Welcome
Like many of you, I have looked at the devastating effects of severe trauma and had to ask “Do I let the dark swallow me whole and destroy me or do I hold on to the light and find a way to move forward?” Build on the Light is about how to find and own the good in our lives in spite of the trauma we've endured. We can find light and hope and ultimately thrive in the life that is uniquely our own.

Building trust—or relearning to trust—after sexual trauma starts with understanding and respecting your own boundaries. It’s important to recognize what you are comfortable with and where you need to draw lines to protect yourself. The act of trusting others involves being selective about whom you allow close to you. You have the power to choose your team—those people who respect your boundaries and provide support.
