About Dr. Ivon L. Valerie
A Journey of Faith, Healing, and Purpose
With over twenty years in ministry, my journey has been one of transformation, purpose, and unwavering faith. What began as a calling to serve has evolved into a multifaceted mission to bring healing and hope to hurting hearts around the world.
As the Apostle and Lead Pastor of Faith & Works Ministries in Sint Maarten, I've had the privilege of shepherding a community of believers through seasons of growth, challenge, and triumph. My pastoral heart is deeply rooted in the belief that the church should be a place of genuine healing and authentic transformation.
My personal encounters with life's challenges ignited a passion for trauma healing and mental health within the Christian context. This led me to become a Certified Christian Mental Health Coach, specializing in helping individuals break free from the chains of trauma and step into the wholeness God has designed for them.
Through international speaking engagements, published books via Sapiential Publishing House, and one-on-one coaching, I've witnessed countless lives transformed by the power of faith-centered healing. Each testimony fuels my commitment to this sacred work.
My mission is simple yet profound: to help others discover that their past does not define their future, and that true healing is found at the intersection of faith and wholeness.
