Faith-Based Counseling

Faith-Based and Spiritually-Integrated Counseling

Healing from Spiritual Trauma While Reconnecting to What You Believe

Have you ever felt hurt, silenced, or shamed by the very faith community that once gave you strength? Maybe you still hold deep spiritual beliefs but find it painful to enter a church, read scripture, or pray the way you used to. You might miss the peace you once felt but fear being judged, misunderstood, or dismissed — even in therapy.

You’re not alone. Research shows that 83% of Americans believe their mental health is closely tied to their spiritual life, and three-quarters want a therapist who respects and integrates their faith into counseling. Yet, for many people, spiritual trauma, religious abuse, or toxic church environments can leave long-lasting emotional wounds that make trust and healing difficult.

I provide faith-sensitive and spiritually-integrated counseling for individuals who want therapy that honors their beliefs — or helps them make peace with their faith after harm. Whether you’re deconstructing your faith, finding your way back to God, or seeking healing after spiritual abuse, I offer a safe, judgment-free space to explore what spirituality means to you now.

What I Help With

In my online counseling practice, I work with individuals who are:

  • Recovering from spiritual or religious trauma (including experiences of manipulation, fear-based teachings, or rejection)

  • Struggling with guilt, shame, or anxiety tied to faith or religious expectations

  • Navigating faith transitions or deconstruction after leaving mainstream religion

  • Seeking a Christian or spiritually open therapist who integrates faith and evidence-based care

  • Wanting to reconnect with spirituality in a healthy, authentic way

Faith-based therapy isn’t about pushing beliefs — it’s about creating space for honest conversation and healing. You set the tone for how faith is woven into your sessions.

My Approach

I combine evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic and Attachment-Focused therapies with a compassionate understanding of spiritual and emotional wounds. My goal is to help you:

  • Heal from the emotional effects of religious trauma

  • Rebuild trust and safety — within yourself and your spiritual identity

  • Process painful memories and beliefs through a trauma-informed lens

  • Explore your relationship with God or faith without fear of judgment

  • Discover peace, purpose, and self-acceptance beyond fear and shame

Whether you’re seeking Christian counseling, faith-respectful therapy, or a space to redefine what faith means to you, I walk with you at your pace — no pressure, no preaching, just compassionate understanding.

You Can Heal Without Losing Your Faith — or Yourself

Healing from spiritual trauma doesn’t mean abandoning what you believe. It means finding freedom from the pain that’s kept you from fully living. Therapy can help you reconnect with faith, peace, and authenticity — on your own terms.
