Empowerment
We currently offer support services for those who are seeking to attain, develop, maintain, and protect their self-esteem. We are trauma informed, LGBTQ+ friendly, and there are no requirements for our programs other than that you be over the age of 18. We understand that their is a need to feel connected to others while also maintaining your own unique story that shapes you. We do not promote the victimization mentality. This program is ideal for people who have began the healing process but are finding they are stuck due to unresolved self-esteem issues, emotional processing, and other blockages. Being on the healing journey is not a requirement. We do not diagnose or treat mental health issues issues. Instead, we provide tools, support, structure, and a safe place for you to do the self-esteem repair on your own. Our closed-general pilot program is almost over.

About our Founder: Kaheeka Dawn
I use to say my trauma made me who I am and I meant that in a good way. Then one day I realized, My trauma did not make me. My response to that trauma did. My response was love, forgiveness, and empathy. You can find this light, this peace, even if you were born into darkness, as I was.
I use to hate myself so much, I even hated my own name- Dawn. In high school I took the pen name Dusk, thanks to my cousin. I grew to hate that as well. But now-- I love even my name. You see, Dawn and Dusk can only exists in the space between Darkness and Light- and that is my spot. I am most comfortable walking alongside you while you are leaving your darkness and entering your light.
I spent a lifetime (40 out of 43 years) dissociated and trapped in survival mode-- but I didn't know it. I am now in post-survival mode and am thriving. I have managed to conquer C-PTSD, extreme dissociation, body dysmorphia, social anxiety, insomnia, generalized anxiety, specific phobias, and abandonment issues. It all started with finding a shred of self-esteem.
I spent a lifetime too numb to "feel" life-- but I didn't know it. I felt fearless and loved adrenaline-- but fear motivated and controlled a majority of my life. I was numb though....I couldn't feel it, until I could.
I masked so well I fooled myself. But in fairness, if I was dissociated by age 3... emotions would not have been fully understood nor would I have developed a strong self-identity. I had no clue I was siphoning other peoples happiness and not experiencing authentic happiness.
Yah, it's not like that anymore.
If this sounds familiar, if you think maybe this is where you are.... please, reach out to me! I have the education and experience to be able to support you as you walk down your healing path. I cannot do the work for you- only you can walk your path. However, Silver Dove can be a nightlight in times of dark. While my story is mine, and your story is yours..... I understand your struggles. We are different feathers on the same bird and I would love to help you clean your wings and fly! I know how to do that now.......
