"Carol is such a gifted healer. - Dr. F.H."
"When Carol first prayed for my kidney stone, her hand heated up so much I thought she was going to burn me. I saw her for several healings. When I returned to the doctor to get tested, my kidney stone was gone. - Dr. Charles Warfield"
"Carol is an amazing practitioner with whom I've experienced tremendous success with. I first sought out Carol for life coaching and management of stress and anxiety. Carol helped me through the tough times with compassionate ears, words of wisdom, and her ability to help me see "the bigger picture". I was able to set goals, see my life through a clearer (and more beautiful) lens, and enjoy the present again! I highly recommend Carol and her multitude of offerings."
