"The BIGGEST lies we believe as Christians is that struggling mentally makes us weak. It doesn't, it makes us human"

Kristin Ontiveros
PODCAST HOST
Faith, Healing, and radical honesty
Hi, I'm Kristin Ontiveros, mom of four, Children's Ministry Director, Youth Leader, and someone who has navigated the tension between deep faith and real mental health struggles.
Hope for the Mind exists because the church doesn't always talk about what happens when prayer feels hard and anxiety still shows up. I wanted to create a space where you don't have to pretend you're okay. A place where God meets you exactly where you are.
