The Lighthouse
You are not alone. These resources exist to help you find safe ground.
There are moments when what you need is beyond what a coaching session can hold. Moments that need a hotline, a shelter, a therapist, a crisis line, or a community that specializes in exactly what you are carrying. This page exists for those moments.
I have curated these resources with care for women navigating domestic violence, narcissistic abuse, coercive control, spiritual harm, racial trauma, and the particular complexity of healing when multiple forms of harm have overlapped in your life.
You deserve support that meets you where you are. These organizations and resources exist to do exactly that.
If you are in immediate danger, please call 911.
