I’m a Certified Cognitive Behavioral Coach and a Certified Family Estrangement Coach. I specialize in helping Christian estranged moms increase their chances of reconciling with their adult children, and live happier lives in the meantime.
My coaching style is Biblical, trauma-sensitive, loving and honest.
I remember the surreal feeling when my adult daughter rejected the Christian Faith and estranged from me.
The devil had already tried to level me through the loss of my parents, the death of my oldest son and mental health challenges of my youngest child. Then came the estrangement from my daughter.
I felt rejected, betrayed and like I was worthless as a mother.
I cycled between arguing with my daughter and begging her to give me another chance.
I made some wrong choices as a mom, but I had never dreamed one of my children would dislike me to that extent, or want to basically exit my life.
I felt like I had been thrown away and abandoned.
It didn’t help that I had been through years of issues with my own mom, and I had just lost her to cancer.
There was generational trauma that I hadn’t fully unpacked, and I felt emotionally shattered.
I started working with a secular therapist. He was nice enough in some ways, but he let me know that our worldviews were not the same. I felt judged by him because I am a Christian, and the overall environment didn’t feel supportive or emotionally safe.
I fired the therapist. But I had healing work to do, and lots of inner pain to untangle from. “Now what?”
Jesus showed me the path to reconciliation with my estranged daughter, and He taught me how to come from a place of peace and God-given power, independent of what my adult child thought or said.
It wasn’t long until I felt the call to help Christian estranged mothers increase their chance of reconciliation with their adult child, and to experience healing, hope and happiness while they’re in the waiting season.
I know that the concept of happiness might feel so far from you right now, but hear me on this: it is not only possible, but it is God’s will for you to break free from the cruel bondage of family estrangement.
I know what worked and what didn’t. And while I received specialized training in family estrangement from one of the leading experts on the subject (Dr. Joshua Coleman), this is more than theory to me. I’ve lived it.
And I can help you figure it out.
