FAQs

What is coaching?

If you feel stuck despite your best efforts and prayers. Coaching is your solution-focused partnership for these current struggles. It's goal-oriented and collaborative, where you bring your lived experiences, and I offer compassionate, biblically informed wisdom and therapeutic interventions. It's an active process requiring your commitment, drawing out what God has already placed in you (Proverbs 20:5). Think of it as mentoring through His lens: imparting what He's given me while unlocking your potential for healing and growth.

What type of coaching do you provide?

I specialize in Christian mental health and relationship coaching tailored to your specific needs, whether you are navigating marriage challenges, trauma recovery, or boundary-setting amid busy lives. My approach integrates Scripture with proven techniques from cognitive-behavioral, emotion-focused, and solution-oriented modalities. It is forward-focused to help you honor God in your relationships and reclaim the joy He intends.

About Called2Rise LLC

The story of Called2Rise LLC begins in 1993, when Angela W. Startz first dreamed helping individuals heal from emotional wounds and relational strife. Inspired by her own faith journey and a calling to integrate biblical wisdom with practical support, Angela envisioned a space where God's love could transform lives. However, life intervened—family responsibilities, career demands, and personal challenges delayed her pursuit for nearly three decades. Undeterred, Angela turned to formal education to build her foundation. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Christian Counseling from Liberty University, followed by a Master of Arts in Human Services Counseling and Life Coaching, graduating in 2021. During this time, she amassed over 25 certifications in trauma recovery, attachment healing, addiction impacts, and marital restoration. She also became a professional member of Gottman Connect, and successfully blends their empirically tested therapeutic models with Scripture. In 2020, with unwavering support from family, friends, and a network of supporters who believed in her vision, Called2Rise LLC came to fruition! As founder and managing member, Angela launched the company in Plano, Texas, offering Christian mental health and relationship coaching worldwide. Services focus on personal development, divorce support, and trauma recovery, providing online and in-office sessions to empower clients through faith-centered, solution-oriented guidance. By 2021, Angela achieved dual certifications: Certified Christian Life Coach (IBCC) and Certified Master Christian Life Coach (ICCI in 2024). The business grew steadily, earning endorsements for Angela's direct, yet compassionate and empathetic approach. By 2025, with five years in practice, Called2Rise has helped countless individuals reclaim peace, set boundaries, and thrive, fulfilling Angela's long-held dream through God's grace and community backing.
