Welcome to April Unfiltered
At April Unfiltered, we provide faith-centered coaching that empowers survivors of marital sexual violence to RESTORE their sense of self, reclaim their agency, and anchor their future on a firm foundation of truth and grace.
Coaching
I work exclusively with women who are out of the marriage and picking up the pieces after living through marital sexual abuse, coercive control, and spiritual betrayal.
Most of the women who find their way to me were taught by their churches or families to submit, keep quiet, and protect the home at all costs. You survived the storm and you got out, but your body doesn’t know it yet. You’re still living on high alert, carrying a heavy weight of shame that was never yours, and trying to figure out who you actually are under all that armor.
Getting out of the house is only the first step. Actually feeling safe in your own skin again takes real work and a clear plan.
I don't offer vague platitudes, toxic positivity, or "just pray about it" advice. I give you a practical, step-by-step roadmap to get your life and your nervous system back. Together, we work on:
-
Calming your body: Teaching your nervous system that you are no longer in danger so you can finally stop living in survival mode.
-
Breaking down the shame: Unpacking bad theology and spiritual gaslighting so you can hand the guilt back to the person who actually earned it.
-
Reclaiming your voice: Setting real boundaries, finding your confidence, and stepping back into the strength God gave you.
-
Through my 8-week program, RESTORE, I help you rebuild your foundation from the ground up so you can raise your kids in peace, focus on your work, and live completely unfiltered.
1 Peter 5:10
In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation.
