In September 2018, I was granted guardianship of my thirteen year old niece. When she arrived, I learned that she was bipolar, had PTSD, and autistic. I left my job to focus full time on her mental health. I partnered with counselors, therapists and phycologists to manage her well-being. I home schooled her, working on core subjects
Having ministry school training, I worked with her on emotion management and identity. She grew more stable and began making friends as well as reconciling with her immediate family. Four years after arriving on my doorstep, she returned home to her family recovered. This experience has given me compassion for children and what they go through as well as families in need of assistance to thrive.
