustains.

LKM Coaching and Ministry stands on three co-equal pillars — Coaching, Therapy Animal Partnerships, and Chronic Illness Care Coordination — and a pastoral care foundation rooted in Lion and the King Ministry. Our founder holds a Doctorate in Coaching and pastoral care credentials, and the work meets people where they are: body, mind, and spirit.

Pastoral care that stands next to you.

Lion and the King Ministry ties biblical pastoral care into everything we do. The work isn't about handing out a checklist — it's about someone standing next to you while you walk through a hard season. Health, story, and faith are kept together, because that's how people actually live them.

A timeline of how LKM came to be.

2017
Coaching launched as a private practice.

The work began with a single client and steady referrals. Sessions centered on health, story, and season — the same triad the ministry holds today.

2019
Therapy animal partnerships begin.

Rescue dogs and equine-assisted programs joined the practice. The work moved beyond the office and into routines grounded in calm, presence, and animal partnership.

2022
Chronic illness care coordination takes shape.

The between-appointments work became a pillar of its own — appointment briefs, symptom logs, and pacing plans that hold up between specialist visits.

2024
Pastoral care credentials through Lion and the King Ministry.

Training and credentialing rooted in biblical pastoral care. The coaching work deepened into ministry work — prayer, Scripture, and a faith that sustains.

2026
Rebranded as LKM Coaching and Ministry.

Three co-equal pillars — Coaching, Therapy Animal Partnerships, Chronic Illness Care Coordination — formalized under one name. Same work, sharper frame.

Today
LKM Coaching and Ministry serves clients worldwide.

Sessions available remotely and in person. Care that feels like someone is working on it with you — never a checklist.
