About the Group Facilitator: 

Hayley, a licensed professional counselor associate, has a passion for those who are undergoing or have experienced divorce. She comes from a divorced family herself and has even had to go to some support groups and counseling for it. “I’ve had good experiences with professionals and bad experiences. I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t” Hayley states. Her goal is to combine her experience with her clinical background to foster a group that not only processes the grief but builds confidence in who Christ says they are.

As the group facilitator, Hayley will help create a therapeutic space for participants to feel safe and supported while they work together to overcome challenges. She will encourage participation and make sure they feel heard and understood, help resolve conflicts as they come up, and promote understanding through exploring different perspectives and strategies.

​​

Main Idea: What you think and feel matters. Now is the time to be confident in who you are in Christ and know how to appropriately and effectively use the voice He has given you. Which involves knowing the difference between feelings and truth, God’s truth.

​

Theme Verse: 

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. 

– 2 Corinthians 1:3-5
