Quality of life Coaching
UNPREDICTABLE & DIFFICULT LIFE CHANGES cause us to question who we are and how we view the world. Confusion and frustration can be the result. It's often in this darkness and devastation that we find our truest sense of purpose, values, and mission.

Strengthening Self-Worth & Esteem
How is your self-talk on your worst day? Do you shame, blame, and should yourself with lectures, insults, and demands?
Learning to value yourself is a skill which strengthens our resolve to have and create healthy relationships, goals, and expectations.
What is Betrayal Trauma?
Betrayal trauma occurs when one partner is betrayed by another in a sexual way and/or relational way with the use of pornography and people. This most often stems from an intimacy disorder which causes an attachment rupture between husband and wife. Through coaching partners find a safety plan to consist of: building a healthy sense of self, tools like boundary work, trigger identification and management, fight-flight-freeze regulation techniques, working through the grieving process, and working through the emotional impact. Goals can then be established based on your dreams for your life. You will not be shamed or blamed if things move slowly. The road is long but worth it!
We offer individual and group support for women.
Boundary Work
Like stacking Jenga blocks building boundaries can be complex. Moving one wrong block can create a domino effect of chaos. The situation can get drastically harder without having a way to know what is coming next. In each individuals story, their need for change and boundaries is unique to them. Often times they have tested the blocks which move easily and which ones are stuck and dependent on other blocks.
Boundary work always first involves assessing your safety physically, emotionally and spiritually. In safe relationships boundaries are naturally understood and respected as both people give and receive love and respect. Safe people can tolerate the word no and maybe.
In relationships with power-control issues, mental health conditions, addictions, and varying personality types, boundaries can become extremely complex. We will help you develop a plan in order to get unstuck and establish safety.
Boundary work involves knowing what your needs and values are and using those to create a plan. There is no formula or guarantee which makes boundary work scary. Though there is no formula we know where to start.
When obstacles and blocks are treated a transition can occur toward healthy communication which often reduces the need for firm boundaries. This is not always possible so our highest priority is your well being first and foremost.

Boundaries
Boundaries allow us to give and receive love in safe spaces.

The damaging affect of porn and infidelity on a marriage can feel impossible to overcome. But there is HOPE! The path to redemption and restored intimacy is wrought with blood, sweat and tears. If the addict is truly willing to change and work a recovery program involving complete honesty, and deep excavation of the root issues that drove their sexual behavior, a marriage that has been destroyed can be resurrected.
This takes TIME and the betrayed spouse will need to set the pace. They will be disoriented and reeling upon discovery. The range of emotions from shock to deep sadness to rage will be like a rollercoaster. Lots of empathy and support from a betrayal trauma trained professional and a group like Women in the Battle are imperative for healing the wounds of betrayal.

I have come to realize with partners that aside from cultural binds that may hold them in fear of change, there is often a break down with their own relationships with self. I work on this simultaneously with partners.
Self worth means talking nice to yourself, seeing your history and knowing you are trustworthy, respecting your time and feelings, knowing you have innate worth, and believing in your potential. Negative self talk starts at a very young age. Negative film also runs early in life. The pattern can be broken with a dialectical approach of mindfulness training, embracing change, and embracing acceptance.
