Theresa Schultz

Founder

Theresa is a Christ-follower, mother, and clinical therapist. With five grown children (two adopted, three biological) and five amazing grandchildren, she has always been drawn to caring for children and families in need.

"For over 30 years, I've served in many roles - foster mom, CASA volunteer, board member, and therapist, each one deepening my passion for helping children heal. As a trauma and attachment specialist, and as a mom to a daughter who experienced attachment disruption, I’ve witnessed the heartbreaking struggle to build safe, connected relationships. Sophia’s Hope Ranch was born from both the pain and the hope of that journey, a reflection of my lifelong calling to help families heal."

"As an adoptive mom of five children, I have seen firsthand the struggles that arise from attachment disruption and the impacts it has on the entire family system. I understand the limitations of the publicly available support networks for children and their families and understand the value of a wrap around, team approach that has the whole family in mind for healing and wholeness. I’m excited to be a part of Sophia’s Hope Ranch and the vision of a better future for hurting families."
