Meet Tiffany Walker of Free Faith, LLC – Spiritual Care & Counseling Services

Today we’d like to introduce you to Tiffany Walker.

Tiffany, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I am a native of Louisville, Kentucky and graduated from Central High School Magnet Career Academy, class of 1997. I attended Spelman College in Atlanta, GA (1997 – 2001) and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science – May of 2001. Answering the call to ministry in 2008, I went on to receive a Master of Divinity degree in 2011 from Emory University, Candler School of Theology.

After seminary, I served as an independent contractor at PCUSA for the Communications Department, Office of the General Assembly, From 2013 – 2018, once I completed 4 units of Clinical Pastoral education, I worked at several hospitals in Louisville, providing Spiritual Care and Pastoral Counseling as a Palliative & Holistic Care Chaplain, to patients, family, and staff members. During this time, I also served as an Interim Co-Pastor at Shawnee Presbyterian Church in Louisville, Ky. In 2021, I shifted focus from the clinical and ecclesiastical setting to a private, individual form of spiritual care and counseling. I now practice Spiritual Care and Counseling as well as Healing Touch Therapy in the Fayetteville, Georgia, servicing clientele nationwide virtually and in person.

In 2021, I launched Free Faith, LLC- Spiritual Care & Counseling Services, where I currently provide an array of services concentrating on self-care, holistic wellness, and healing touch therapy. My mission is to provide practical Spiritual Care methods towards mental health and personal healing. As a Spiritual Care Counselor and social media influencer, my goal is to use my training, education, skills, professional and life experiences to educate and support mental health care through Free Faith’s social platforms and community connections. As a Spiritual Care Counselor and Healing Touch Therapy Practitioner, I want to shine a light on Mental Health Care and the importance of a holistic approach to healing and spiritual well-being.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I don’t believe there is such a road as smooth. I have traveled my own road and have trusted the process in return. As a pioneer, there is no map to guide you to places no one has yet traveled. I became comfortable in forging a path not yet discovered…unknown territory. That said, there have been many personal and professional struggles along the way. Deaths, births, graduations, marriages, sickness, celebrations, birthdays, vacations, long workdays, family, friends and everything in between. The road has been a full human experience with ups and downs, highs and lows, yet full. For that, I am grateful and for that, I am human.

We’ve been impressed with Free Faith, LLC – Spiritual Care & Counseling Services, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Free Faith, LLC – Spiritual Care & Counseling Services fosters an open, safe, caring, and compassionate environment that empowers our clients to draw on their beliefs, courage, strengths, and faith to illuminate and manifest the healing powers of the human spirit.

I started Free Faith, LLC as an answer to the call that was placed into my spirit. As a theologian, chaplain, minister, preacher, teacher, counselor and healing touch practitioner, I believe that the human spirit should be tended to and cared for through the practice of Spiritual Care and Self Care.

Mental Health Care is our primary focus as well as Spiritual Care, Self-Care, and Healing Touch Therapy which helps shape an overall since of personal Well-Being. Our Mission is to provide Holistic Healing by nurturing the mind, body and soul through Spiritual Care and Healing Touch Therapy.

Spiritual Care and Counseling seek to help you regain a sense of peace by incorporating spiritual resources and the behavioral sciences through the use of proven therapeutic methods. Spiritual Care supports the inner person (spirit/soul) and affirms an individual’s inherent dignity and value, respecting all religions, spiritual paths, and faith traditions. Spiritual healing practices and resources help to address psycho-spiritual issues and place you on the path toward healing and holistic well-being.

Spiritual Care & Counseling assesses psycho-spiritual issues by integrating spirituality with the behavioral sciences. Spiritual healing practices and spiritual resources are used to improve spiritual, mental, and physical health.

A Spiritual Care Counselor actively incorporates their lived experience with pastoral practice, pastoral action with theological reflection, and theological wisdom with cultural perspectives. This unique approach infused with therapeutic methodologies offers clients a deeper understanding of personhood and helps them manifest meaningful life changes.

The main focus of Spiritual Care & Counseling is spiritual health and growth as it integrates insights from the psychological or behavioral sciences with spirituality, improving overall client wellness.

What matters most to me is God, self, family and my community. This is where my sense of purpose and self stems from and helps to ground me to that which is certain in my life.

My spiritual awareness and connection to the Divine is the anchor that keeps me steading when I am facing any storm. For that I am grateful and my goal is to help share that wisdom with others through providing Spiritual Care in a powerful and healing way!
