Forward Path with Melissa Gendreau
Life and Marriage God's Way
Your growth is my
God-given purpose
After being a Mental Health Therapist since 2009, I felt God prompt me to expand. I now help Christians heal the wounds that distort their identity, replace lies with God’s truth, and develop humble confidence so they can thrive in their faith, relationships, and marriage.
The goal is always the same: becoming the person God created you to be.
