Hi. I’m Jenny.
Jesus follower. Empty nest mama of 3.

Christian Estranged Mothers Support Group founder.
Lover of micro cottages, snow and decaffeinated hot tea.
I’m both a Certified Cognitive Behavioral Coach and a Certified Family Estrangement Coach, with specialized training in the unique challenges of family estrangement.. I help Christian estranged mothers increase their chances of reconciling with their adult children, and live happier lives in the meantime.
My coaching style is Biblical, trauma-sensitive, loving and honest.
My family estrangement journey…
I remember the surreal ache when my adult daughter rejected the Christian Faith, and then estranged from me.
The enemy had already tried to crush me through the loss of my parents, the death of my oldest son and the mental health struggles of my youngest child. And then, estrangement came too.
I felt rejected. Betrayed. Worthless as a mother.
I cycled between arguing with my daughter and begging her to give me another chance. I had made some mistakes as a mom, yes — but I never dreamed one of my children would dislike me to that extent, or want to step completely out of my life.
It felt like I had been thrown away. Abandoned.
The timing only deepened the wound. I was still grieving losing my mom to cancer.
Generational trauma ran deep, and I hadn’t fully unpacked it. My heart felt emotionally shattered.
I tried working with a secular therapist. He was okay in some ways, but he made it clear that our worldviews weren’t the same. I felt judged for being a Christian, and the environment did not feel emotionally safe.
Eventually, I stopped going to those counseling sessions with him. And the question seemed to loom… “Now what?”
But God.
The call to become an Estrangement Coach
Jesus showed me the path to reconciliation with my estranged daughter. He taught me how to live from a place of peace and God-given strength — no matter what my adult child thought or said.
It wasn’t long before I felt a clear call to walk alongside other Christian estranged mothers. My mission is to help you open the door to reconciliation with your adult child, while also finding healing, hope, and joy in the waiting season.
I know happiness may feel impossibly far away right now. But hear me, dear one: it is not only possible — it is God’s will for you to be free from the cruel bondage of family estrangement.
I know what worked and what didn’t. And while I’ve received specialized training in family estrangement from experts like Dr. Joshua Coleman and Dr. Becca Bland, this is not just theory to me. I’ve lived it.
And I can help you figure it out.
