Empowering women to heal in body, mind, and spirit.

My Story
For over forty years, I lived with constant chaos, abuse, and in a state of dysregulation. I took care of others, but I had no idea how to take care of myself.
My body was sick. My mind was tormented. My spirit was broken.
I endured abuse of every kind and barely crawled through each day. I was sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Since 2016, I have worked intentionally to HEAL. I pursued therapy, became a certified survivor advocate through Give Her Wings Academy, and launched a Facebook support group for survivors of domestic violence and spiritual abuse.
Held & Healed — held by Jesus is what I have always been. Healed is what I will be when I meet Him face to face. The "&" is where I am living, here and now.
The thing that lights me up, the thing that excites me, is healing and helping others heal — in body, mind, and spirit. My pain is not in vain if I can help others gain their healing.
What I Believe
These values guide everything I do at Held & Healed.

It is vital to expose abuse of all kinds and offer solutions that empower and equip survivors to rebuild.
