Hi, I am a counselor and life coach in the Everett area. I’ve been counseling for over 3 years now and most of my clients are women in need i.e. battered women or women with PTSD. Most women that are battered do not have a ton of money and are in such great trauma that counseling is unfortunately the last thing on their mind and something they need most. They live day to day and are just in survivor mode. It’s quite sad actually. So I donate a lot of my time to women in this situation.

My organization is called www.daphnasaves.org where I also have a directory of services that people in need can take advantage of. I am in the process of building out the site every day to make it more and more a master resource center for people in general.

I’ve also started volunteering at the Snohomish County Center for Battered Women www.snococbw.org where over 1500 women just in Everett get refused help every year because of lack of funding. There is a great need there and obviously something I’m extremely passionate about.

I commend anyone that gives time or money to any non-profit out there. There is such a need in our world for us to all band together and help the person we are standing next to. Not enough people actually step out and make a post like this and help make the awareness even greater.

Thank you, and if anyone has questions or comments please feel free to email me directly at daphna@daphnasaves.org
