Kathy’s Story

Who I Am & Where I’ve Been:

I am a 41 year old woman. I have never married, but I have chosen abusive boyfriends and controlling people to surround me, because of the abuse I suffered at the hands of my father. I have always believed that I was not worthy to be loved so I’m constantly seeking approval from others and tend to latch on to anyone who show me any kind of attention.

How Thrive Has Helped:

Thrive has done so much to help me realize and understand the abuse I have been through and the choices I have made because of it. I finally can see all the pieces of my life coming together, and I am very excited to be moving into my own place and away from my abusive father. They have never judged me and always made me feel welcome and loved!
