Mission Statement
Ruth Collective LLC exists to create Christ-centered spaces of healing, rest, and spiritual renewal. Through our different DBA’s we provide biblical counseling (Healing House), restorative retreats (My Sister’s House), and hospitality rooted in refuge (Garten Haus), we serve those seeking wholeness and connection. Guided by the promise of Jeremiah 30:17—“For I will restore health to you, and I will heal your wounds”—our mission is to cultivate environments and resources where individuals can experience God’s restoration, rediscover hope, and walk forward in renewed strength.
Your Journey to Wholeness Begins Here
Healing House Counseling is a DBA of Ruth Collective. We are a Christ-centered, trauma-informed practice dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing space for individuals, couples, and families seeking restoration. Grounded in biblical truth and supported by evidence-informed therapeutic approaches, Healing House honors each person’s story with gentleness, respect, and attunement. Our trauma-informed framework ensures that care is compassionate, collaborative, and paced according to your needs—never rushed, never forced. Here, clients are empowered to explore past wounds, strengthen resilience, and step into a journey of healing guided by hope, faith, and the promise of God’s restoring love. *This is a non-clinical practice. Services provided are spiritual care/pastoral counseling and are not suitable of licensed mental health treatment.
