Luella Jonk Consulting

Luella Jonk Consulting Self-Awareness Coach | Podcaster | Gottman Therapist | Angel Investor. I am in the business of helping people attain their visions.

I approach therapy not as simply a “one-hour a week” time together. I hope to be present with you in spirit, in your everyday lives, helping you to be reminded of the strategies we may have discussed and offer you the support you need when you are most in need of it. I want you to know that you are not alone in your struggles - whether these struggles stem from anxiety, grief, loss of identity and self-worth, or struggling to find meaning in life. I have a special interest in working with young adolescents and young adults. I specialize in helping those suffering from social anxiety, trauma, and self-confidence. I have helped numerous clients become liberated from guilt and shame associated with previous or present behaviours. Along with specialities in treatment of trauma, anxiety and regaining self-worth, I am especially sensitive to First Nation issues. As a speech therapist and counsellor, I have worked with numerous immigrants within a multi-cultural hub. I am sensitive to the trauma and shame which First Nations peoples have endured, having visited over 15 First Nation communities and spending time immersed in their culture.

When Your Soul Feels Scattered

You know those days when nothing is “wrong,” yet you feel off inside?
Almost like your mind and heart are running in different directions.

Maybe you’re thinking too much, replaying conversations, or bracing for the next thing to go wrong.

Maybe you’re tired from holding everything together…
the house, the appointments, the emotions, the expectations.

That scattered feeling isn’t weakness.
It simply means your inner world has too many “centers.”

Fear becomes a center.
Responsibility becomes a center.
Old hurt becomes a center.
Even perfectionism becomes a center.

Prayer is the moment everything shifts.
Not dramatically, but gently.

When you pause, even for a breath, your thoughts settle and your emotions soften.

And slowly, God becomes the steady point your soul has been reaching for.

Life doesn’t get “easier,” but you feel grounded again.
From that place, everything becomes more manageable.

Mom and Dad’s Law Is Sacred
Why one daily meal can change everything in your home.

Children push boundaries.
That is part of their nature.
But the gift of having them under your roof is the ability to set loving order.

Without order, life becomes chaos.
Families need predictable rituals to feel safe and connected.

And there is one ritual most families overlook:
a daily shared meal.

A shared meal is not about food.
It is about unity, rhythm, and remembering who we are to one another.

This is your family’s communication hub.
A screen-free place for listening, laughter, and gentle correction.

Consistent meals build emotional reserves.
They make conflict easier to navigate and values easier to pass on.

Think of it as a daily deposit of love.
A simple act that strengthens your home more than complex strategies ever will.

If you have not prioritized a daily family meal, begin now.
Small rituals create lifelong belonging.

Your table is sacred.
Your presence is shaping generations.

God Must (Seriously) Laugh at Our Illusion of Control

We do “all the right things” to feel in control — our kids, our marriage, our future.
But deep down, we know who’s really in charge.

Control feels responsible.
But often, it’s just fear in disguise.
We manage, fix, check, and plan...
and still feel restless.

Anxiety is the mind’s reaction to uncertainty.
Control is our brain’s false antidote.
The result?
We cling like the cat stuck in the tree —
gripping the very thing that keeps us trapped.

Releasing control is not “not caring.”
It’s trusting that the One who created you
is also guiding you.
You are not called to fix everything —
only to stay faithful.

As a Christian therapist, I tell my clients:
Anxiety is your cue to pray.
It’s the nudge to say, “Lord, this is Yours now.”

If I could prescribe two universal supplements,
they’d be Vitamin P (Patience) and Vitamin N (Nature).
Wait on God’s timing.
Step outside and remember His power.

Do your best, and forget the rest.
Relax your shoulders. Breathe. Smile.
Say a kind word.
Give thanks that you were given another day.
He’s got this.

You’re not in control — and that’s the best news you’ll hear today.
Let go of the illusion and find peace in the One who truly holds tomorrow.

✨Faith isn’t just for the altar—it’s for the kitchen, the office, the studio, and the moments when life feels uncertain. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be exploring how trust becomes a daily practice, not just a spiritual ideal.

✨Faith is a risk, an investment, and a grace. Let’s talk about how it shows up in relationships, routines, and the quiet courage to believe again.

This week’s reflection invites you to see faith as both a risk and an investment.

So much of our modern understanding of depression and anxiety stops at “chemical imbalance.” But I can’t help but ask—where did the imbalance begin? Perhaps in wounds too deep for science to measure: trauma, loss, shame, or even grief absorbed before birth.

From a faith perspective, our sorrow often reflects a perceived separation from God. Whether the source is external (loss, trauma, disease) or internal (sin, guilt), the ache remains—a soul longing to be reunited with its Creator.

Science can explain the mechanics of life and love, but it cannot measure mystery. Marriage, life itself, and grace are all gifts that point us back to God.

If you are suffering right now, especially for a spouse or child, take comfort. Your suffering is not wasted. It’s a sign you are sharing in Christ’s suffering—a sign of His love for you. He loves you most deeply when you feel most abandoned.

“Don’t be afraid,” He says. And He means it.

Marriage: Finishing the Race with St. Paul’s Courage

St. Paul’s words to Timothy reveal a powerful image for married life—a race that begins with excitement, encounters exhaustion, and, by grace, ends in glory.
Marriage starts with a burst of hope. The vows, the honeymoon, the laughter echoing in a new home—all feel like the thrilling start of a race. We run hard in the early miles, filled with dreams and adrenaline.

But then come the middle miles—often around year 12 or 15—when we “hit the wall.” The novelty wears off. Fatigue settles in. Some feel alone, unappreciated, even rejected. We begin to ask ourselves, Why did I sign up for this? That’s not failure. That’s the race.

Paul doesn’t boast about winning. He simply says, “I finished.” He poured himself out like a libation—an image of total self-gift. So too in marriage, we are called not to fill ourselves with fleeting pleasures, but to empty ourselves for the good of the other.

And when we do…when we keep running, keep forgiving, keep showing up…something shifts. The grace of endurance often reveals itself after the kids are grown, or in the quiet of retirement. The long miles behind you begin to make sense. It was worth it.

Marriage, like faith, isn’t about perfection. It’s about perseverance. Fighting the good fight. Finishing the race. Keeping the faith.
And in the end, what we gave—our time, our patience, our sacrifices—is what we take with us into eternal life.

Making Lemonade Out of Lemons

You might be going through a period right now where you are constantly asking yourself “ Why me?” or “ What happened to my marriage? “ or “ I have failed being a parent” or “ I am actually stupid, ugly, etc.” and so on and so forth. Well, first of all, you are not alone, and secondly, it is NOT normal to feel this way. You should and deserve to be happy and I am confident I can bring you there once again. Really, I can. Do you remember when you were just a kid having fun? Dipping in and out of reality where the world was a great place of opportunity and wonder. The world hasn’t changed. You have. Your approach towards life has changed.

When you work with me we go towards the root reason and cause of this lack of zest in life, this feeling of hopelessness and helplessness. We go through your timeline and I listen to your story, and I retell your story back to you to make sure I understand you.

No one knows you as well as you do. Respect your health enough to make the changes you need to make now. The way you feel and think affects your health way beyond your mood. It affects your overall immunity. Don’t wait for someone else to change in your life because they won’t. It all starts with you.

Let’s make some lemonade together. I assure you - it will turn out to be profitable in a way you could have never imagined. Please go to my website to see my specialities. You don’t need to do this on your own any longer.
