The Beloved story...

Beloved Restoration is a women's only faith based 12-step recovery meeting. All women are welcome to join our meetings no matter what they are struggling with. This includes alcohol, drugs, codependency, shopping, anxiety, eating disorders, sex and love addiction or an adult child of a dysfunctional home, or currently supporting a partner, spouse or child the struggles. Our recovery meetings are a fellowship of women who share their experience, strength, and hope with each other, in hopes that with God's help and each other, we can recover from those areas that are causing bondage. Beloved meetings are a safe place for women to share authentically and vulnerably.

    Founder & Executive Director

    Natalie has her Masters in Ministry and Leadership from Western Seminary. Natalie launched Beloved out of her own journey of redemption. She has a passion for challenging women to see who they are in God’s eyes and to find freedom from any behavior, habit, or addiction that keeps them from embracing the truth of their Belovedness. Natalie loves spending time with her family, is a country girl at heart, will drink good coffee at all hours of the day, and tries to get out and enjoy the great outdoors as often as possible with her husband of 20 years and 4 children.
