Mental illnesses do not always begin with a diagnosis. It can begin with an accumulation of emotions from, disappointments, grief, heartbreak, pain, and sadness. Being mentally and physically bombarded with traumatic experiences can cause imbalances in your thinking. Everyone experiences some sort of mental health crisis in their lifetime. It is what you can do to survive those experiences that matter most. Embrace your healing, it is a choice. Choose You!

My journey began with grieving for my mother during and after her terminal illness from 2007 to 2009. In 2014 I was injured on my job. In December 2015 while recovering my grandson was seriously injured. In February 2016 my father passed away from prostate cancer. Three months later on May 13 2016 on his birthday, my brother died of a massive heart attack. My brother suffered from schizophrenia and bipolar disease. His death was the result of his inability to accept the needed medical care for his medical conditions due to his mental health disease. In 2017 these major life changes are what caused my diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder.

The information on this website continues to support my healing and I hope it can be that for you as well. In addition to everything I’ve experienced during my healing, two very wise, professional, and loving women were very instrumental during my healing journey. My therapist. who helped me understand my diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder and how to manage it, and my Reiki Master and teacher, who taught me how Reiki (energy healing) helps relieve stress and anxiety.

Peace and Love Always!
