1 Healing Workshops

Time To Heal Workshop
Learn a biblical based approach to break your silence and travel the path of healing.  Step out of the darkness and into the light of victory, relinquishing the shame and guilt associated with being sexually abused as a child.  It is time to rebuke the lies of Satan and clothe your self with the love of Christ.  Learn how to effectively support survivors.

Boundaries
Healthy boundaries are important to emotional health.  Learn how childhood disappointments and abuse create unhealthy boundaries lasting into adulthood.  Learn to recognize these behaviors and how strong Godly boundaries can help to build healthy relationships, self confidence and strong emotional health.

Freedom in Forgiveness
Many survivors are kept in bondage by forgiveness. Maybe you struggle with forgiving God, yourself, and your abuser. There is freedom in being able to forgive. Forgiveness is not a feeling; it is a commitment that requires compassion and a close walk with God. Learn Biblical principles of forgiveness and how you can release your pain and walk in victory!

Survivor Struggles in the Workplace
A survivor of child sexual abuse graduates high school/college and gets a job.  This workshop provides valuable information for the adult survivor and colleagues of the adult survivor to help them understand how behaviors, learned during, and as a result of, the abuse, can continue to impact workplace relationships and success.  It also highlights approaches that can help the survivor to minimize negative effects on career plans and sustain the healing process.

Redeem the Dream
The trauma of childhood sexual abuse stunts the emotional growth of a survivor. Often, the dreams God has planted in our hearts are stolen through the shame, guilt, unforgiveness, and many self-destructive behaviors. It is time to REDEEM THE DREAM God has planted in your heart as part of your journey of healing. Learn valuable steps in re-discovering the plan and purpose for your life.

Courage to Speak
