Esther has her own personal journey of healing her own experience of childhood neglect and abuse, sexual assault and the hardships resulting from extreme economic hardship, survival and ultimately creating her dream life, free of toxic connections, energies and abuse.
She is a mother of three amazing children and lives on the beautiful, iconic island of Martha’s Vineyard, MA.

At age 18 was held against my will in a mans car and raped repeatedly , impregnated by the rape, 4 1/2 years later the man sued me for custody of a child he never knew the man who raped me , i went through a horrific 5 1/2 years custody battle having to normalize a violent rape in probate court . I won the case and ultimately ended it. I was taken to court hundreds of times over five and 1/2 years and I was re-traumatized again and again by the experience of having to face the man who raped me. I did not report the rape because I was traumatized severely by the experience. The courts normalized what was a life changing event and awarded visitation to a man whom the court's own appointed psychiatrist evaluator said he was a Sociopath and should not be alone with children. It was quite an ordeal.

I fired the attorneys, left my job and focused on squashing the case once and for all to set myself free. It cost me everything. He drained my finances, my health, and my life for years. He ended up abusing my child severely and hardly paid child support.

He got away with so many things and no one would help me or help me protect my child.
