NPEN has truly helped me in my journey as an NPE. When I discovered this group and its founder, Alesia, it changed so much for me. I had already been on my journey for a few years, but I’m learning so much from NPEN and consistently being reminded that I am not alone. That in itself is huge for an NPE.

Knowing there are RN volunteers that assist at NPEN will make a true difference for new NPEs, who come along every day. NPEN has also helped me realize that my dream of being a trauma coach can come true. In just a short time, they have helped me to help others who are journeying alongside me.

I cannot say enough positive things about the NPEN group. Amid the difficulty finding out we are NPEs, the NPEN RN volunteers are a true blessing as we all navigate this rollercoaster ride of life.

Alesia has been so wonderful to me ever since I found NPEN! For what seems like forever, I have felt so alone and different from those closest to me – but in less than 24 hours after finding and joining NPEN, I had a personal message from her filled with nothing but acceptance, love and assistance.

She referred me to an amazing counselor/therapist and took the time to be there for me every step of the way with her messages of reassurance and encouragement. I highly recommend the services that Alesia and NPEN provide. She definitely came through for me at a time when I was beginning to feel hopeless. Thank you! I am forever grateful!

My DNA discovery was traumatic and life-changing. The family that raised me was not forthcoming and lied to me for an additional four years after my discovery. All of the emotions tied to a discovery like this are overwhelming. It was an incredibly lonely time for me, and I never want anyone else to ever feel that they’re alone. I’m so grateful to have come across NPEN and I’m ready to help our NPE community.
