Welcome to Door of Hope for Teens

If you struggle with self-injury, also known as cutting…you are not alone.

Our team of crisis care advocates is here to meet your emotional needs and guide you towards freedom through a process of restoration, renewal and HOPE.

Who am I Really?

Overwhelming emotions, shame, low self-esteem, physical or sexual abuse, and suppressed anger are just a few of the reasons for self-injurious behavior.

Those who self-injure often feel they are living behind a mask, and that no one knows who they really are. Numbness or a sense of being detached from your surroundings is often experienced.

There is no magic wand or quick fix in stopping self-injury. Sometimes you many even think of cutting as your “best friend.” You begin to turn to self-injury more and more, you may feel trapped, confused, empty and hopeless but, NEVER GIVE UP HOPE…there is a way out.

Hope is just a call or text message away

Reaching out for advice is the first step towards recovery.Our team of crisis care advocates will listen to your story, offer encouragement and help you discover new ways to cope. 

Known as the new anorexia of this generation, self-injury can be compared to a drug addiction, where the person becomes addicted to the reward aspect of the feeling achieved. Often times cutting has become a “best friend” to those who are afflicted. Self-injury is a destructive coping mechanism and is NOT done for attention.  These young people suffer from depression and low self-esteem, and they have turned to self-injury as a way of escape.
