Stacey experience with Inner Healing started eight years ago when she met Teresa and did sessions with her and opened her eyes to a whole new world of whole heart healing led by the Holy Spirit to bring peace and freedom by revelation of His truth and love. Since then, inner healing has always been a passion of her heart for others to experience. She is excited to come alongside others to encounter Jesus in processing grief, suffering, trauma, brokenness, hurt or wounds in order to be restored through the power and authority of Christ.
Stacey was a stay at home mom for 12 years raising her 4 kids who are now all adults, and then transitioned into the school district as a paraprofessional working with kids ages 9-13 for the last 13 years. Most recently, she walked through a 2-year battle of cancer with her daughter Morgan who passed away February of 2024 at age 22. Stacey has allowed the Lord to accompany her through grief and suffering as she has processed the faith journey she and her family undertook during the greatest trial of their lives, the death of their loved one.
Through training and apprenticeship, Stacey joined the Inner Healing Ministries team in 2025.
