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.

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.

Caitlin is the heart of behind-the-scenes support at Healing with Katie and Black Rose New Beginnings. With over 16 years of customer service experience and a personal journey of healing, she ensures that both clients and coaches are fully supported, cared for, and connected every step of the way.

Her warmth, professionalism, and strong attention to detail help create a seamless and welcoming experience—from first contact to ongoing care. Whether coordinating schedules, streamlining communication, or offering a compassionate ear, Caitlin plays a vital role in keeping our mission of healing moving forward with excellence.

Driven by empathy and grounded in experience, Caitlin brings both structure and soul to everything she does.

Kathy brings over a decade of experience as a passionate mental health advocate, with a deeply personal mission rooted in both service and healing. As a veteran and a survivor of childhood loss—having lost her mother to suicide at the age of seven—Kathy has turned her pain into purpose by dedicating her life to helping others know they are never alone.

Her coaching approach is grounded, compassionate, and action-focused. Kathy works closely with individuals to uncover what truly matters to them, set meaningful goals, build clear, achievable plans—and most importantly, walk beside them every step of the way.

Whether you're navigating grief, transition, trauma, or simply seeking direction, Kathy offers a safe, empowering space where growth and self-discovery can thrive.

Life Coach & Spiritual Wellness Guide
As someone who has walked through deep personal trauma—including suicidal ideation and attempts, abusive relationships, early childhood molestation, addiction, and alcoholism—I am living proof that your past does not define your future. There is so much more to life than pain—and I’m here to help you find that more.

Through a blend of spiritual guidance, inner healing, mindfulness practices, and heart-centered coaching, I help individuals reconnect with their truth, discover their passions, and build a meaningful life rooted in self-worth and purpose.

My coaching is deeply personal and intuitive. By listening to your story and understanding who you are at your core, we’ll work together to uncover your core values and use them to illuminate your path forward. Healing is possible—and I’m honored to walk beside you on your journey to becoming whole.

Hey friend! I’m Mary—and I’m here to remind you that healing is possible, and you are never alone.

My journey began in darkness. I attempted suicide at just 11 years old, struggling with severe depression, anxiety, and overwhelming feelings of abandonment. I battled a personality disorder that left me disconnected from myself and drowning in emotions that felt too big to carry. Life was terrifying, and I felt lost.

In 2018, after a painful breakup caused by my own unhealed patterns, I made the decision to begin my healing journey. I was tired of living in internal chaos. Since then, I’ve committed to becoming a student of healing, growth, and emotional intelligence—and I haven’t looked back.

Today, as an Emotional Intelligence Life Coach, my purpose is to walk alongside others who are navigating their own storms. I offer a safe, judgment-free space where clients can be seen, heard, and supported as they process emotions, build self-awareness, and reconnect with their sense of self.

Healing isn’t a straight line, but you don’t have to walk it alone. I can’t wait to meet you, hear your story, and help you evolve into the most authentic, empowered version of you.

Life Coach & Resilience Mentor
With a hard-knock life behind me, I’ve turned adversity into purpose. My own journey through life’s toughest challenges led me to a calling—helping others rise above their struggles and rediscover their inner strength.

What sets me apart is my rare ability to form deep, heartfelt connections with people. I don’t just listen—I see you. I get to the root of what’s holding you back and help you uncover the strength that’s already within you.

I’m not afraid to laugh at my own past. My self-deprecating humor and openness make even the heaviest stories feel a little lighter—and a lot more human. I believe healing doesn’t always have to be heavy—it can also be honest, empowering, and even a little fun.

Join me on this healing adventure. Let’s do the work together to build the life you truly deserve.

Charity – Life Coach & Trauma-Informed Mentor
I’m Charity, and I believe in the healing power of shared experience. My mission as a life coach is to help others break free from the pain, patterns, and past experiences that keep them stuck—and guide them toward becoming the most empowered version of themselves.

I know what it’s like to live through darkness. My journey has taken me through childhood abuse, domestic violence, addiction, sexual assault, generational trauma, a life-changing medical diagnosis, and more. While none of those experiences were easy, they shaped me into the resilient, purpose-driven person I am today.

I don’t believe your past has to define your future. I've come out of the chaos, and now I’m here to walk with you as you find your way out, too. With empathy, honesty, and a deep understanding of trauma, I’ll help you uncover your strength, rewrite your story, and reclaim your power.
