Why we exist

Children are being targeted online every day, and too many mothers find out only after the harm is done. When it happens, no parent should be left alone, searching for answers in the middle of the night. Parents are not failing their children. The system is failing parents.

And it is not only children. Women are threatened, harassed through texts and emails, and shamed online in ways that rattle the nervous system and break trust. Healing from that kind of harm takes real human connection: in person care from qualified therapists, not AI, not chatbots.

Ana Vasquez, M.Ed., is the mother and educator behind this work. As President and Founder, she brings a background in education and years of walking alongside children and the mothers who love them. She saw how fast the digital world can turn dangerous, and how much stronger families become when someone stands beside them. The arts are personal for her, too: she played violin from age three through high school, including two and a half years with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, sang in choir throughout middle and high school, acted on stage, including the role of Coco in Fame, and danced. In her words, no amount of drama or trauma done to a family should prohibit a child from being able to excel and heal.

Families need trusted resources when harm occurs and real pathways to heal afterward: donor funded art, music, and animal therapy with qualified therapists.

That is what Guided Healers Inc is: one complete path, free to qualifying families, funded by donors.

We are building a network of therapy partners across Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and Martin counties: art therapy studios, music therapy practices, and animal therapy providers close to the families we serve. When trauma happens, families walk into a real room, with a real person, and begin to heal.

Our vision

A world where no woman or child faces online harm alone, and where the harm done to a family never decides what that family becomes. Every child can still heal and excel, every mother can move forward with real support beside her, and what defines a family is what they build after.

Our mission

Guided Healers Inc connects women and children affected by online harm with real healing, close to home. We match families with trusted, independent providers in three pathways, art therapy, music therapy, and animal therapy, delivered in person by real people. Donor funded vouchers pay those providers directly, so families never pay, never hold money, and never have to heal alone.

This vision is funded by donors.

Every voucher and every session we fund starts with a gift to the Children's Therapy Voucher Fund.

What we believe

Every family is welcome

No judgment. No shame. No hoops. If your family is hurting, you belong here, and we will stand with you.

Simple beats perfect

Clear steps a tired parent can take tonight protect children better than perfect advice nobody can follow.

Confidence is protection

A child who knows they can speak up without fear is a child predators struggle to reach.

Forward, not backward

Living in the past doesn't move you forward. We help families fix the way they think and regulate their nervous systems. That is how real healing happens.

Educate the mind, heal the body

Knowledge changes thinking. Creative expression regulates the body. We do both: clear, trusted guidance for the mind, and funded therapy across three pathways for the body.

Who this is for

Guided Healers Inc is built for every family raising a child in the digital age across Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and Martin counties, no matter how that family is shaped.

Women

Moms, guardians, grandparents, and anyone caring for a child who wants clear, straight answers and real support.

Children and teens

Young learners who want to understand online safety, set boundaries, and know what to do when something feels off.

Homeschool and school connected families

Families learning at home and schools looking for practical, ready to use digital safety resources.

Families across Southeast Florida

Our people

Board of Directors

Educators, social workers, and community builders who have spent their lives caring for children and families, now focused on keeping them safe online.

Ana Vasquez, M.Ed.

Founder & President

Educator & Family Advocate

Founder of Guided Healers Inc. At 15, Ana was kidnapped, lured to a party and drugged, in a world without social media, warning systems, or anyone to turn to. She does not share this to relive it. Her belief: living in the past does not move you forward. You fix the way you think, regulate your nervous system, and move forward. As President she owns the vision, public education, the resource network families use, all social media presence, and approval of therapy vouchers under the board rule.

Rosemary Smyczek, BSW, MSW

Treasurer

40+ Years School Social Work

Four decades as a social worker in Milwaukee Public Schools, working with vulnerable children and trauma informed populations. Bilingual in English and Spanish. As Treasurer she owns financial oversight, the books, and paying approved invoices directly to therapists. She is building our roster of approved therapists across our three pathways through background research plus a phone call using the board script, and she identifies local donor prospects.

Johaan Stinson

Community & Sponsor Relations

As Secretary he owns corporate records and minutes. As Director of Community Partnerships he brings in person presence at events, networking and socializing for Guided Healers Inc, finding the right community clientele across Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and Martin counties through introductions and outreach, and his business framework and high end relationships.

Ed Jones

Director of Philanthropic Development

Sponsorship & Fundraising

Owns donor relationships: individual donor relationships for the founding campaign, foundation and family foundation asks, corporate sponsors and CSR asks, and gift acknowledgment.
