Safe Anger/ Loss and Grief Coach, Office Manager
Randy Harding is unavailable for sessions at this time.
Randy's Safe Anger/Loss and Grief Coaching, grounded in his faith-based Christian worldview, emphasizes God's sovereignty, the transformative power of relationships, and the Holy Spirit's healing power.
In loss he views the shift from denial to intense anger or rage as a sacred signal—an unfiltered cry of the soul against injustice, loss, or God's seeming silence.
Anger is a powerful message that something is wrong, but when expressed aggressively, it can destroy the tender fibre of solid relationships.
Randy is a NAMA-certified Safe Anger Coach and author with 14 years of experience.
In Person clients will receive a copy of his book, SAFE ANGER FLASHPOINTS.
