# Part 4 of 4: What Woodworking and Furniture Refinishing Can Teach Us About Therapy

The project has finally come to completion.

I found a lock that worked exactly the way I wanted it to, every drawer functions as it should, and everything is now stored safely and securely. After hours, days, and even weeks of work, this once-worn file cabinet has been transformed into something both beautiful and purposeful.

As I step back and look at the finished project, I feel a deep sense of accomplishment. Not because it was easy, but because it wasn't.

This project reminded me of one of the greatest truths about therapy: healing is not about becoming someone new. It's about uncovering the beauty, strength, and resilience that have been there all along.

Like this file cabinet, we all experience scratches, dents, disappointments, and seasons that leave us feeling worn down. There are times when we have to strip away old layers, patiently work through imperfections, pause when life interrupts us, and even ask for help along the way. None of those moments mean we are broken. They are simply part of the restoration process.

When healing is complete—or perhaps more accurately, when we reach a new stage of healing—we don't leave without scars. Instead, we leave stronger, wiser, and more equipped for what lies ahead. Our experiences become part of our story, but they no longer define our worth.

The finished file cabinet isn't perfect. If you look closely, you'll still find small imperfections. But to me, those imperfections tell the story of the journey. They remind me of the patience, perseverance, problem-solving, and care that went into restoring it.

People are much the same. Perfection has never been the goal. Growth is. Healing is. Learning to embrace who you are while continuing to become who you were created to be is what truly matters.

Thank you for joining me through this four-part journey. My hope is that this project has reminded you that healing takes time, patience, courage, and sometimes the willingness to trust the process—even when progress feels slow.

Just as this old file cabinet found new purpose, so can you.

**At Wounds to Wings LLC, I believe healing isn't about erasing your past—it's about transforming it into strength. Because where there are wounds, there is also the possibility of growth, hope, and wings.**

Look forward to hearing from you soon!

Hi, I'm Faith McCrory, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and the owner of Wounds to Wings. I provide compassionate, evidence-based virtual therapy for Wyoming residents ages 12 and up who are a good fit for telehealth.

With nearly 25 years of experience working with individuals with disabilities and complex life challenges, along with nearly 20 years in community mental health, I have had the privilege of supporting people through difficult seasons of life. I became a practicing therapist in 2024 and bring a deep understanding of resilience, healing, and the importance of feeling seen and heard.

I specialize in helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional healing. Many people with trauma backgrounds share, "I don't want to tell my story again." The good news is—you don't have to. Therapy can focus on how your experiences impact your life today while building the tools, confidence, and resilience needed to move forward.

My approach integrates CBT, DBT, solution-focused, trauma-informed, and strengths-based practices to create a safe, supportive space where you feel valued and empowered.

Wounds to Wings accepts Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare/Optum, Oxford (Optum), Oscar (Optum), Providence Health Plan, Carelon Behavioral Health, Quest Behavioral Health, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming, Tricare, Medicare, and Medicaid. Sliding scale and self-pay options are also available.

Please call or text me at 307-630-3998 or visit [www.woundstowings.org](http://www.woundstowings.org) to begin your healing journey.

Healing begins with connection, hope, and the courage to take the first step.

# Part 3 of 4: What Woodworking and Furniture Refinishing Can Teach Us About Therapy

The refinishing process takes time, patience, and flexibility. There are very few shortcuts if you want the final product to be something you're proud of.

I applied the first coat of stain and waited the recommended 2–4 hours for it to dry. Then the rain came. I had to wait another day before I could apply the second coat. Once again, after patiently waiting for it to dry, the rain returned. Another day passed before I was finally able to apply the third coat.

As the layers built, I began to see the transformation. The wood tones evened out, the grain became richer, the wood looked healthier, and everything started coming together. It reminded me that beautiful things often take time.

Next came the polyurethane. Again, I had to wait 2–4 hours before lightly sanding the surface to remove minor imperfections, like brush strokes. Then, just as before...the rain came. Everything had to be moved inside once again.

The next day, I carefully sanded the finish by hand using 320-grit sandpaper. This wasn't about removing what I'd worked so hard to build—it was about polishing and refining it. After another waiting period, I completed the final hand sanding and polished the finish with a simple paper bag, bringing out an even smoother shine.

Then came the finishing touches. I painted all the hardware because, personally, brass just wasn't my style. When I went to install the lock, it didn't fit. Instead of giving up, I had to problem-solve and find another solution.

Therapy often unfolds in much the same way.

Healing rarely follows the timeline we expect. Sometimes life interrupts our progress. Sometimes we have to pause because circumstances are beyond our control. Other times we discover that we're no longer tearing ourselves down—we're simply refining the healthy changes we've already made.

Healing isn't always about removing more. Sometimes it's about polishing the strengths you've already developed, making small adjustments, and trusting that the process is still moving you forward.

And perhaps one of the most important lessons this project reminded me of is that it's okay to ask for help. When I encountered a problem I couldn't solve on my own, I had people who encouraged me, offered their support, and helped me find a solution. Therapy is no different. We were never meant to navigate every obstacle alone. Having someone walk beside you doesn't make you weak—it gives you the support needed to keep moving forward.

Healing isn't about perfection. It's about perseverance. It takes patience, flexibility, and sometimes the willingness to pause, adapt, and lean on others. In the end, those moments don't diminish the journey—they become part of what makes the finished piece so meaningful.

Thank you for following this journey with me. Be sure to come back for **Part 4**, where I'll reveal the finished file cabinet and share the final lesson woodworking has taught me about healing, resilience, and transformation.
