Faith Deconstruction / Religious Trauma Support
If you’re reading this, chances are you’re questioning beliefs that once brought you comfort.
I know what that’s like.
I support clients in deconstructing and reconstructing faith in two ways:
Therapy (California Residents Only)
For trauma processing for spiritual abuse and mental health support related to faith transitions.
Coaching (Across the U.S./Globally)
For trauma processing for spiritual abuse and mental health support related to faith transitions.
Faith Deconstruction Therapy

Faith can be a source of security in a world of uncertainty. But if you’ve experienced spiritual abuse or religious trauma – or if you begin to question your beliefs – the confusion, grief, and emotional distress can be too much to navigate without help. If you’re facing the loss of your faith as you knew it, therapy can help you get clear on what you believe as you heal.
How Therapy Can Help
Processing Religious Trauma & Spiritual Abuse: Faith-based harm can leave lasting emotional wounds. Using EMDR, we’ll work through painful memories, religious conditioning, and oppressive shame. [Learn more about EMDR here.]
Navigating Grief, Guilt, and Identity Shifts: Letting go of certain beliefs can bring both relief and loss. Therapy helps you process these emotions and honestly explore beliefs that you can own.
Managing Family & Community Relationships: Faith transitions can significantly impact your relationships. Therapy supports you in setting boundaries, communicating your needs, and handling difficult conversations.
Rebuilding Self-Trust & Inner Guidance: Many people leaving rigid religious structures struggle with self-doubt. Our work will help you reconnect with your intuition and get clear on what values you want to live by.
If your faith transition is bringing up significant distress or unresolved trauma, therapy can help you process and heal in a way that supports your mental and emotional well-being.

(Across the U.S./Globally)
Not everyone navigating faith deconstruction needs therapy. If you’re looking for guidance in exploring your beliefs, making sense of your spirituality, or navigating this transition without deep trauma work, coaching may be a better fit.
How Faith Deconstruction Coaching Can Support You
Exploring Faith & Spiritual Identity: Whether you’re stepping away from religion or redefining your beliefs, coaching offers space for self-discovery.
Processing Religious Conditioning & Guilt: Unlearning rigid beliefs takes time. Coaching helps you challenge limiting narratives and align with your values.
Navigating Relationships & Boundaries: Faith shifts can impact relationships. Coaching supports you in setting boundaries and communicating with confidence.
Building a Meaningful Life: Questioning or leaving structured faith can create uncertainty. Coaching helps you find purpose and build a fulfilling, values-driven life.
Unlike therapy, coaching does not offer EMDR trauma treatment. Instead, it provides a structured space for self-reflection, decision-making, and personal growth as you move forward in your faith journey.
