About Barbara Lepson
My name is Barbara Lepson, and my journey into counseling began in 1982 when I first encountered Jesus. That encounter awakened in me a deep desire for wholeness in my life and sent me on a path of healing and personal growth.
In my pursuit of emotional and physical wholeness, I explored various ministry and counseling modalities. While each offered help and insight, none brought the deep and lasting resolution I was seeking. It wasn’t until I learned about dissociative parts through counseling and then training with Peter Toth that I finally experienced the emotional and physical healing I’d been seeking. My childhood dissociative trauma was truly resolved.
Out of a growing desire to help others experience the same freedom and healing, I founded Upwards Counseling in 2012. Since then, my ongoing partnership with God has continually expanded my understanding of the complex nature of dissociative trauma. This journey has shaped my knowledge, skill and expertise, enabling me to help clients successfully resolve issues that can otherwise be overwhelming and debilitating.
