Talk 1-on-1 with a Peer Specialist About Grief

I was called to help others because I realize firsthand, the importance of a Supportive Community and Network through the healing and recovery process is essential to complete wellness.

I use my years of lived experience to support my peers.

I’m a 39 year old who works in a 3.5 setting I also have worked in the medical field for 19 years My story is rooted in helping others. After working in healthcare for many years and witnessing how addiction, mental health challenges, and incarceration can affect families, I chose to turn those experiences into purpose. I became a certified peer support professional so I could help others feel heard, supported, and reminded that they are not alone.

Survivor: addiction, mental health, domestic violence, grief

Certified Peer Recovery Specialist, I’m dedicated to being a direct cause of positive change through finding balance and meeting people where they are!

My name is Tondra “Poetic Sense” Mosley, and my life taught me about healing before I ever had the words for it. I’ve walked through health scares, emotional rebuilding, seasons of deep uncertainty, and the kind of quiet battles that change how you see yourself. Faith carried me, but so did honest community — spaces where I didn’t have to be strong, polished, or put together to be accepted. That’s where my calling was shaped. Today I serve as a healing curator, bestselling author, and trauma-informed peer support advocate. I create spaces where people can exhale. Spaces where we talk about what’s heavy without shame and what’s hopeful without pretending the work is easy. My work centers Black women’s mental health while welcoming anyone who is seeking restoration, reflection, and growth. My foundation is faith-based, but my approach is compassionate, never forced. I believe healing is sacred, and sacred things should be handled with care. I meet people where they are and honor their pace, their story, and their dignity. Through affirmation, conversation, and shared humanity, I help people reconnect with their voice, their resilience, and their purpose. You don’t have to arrive whole to sit in this space. You just have to arrive.

Lived-experience peer support for trauma, grief, and healing

CPSS, Art Therapy Facilitator, Creative, Trauma Survivor, Narcissistic Abuse Survivor, Bipolar, STE, Spiritual Emergence. After a sharp hit to the skull, I had my first psychosis at the age of 33. Rather than getting imaging done, the ER assumed it was psychological and sent a psychiatrist to diagnose me with bipolar disorder. No physical check was done, no evaluation of my past family trauma. I believe I had a Spiritually Transformative Experience or Spiritual Emergence. I've had a few since then and have realized that I want to be a part of fixing a broken health care system. I've survived emotionally immature parents (a complacent mother and narcissistically abusive father), abusive siblings, and I'm still working on myself to this day. Writing has helped me with perspective, I hope to publish my memoir soon. I am also an artist who is certified as an art therapy facilitator to compliment my CPSS (certified peer support specialist) that I received in the state of Arizona.
