Kingdom Daughters Healing
Hi Beloved, I'm Shyteria 🤎
I am a native Memphian and the founder of Kingdom Daughters Healing, a faith-based restoration ministry devoted to helping women heal from trauma, understand their story, restore emotional wounds, and reconnect with their God-given identity.
I walk alongside women of faith, including those who feel close to God and those who feel distant or unsure of where they stand with Him. Wherever you are in your journey, you are welcomed with compassion, grace, and care.
When Faith Didn't Feel Like Enough
There was a season in my life when I quietly stepped away from my faith because I felt unseen in my pain. I was carrying the weight of abuse, emotional wounds, and deep inner distress, and I did not yet have the language or guidance to understand emotional pain or how trauma affects the mind and body.
At church, I learned how to nurture my spiritual life, but emotional pain and how it lives in the body were not areas where I had access to tools or support at the time. I learned how to serve and obey, but not how to feel regulated, supported, or whole.
Searching for Healing Without Direction
Over time, I began to believe that my faith alone was not enough to reach the wounded places inside me. I experienced seasons of deep despair, abandonment, and emotional exhaustion.
Eventually, I stepped away from faith communities and began searching for healing on my own. I turned to therapy, self-help resources, journaling, and in-depth trauma research, each offering healing in different ways.
Yet something still felt missing. I longed for restoration that reached deeper than strategies or techniques.
I didn’t grow up with language for healing or mental health. In my family, these things were not openly understood or discussed. As the oldest daughter and a first-generation cycle breaker, I carried much quietly and learned through my own searching.
When I came to understand that trauma had shaped my life in significant ways, I felt unsure of where to begin. I wanted to rebuild, to heal, and to feel whole, but I had no roadmap.
The Turning Point
Beyond wanting relief, I needed understanding. I wanted to know what was happening inside me, what to expect, and how healing actually unfolds.
I needed a blueprint.
Instead, I found fragmented information that left me unsure if I was navigating healing the "right" way. Like many women, I pieced things together the best I could, hoping I was moving in the right direction.
Today, that longing has become part of my calling.
I now help women create the Healing Blueprint I never had — a grounded, faith-centered roadmap that brings clarity, direction, and reassurance as they navigate their healing journey.
Healing is still a process, but it does not have to be confusing or directionless.
How God Gently Led Me Back
After years of questioning, distance, and even a season of atheism, God gently drew me back. Not through pressure or fear, but through His patience, grace, and quiet presence.
Through Scripture, prayer, and learning how trauma affects the brain and nervous system, I began to experience healing that reached deeper than anything I had tried before. I came to understand that every part of us matters to God: mind, body, and spirit.
Faith and science were never meant to compete.
They were always meant to work together.
My Calling to Walk with Women
Today, I walk alongside women as they begin making sense of their pain and rediscover safety, clarity, and connection with God.
I hold a Master of Education in Neuroscience and Trauma and bring together academic understanding, faith, and lived experience as a trauma survivor. My work is grounded in education, compassion, and deep respect for the healing process.
At Kingdom Daughters Healing, I teach that women do not have to choose between their faith and understanding how trauma works. When held together, they can lead to renewal, peace, and transformation.
You Are Not Here by Accident
If you are reading this, I want you to hear this gently and clearly: God has a way of guiding His daughters toward healing when their hearts are ready.
You do not have to walk this journey alone.
There is hope.
There is restoration.
There is a safe place for your heart to heal.
If you feel ready to begin, I would be honored to walk alongside you.
With love & grace,
Shyteria
