About Camille Cates

Helping women find hope in life's hardest places—and equipping Christian leaders to care for them with biblical wisdom.

I'm Camille Cates—a biblical counselor, nonprofit leader, author, speaker, and ministry consultant. For more than 30 years, I've had the privilege of walking alongside women and teens facing pregnancy crises, sexual trauma, grief, and other difficult seasons of life.​ Whether I'm writing, speaking, counseling, or consulting, my passion is helping people discover that the gospel of Jesus holds real hope for life's hardest struggles.

The Story Behind the Ministry

Much of my ministry has been shaped by God's faithfulness in my own story. As a young woman, I experienced sexual trauma, an abortion, and profound grief following the tragic murder of my infant daughter. In the midst of those devastating seasons, Jesus met me with His grace, brought healing through His Word, and transformed my deepest wounds into opportunities to encourage others with the hope of the gospel.
