Find your Life Coach!

Katie has been a Mental Health Coach for six years and has been a passionate advocate for mental health for over 15 years. As the founder of Healing with Katie and Black Rose New Beginnings (BRNB), her mission is to bring mental health awareness to individuals from all walks of life.

BRNB was created with the vision of empowering individuals who are driven to support others on their healing journeys. By building a strong coaching team, Healing with Katie and BRNB can reach and impact more lives.

While we are not therapists, we are certified Life Coaches with diverse backgrounds, advanced education, and invaluable personal experience. The unique role of a Life Coach is to serve as a guide and mentor, helping clients rediscover their confidence, build self-esteem, and stay accountable to their goals. We empower individuals to pursue their dreams—ones that once felt out of reach—by fostering self-reflection, personal growth, and resilience.

The greatest reward is witnessing the transformation in our clients—the success stories that emerge when individuals take control of their healing and step into their full potential.

Hey friend! My name is Mary and I’m an Emotional Intelligence Life Coach! A little bit about me: I attempted suicide at the age of 11. I suffered from severe depression, anxiety, and intense feelings of abandonment. I felt alone, like nobody cared, like I just couldn't do "life". I also struggled with a personality disorder that left me feeling like I had no sense of who I was as a person. Every emotion I felt was HUGE and overwhelming. The extreme anxiety felt like the world was constantly closing in on me and everything felt scary. I finally began my healing journey after a very painful breakup that was the result of my behaviors. I was sick of living in an internal world filled with unhealed chaos! That was in 2018 and I haven't looked back since. My purpose now is to continue my lifelong healing journey while sharing what I learn along the way with others. I want to remind people that they're not alone and I want to give them hope by providing a safe space for them to heal and evolve. I can’t wait to meet you!

Overcoming adversity, I found my calling in helping others through their struggles. With a hard-knock life behind me, I found my purpose in empowering others to overcome adversity. My rare gift for forging heartfelt connections allows me to get to the core of people's struggles so they can see their own strength more clearly. Unafraid to mine the humor in my checkered past, my self-deprecating wit makes my struggles relatable and my openness contagiously endearing. Join me on this healing adventure as I help people put in the work to build the lives, they deserve.

’m Charity and I am a life coach. I believe in the healing of shared experience can help people achieve their goals in life. I believe we all come from something that that doesn’t have to define our existence. I want to help people get unstuck from the stuff that weighs them down and prevents them from becoming the best versions of themselves.
I have been through a ton of bad things from child abuse, domestic violence, addiction, sexual assault, generational trauma, life changing medical diagnosis and general life dysfunction. All of those things were not positive experiences however, it made me who I am today. As a person who’s came out of the chaos, I believe my purpose is to guide others out of the chaos now.

As a survivor of lifelong trauma, including but not limited to physical, sexual, mental, emotional and drug abuse, suicidal thoughts, ideation and attempts, CPTSD, BPD, depression,  anxiety, and parental grief, I am here to help you shine a light on your path to "something better". 

My mission is to take you on a transformative journey of self-discovery to unleash your true hidden self, desires and dreams and to coach you in a way best suited for your individual needs in order for you to embrace all that you are and all that you never knew you could be and more. 
 

You do not have to walk alone in this journey of life. I have felt the effects of mental illness both personally and professionally. Suicide, addiction, and mental illness have taken more loved ones than I would have ever imagined. My passion and focus are fueled by knowing that I can help grow individuals in their personal healing journey toward a stronger foundation. I am here to collaborate with you in finding a path of wellness and structure, allowing you to create your beautiful story.
