About Wade harris
Story coach
Wade Harris has been married to his wife Amy for 25 years. They have 4 children and 1 grandchild, and have resided in State College, Pennsylvania for about 9 years.
Much of Wade’s life has been shaped by walking closely with people in their stories.
He earned his M.Div. from Southern Seminary in 2009 and completed Levels One, Two, and Three of training with the ReStory Institute for StoryWork in 2024–2025. He has also participated twice in the Pure Freedom Master Class, receiving training in inner healing prayer.
Beyond formal training, Wade’s own trials, failures, and walk with the Father have driven him to pursue healing through counseling, a counseling intensive, and StoryWork with ReStory. He does this work not as an observer, but as someone who has walked his own story toward greater healing and freedom. That lived experience—doing the hard work himself—is a central part of what allows him to walk with others.

What You Can Expect
Storywork Coaching is an intentional, reflective, relational process. Together we will:
Enter your stories with honor, honesty, kindness, and curiosity.
Explore how past experiences shape present interpretations and relationships.
Name what has been lost, stolen, protected, or misunderstood.
Attend to how God meets you in your story.
Coaching sessions are collaborative and paced according to your capacity. With each session, you will gain clarity, understanding, and deeper connection to your true self. In general Storywork is not a fast process but it is effective over time.
-
Storywork Coaching is not therapy, clinical counseling, or crisis care. While our work may be healing, it is not mental health treatment, and I do not diagnose, provide medical advice, or offer clinical interventions. If at any time you need therapeutic support, I will help you find a licensed provider.
