Restored Refuge
Discover the healing and restoration that comes from embracing God's truth
EMET Trauma Resolution
EMET, meaning "truth" in Hebrew, is a powerful therapeutic technique designed to reveal false refuge systems and stuck emotions. With the use of muscle response testing, this process restores spiritual truth by guiding clients toward healing and lasting freedom.
"He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."
Psalm 91:2
Trauma is born in moments when we feel blindsided, out of control, and abandoned - even questioning God's presence in the midst of it all.
Trauma can be a fleeting moment
or a situation that slowly
burns and builds.
The Holy Spirit knows the truth about those moments in life when you felt the need to guard your heart out of self-protection.
He knows what is in His house and wants
to give us freedom.
You can't solve the problem if you don't know what it is. EMET gets to the root cause, instead of circling around the symptoms.
“In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.“
â€â€Romans‬ â€8‬:â€26‬-â€27

Who Benefits
EMET is for individuals who have experienced any type of trauma and are seeking restoration. These sessions can also be beneficial for people who have a difficult time identifying and articulating their emotions and the impact of a past traumatic experience. Individuals do not have to have a particular event to work through. The Holy Spirit will reveal the wound that needs to be addressed at that time.
Session Details
Each EMET session lasts about 1-2 hours and can be done in person or virtually. The session involves identifying lies, patterns, and coping mechanisms - what we call "false refuge systems" - and allows the client to process stuck emotions. This is all done through muscle response testing, where the coach lightly places a hand on the client's wrist and feels for resistance or contraction. The Holy Spirit reveals the truth through this technique.
Confidentiality
The contents of your session is completely confidential. Any personal information, details, or experiences will not be disclosed unless specified in writing by the client. There are only a few rare exceptions where confidentiality cannot be maintained:
​
-
If there is a clear risk of harm to yourself or others
-
If there is disclosure of abuse involving a minor, elderly person, or vulnerable adult
-
If legal authorities require information by subpoena

An important part of the EMET trauma resolution protocol is deconstructing the operating system, otherwise know as false refuge system. This false refuge "helps us" create our own system of safety apart from God. In times of vulnerability, we depend on this false refuge instead of God's refuge for protection.

About Amy
I was born and raised in Wichita Falls, Texas and married my high school sweetheart, Blayne Berry. Together we are raising four wonderful children - Jude, Everett, Olivia, and Grayson. Most days you'll find us at a sporting event, enjoying the outdoors, eating good food with family and friends, or cuddled up on the couch introducing our kids to a favorite 90's movie.
I have been a registered nurse for 15 years, and during that time I pursued a master’s in nursing education. I have a passion for educating, empowering, and equipping others, especially during difficult times.
​
Alongside nursing, I have served in ministry for nearly two decades, as a women's ministry coordinator, YoungLife volunteer, and bible study teacher. I am an extrovert, who loves creating authentic connections, hearing people’s stories, and encouraging others to live out their God-given purpose.
​
When I was introduced to EMET and other forms of therapy, I realized the importance of bringing healing to the whole person—spiritual, physical, emotional, mental, and relational. This approach has deeply impacted my own life, changing my perspective and my path. It helped me recognize and replace false refuge systems with the true refuge found in God. Now I feel called to share that same gift with others: helping people get “unstuck,” find freedom from old patterns, and experience restoration that only comes from the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

"My EMET experience with Amy was truly transformative as it fostered a deeper connection with the Holy Spirit in a way that I haven't experienced before. Amy created a safe, supportive environment that allowed me to process some difficult emotions and memories. The combination of her gentle guidance, tender heart, and the EMET approach helped me release things I had been holding onto that I wasn't aware of before. I walked away from this experience with a sense of lightness, clarity, and hope. Amy's compassion, wisdom, and skill made all the difference, and I am deeply grateful for the healing and growth that came from our work together."
"EMET allowed me to understand feelings and patterns that I could not have voiced or even recognized. I was able to identify lies and replace those lies with biblical truth. This technique truly changed the trajectory of my life. I am healthier in so many aspects of my life because of EMET, and ultimately because of the Holy Spirit."
"EMET has completely transformed my spiritual life. The Holy Spirit is willing to speak in our lives if we only listen... EMET provided a place for me to listen. Through my EMET experience I saw strong-holds the enemy had over me and I was able to hand them over to God. Areas in my life I was completely blind to bubbled to the surface. 'The truth is sharper than any two-edged sword' and 'there is no darkness in Him at all.' The Spirit shined his Light on me. I am so thankful for my EMET experience and recommend this time with Amy a hundred times over."
