Women & Depression in Africa.
In Africa, depression is the most prevalent mental illness of which women carry the burden of urban development.
Women experience depression at two to three times the rates reported in men. By 2020 depression will be the largest cause of disability for women’ ‘Women & Mental Health Disorders in Urbanization.’ (Akatsa Shibero. 2014).
Our Services
We meet women where they are in this process and offer what ever level of support is needed to make it to the other side, where they can get on with living. We work with a range of mostly female experts to be part of the group that helps you walk this journey. I believe in the power of women helping women. Most importantly, I want you to know that you are not alone. We are here to help you.

And some of the forces coming to destroy families in Africa, are some traditional legalized laws mainly that of polygamy. This is a law without boundaries that permits men to marry whatever number of wives they want.

Thrive in your time of Singleness
To be single in this day and age where you are expected to live in a couple’s world as a Christain calls for being different which is very challenging. And it is difficult to be different – but YES you can be happy and thrive fully as a Single.

Some singles take it harder than others. Many of us are an emotional mess. And we think it’s impossible to feel any differently about being single — to lose the depression, the loneliness, the longing.
As a single person, I needed to understand why God put me here. So after much listening, talking to, and reading the Bible, here’s what I learned.
