About Me

Deborah M. Tray, CPC, BSW

I am a spiritual and energy awareness coach, mentor, teacher, healer.  I gained knowledge, wisdom and courage from extensive years of study, self-exploration, energy healing, and delving deep to uncover the joy of knowing my heart’s desire and connecting deeply with my soul and spirit.

Since the day that I attended my first Dale Carnegie Human Relations class I knew that the path of helping others with personal development was my calling and passion in life. After completing the course, I was privileged to assist and teach the classes.  During my years with Carnegie, I found myself growing in ways I never imagined while having the pleasure and honor of helping others on their journey to self-fulfillment.   This inspired me to honor my lifelong goal of returning to college.  I proudly received my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work in 2005.

While in college, I was given the opportunity to work at Hospice.  When my own cousin was suffering from an incurable disease, Hospice moved me with their outstanding and compassionate work. I found the experience of helping others transition to their next life and helping the grieving families very gratifying.

In my life, I too have experienced many challenging transitions.  Getting divorced after being married for 28 years was a painful and difficult process.  But I learned during this time that directing energy toward the past was fruitless.  Instead, I learned to focus on, “What can I learn from this experience?”

I discovered that the only constant in life is change.  I learned that in order to be happy, we need to release control and allow life to flow.  Most importantly, I learned how to overcome the energy sappers – fear, confusion, doubt, disbelief.

My divorce took me on a journey of healing and restoring my soul and spirit to a place of wholeness and peace.  I learned the power of forgiveness and self-love.

My very unique journey searching for answers, happiness, and peace I came to understand on a very deep soul level that I am a beautiful and loving creation of the Divine and genuinely loved.  I learned you must look deep inside and heal the wounds of the past, the holes in your soul.  And from a place of forgiveness toward others and most importantly yourself, your journey of discovering who you are can begin.   When I decided I was ready to accept peace, love, and joy permanently in my life I saw the true and beautiful me emerge.

As a Reiki Energy Practitioner, I have been helping people heal physically, emotionally, and spiritually for over 20 years.  I am honored and very blessed to be able to share my gift of helping others to heal their lives.  It seemed like a natural progression for me to pursue a coaching certification and become a life coach specializing in helping others embrace a life that will bring them the most fulfillment, joy and peace.

With God by my side, experience in my head, and love in my heart, I am delighted to show others how they too can heal their life and step into the healing energy of forgiveness and love.  I look forward to sharing this journey with you.
