Lyniesha Harper
Hi, everyone my name is Lyniesha! I'm a bisexual Black Caribbean American woman that loves the arts. Over the years I've struggled with depression, (social) anxiety, loneliness, family relationships, burnout, disordered eating, and more. It took a lot of practice and drive to eventually feeling alive again. I would love to help, and support others going through that road to recovery. I can't wait to get to know you, and be your support system! Interests: Art of all different mediums, funko pop collector, comic book collector, gaming, and psychology
Providing Support For
CredentialsVerified
Who I Help BestVerified
I help people who feel unheard, misunderstood, overwhelmed, or alone by offering genuine, judgment free support. I’m open minded, empathetic, and committed to meeting people where they are. I’m especially passionate about supporting marginalized communities and those who struggle to find understanding or emotional support. I strive to create a safe space where people feel heard, understood, and empowered to navigate challenges and make positive changes in their lives.
What I've Been Through MyselfVerified
I’ve experienced financial hardship, loneliness, difficulty accessing support, anxiety, depression, body image struggles, life changes, and burnout. These experiences have taught me how isolating it can feel to navigate challenges without adequate support. My own journey has helped me develop greater empathy, patience, and understanding for others facing difficult circumstances.
What I Hope to Share
I hope to contribute hope for new beginnings, especially for people who feel like there's no light at the end of the tunnel. I know I will gain new perspectives, and knowledge; not only from faciliating, but also from people that came from many different walks of life. I'm just so excited!
What Brought Me to ShareWell
I was born and raised in Bronx, NY before moving to Florida at age 14. The move was very hard on me, in which I started to do a lot of soul-searching and googling. I realized there were so many thing I endured but never acknowledged growing up. The feelings of; hopelessness, loneliness, and shortly after that, depression started to consume me, and led me down a dark path. I had only myself to lean on, and I kept pushing forward, little by little everyday. During COVID the world basically stopped, and I felt like I could finally take care of myself since I had the time to pour back into me. So, what brought me to ShareWell is the community of others going through recovery from their experiences, and to bring hope that there is a better future for all of us! Also, my social anxiety always got the best of me, but not anymore! I won't let it win, so I'm conquering my anxieties in the process. We are stronger then we think we are, always remember that!
