Healing Hearts. Strengthening Communities. Empowering Purpose.
“The Peer Trauma Responder Program was created to empower youth to become emotional first aid supporters, healers and leaders they once needed. It’s about healing from within and stepping into purpose—not just surviving, but transforming pain into strength. Through PTRP, we’re building healing leaders who show up for their communities with courage, compassion, and the tools to lead. This is what it means to be the YOU you needed.”
— Crystal Henderson, Founder
“After the death of my son, I didn’t know how to live again. But Path to Purpose gave me more than support—they gave me tools, community, and faith. I still grieve, but now I grieve with hope.”
— Carla B., Client
“When my mom passed, I felt completely alone. I didn’t know how to talk about it or even where to begin. Path to Purpose gave me a space where I could finally breathe. I met people who understood me, and I learned how to lead from my pain instead of hide from it. Now I help others who’ve been through the same thing.”
— Marcus R., Age 18

Services
At Path to Purpose Healing Group, we offer a range of trauma-informed services designed to support emotional wellness, build resilience, and empower purpose. Whether you're seeking peer support, grief counseling, or holistic wellness programs, we’re here to walk with you on your healing journey.
Peer Trauma Responder Program
The Peer Trauma Responder Program (PTRP) is our signature youth movement rooted in healing, purpose, and leadership. This trauma-informed initiative equips teens and young adults (ages 16–24) with the skills and strength to support one another through grief, trauma, and community violence—because no one should have to navigate pain alone.
PTRP goes beyond peer support. We empower youth to become healing leaders—resilient, purpose-driven, and prepared to create lasting change in their schools, homes, and communities.
Through this 8-week program, participants gain:
-
Leadership development & team-building skills
-
Emotional first aid & trauma response training
-
Active listening and communication tools
-
Peer mentoring experience
-
Conflict resolution and de-escalation strategies
-
Mental wellness and self-care practices
-
Opportunities to lead healing events and projects
We believe our youth are not just survivors—they are future leaders of healing and hope. PTRP gives them the training, tools, and safe space to walk boldly in that truth—transforming pain into purpose and trauma into testimony.
Grief and Trauma Counseling
We offer compassionate, trauma-informed counseling for individuals and families navigating the pain of grief and loss. Whether you’ve experienced the death of a loved one, gun violence, or emotional trauma, we provide a safe, supportive space to process, heal, and grow. Sessions are designed with cultural sensitivity, faith-based guidance (if desired), and holistic tools for personal restoration.
Heling Events & Welness Programs (Coming Soon)
Something powerful is on the way…
Our healing events and wellness programs are designed to awaken the whole person—heart, mind, body, and soul. From intimate workshops to community-wide gatherings, we’re creating uplifting experiences where youth and families can pause, breathe, move, and begin again.
Healing is not an overnight process. It is a daily cleansing of pain, accepting the past, and renewing our thoughts for a better future.
