Survivor Stories
Testimonies of Hope & Healing
At Mending the Soul, we take healing to another level. We understand that the depth of pain that trauma and abuse bring is never one dimensional.
Using holistic and sustainable models, we take healing deeper to bring visibility to the hidden root of trauma. To heal is to mend from the inside.
When you’re whole from within, there’s a visible difference that always shows.
