Healing is possible and deconstruction doesn’t have to be done alone.

 

Maybe You…

  • fear others in your community will judge you

  • want a place to process your questions and doubts

  • have had a painful or traumatic experience in a church context and don’t know who you can talk to

  • feel like you’ll lose your community if you are honest about who you are

Faith is an important part of our identity, and doubts or painful experiences can cause us to feel disoriented and alone. Many who were raised in high control religion have had to suppress their questions, aspects of their identity, and their own sense of reality in order to maintain belonging in a family or community. We may feel unsure what we can hold onto.

I can support you as you sort through your complicated feelings about your faith, family, or spiritual community. Together we can gently unpack the harm this has caused so you can reconnect to your sense of safety and experience freedom, aliveness, and joy.
