Spiritual Makeovers: Turner Professional Group partners with new practitioner, Carrah Quigley

We want to extend a very warm 'welcome' to Carrah Quigley. She now offices at TPG and offers a unique and fascinating new service, 'Spiritual Makeovers'. With her fire-red hair, penchant for fashion, and what my Mom use to describe as the 'gift of gab', Carrah is a warm and charismatic spirit who immediately places a person at ease. Somewhere between a hip gal next door and a spiritual facilitator, Carrah seems to be that perfect balance of a listener and guide.

Our patients are unique and complicated people. We strive to honor and incorporate the religious beliefs and spiritual practices of our patients. Adding Carrah's speciality as a religious expert and spiritual leader fits our holistic health model and will benefit our patients immensely. For many of our patients their belief system is a critical part of their life, celebrating that aspect of our patients just makes sense. I see Carrah helping clients who come to TPG for therapy but struggle with aspects of their 'religion of origin'... that religious teaching from their youth. Though they may not practice their faith, patients of ours can have painful leftovers or misinformation about their faith that hinders their wellness journey.

Carrah Quigley,
Spiritual Counselor &
Life Coach
Since the age of 17, Carrah has explored the different religions of the world and how they deeply inform personal faith. Throughout her travels and experience in different religious environments she has accumulated a wealth of knowledge both academic and personal. As a spiritual counselor devoted to helping others, she aides others in creating a spiritual life that is fulfilling and uniquely crafted to meet their personal needs, what she calls, “Spiritual Makeovers.” Over the last ten years, her awareness has also turned to helping those inflicted with spiritual wounds. With her academic knowledge and intuitive counseling she provides a deeper understanding of how to heal wounds without abandoning faith. She holds a Masterʼs Degree, with distinction, in Ecumenics from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland and a Bachelorʼs in Religious Studies from University of Arizona. She studied at Union Theological Seminary in New York and completed graduate courses in the History of Islam and Christianity at UMKC and Conflict Resolution Studies in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She is currently studying to become a Certified Spiritual Counselor through the American Institute of Health Care Professionals.
