Reaching out to other child abuse survivors

Safe House Room
Occupation: Author

Gender: Female

Tell us about yourself: I am a wife and mother, a business woman, and a published author. I have a M.A. in counseling and love to be with people, hear their stories, and share their joys and their sorrows.

Tell us about your child abuse cause:
I am a survivor of violence and victimization, including incest. I have shared my story with individuals and groups. I am preparing to reach out to others with my current book (due out in October 2008) and other opportunities that may be presented. Rick Warren says, "God never wastes a pain." If this is so—I have a lot to share. A lot of pain, a lot of healing, and a journey that is still in process.
