Who We Are
We are a women-led nonprofit dedicated to supporting women who have been impacted by trauma. Our mission is to walk alongside women on their healing journeys by providing compassionate, holistic care — entirely free of charge.
We understand that healing from trauma is not a one-size-fits-all process. That’s why we offer a range of integrative services designed to nurture the mind, body, and spirit. From massage therapy and holistic reflexology to Reiki, yoga, animal therapy, and personal coaching, we create personalized paths to recovery that empower each woman to reconnect with her inner strength.
​
In addition to hands-on healing modalities, we offer guidance on natural wellness tools, including vitamins and supplements, to help bring clarity, balance, and stability to each woman’s everyday life.
​
At our core, we believe in the resilience of women — and we are here to hold space, provide care, and offer hope as they navigate the journey toward healing and wholeness.
Our Mission
Our mission is to offer women impacted by trauma, holistic healing services at no charge. We offer a safe place with trauma informed practitioners that help women on their healing journey. We are here to help women walk through their healing process.
Our Vision
Our vision is to empower women as they go through their healing process.
How it all began...
​​
We connect women without financial resources to the holistic services they need to heal.
​
Give to Heal was started Connie Doe and Ann Strickland in 2019. They started Give to Heal because they both have a deep desire to support women on their healing journeys.
​
Connie, a survivor of domestic abuse, once felt shattered and disconnected. A thoughtful friend gifted her a massage, which led to tears and a profound sense of emotional release and safety. Recognizing the importance of holistic healing for her recovery, Connie faced the challenge of affording such services. As she began to heal, she explored the connection between body and mind, ultimately becoming a certified yoga instructor, Body Talk Practitioner, Licensed Reflexologist, and TIMBo facilitator, while also training in EFT and HLN. Having experienced the transformative power of these modalities, she is passionate about their healing effects.
As Connie established her practice, primarily serving women, she identified a significant barrier: the financial obstacles that often limit access to holistic healthcare. Determined to make a difference, she sought ways to provide no-cost holistic services to women affected by trauma, aiming to create a supportive environment for healing and empowerment.
​
Ann, with her experience as a leader in spiritual communities, musician, and fellow yoga teacher, felt aligned and inspired by Connie's desire to help. They put their heads together and created a way to help women in the community access healing services. Give to Heal was born because both Connie and Ann have a deep belief in the power of somatic therapies to support and empower women, and they believe optimum health and wellness is a human right.

We are a 501(c)3 created by women, for women, offering holistic healing services to women impacted by trauma.
