Empowering Young Survivors at Miguel León Orphanage
In the heart of Cuenca, Ecuador, the young girls at Miguel León Orphanage have endured profound trauma. Taken from their families due to sexual abuse, these resilient young women, ages 13 to 18, are now on a journey of healing and restoration. Though they have families, their safety and well-being require a nurturing and supportive environment, one that fosters healing through creativity, self-expression, and community.
A Holistic Approach to Healing
We believe that true healing comes from addressing both the emotional and psychological wounds left by trauma. That is why we are introducing a transformative therapy program designed specifically for these young women. This program integrates multiple forms of therapeutic expression, including:
Art Therapy – Helping them process emotions through painting, drawing, and creative expression.
Dance & Movement Therapy – Encouraging physical expression as a means of reclaiming confidence and joy.
Music Therapy – Utilizing rhythm and melody to foster emotional release and healing.
Counseling & Mental Health Support – Providing professional guidance to help navigate past trauma and build resilience.
Crafts & Creative Workshops – Offering hands-on activities that cultivate focus, skill-building, and self-worth.
Creating a Safe Space for Growth
By incorporating these elements into a structured program, we aim to provide these young women with the tools they need to heal, regain confidence, and envision a brighter future. Our approach is centered on empowerment, giving them the support and skills necessary to overcome adversity and thrive despite their past experiences.
