What Is Religious Trauma?

Do you feel anxiety, shame, or fear tied to your past faith experiences?

Maybe your sense of identity was shaped around rigid belief systems, or perhaps you were told that your feelings, questions, or boundaries were “wrong.” Religious trauma can be deeply isolating and hard to name, especially when it’s tied to something that was once meant to be sacred.


  • Questioning your worth or value outside your former beliefs

  • Struggling with fear, guilt, or anxiety after leaving a faith community

  • Feeling disconnected from your body, intuition, or personal truth

Adverse religious experiences can affect your sense of identity, sexuality, and belonging. But healing is possible.

What to Expect in Therapy

Get the support you deserve.

In our sessions, we’ll create space to safely unpack your experiences—without pressure, judgment, or an agenda. I support those experiencing religious trauma syndrome, recovering from church trauma, or deconstructing from systems that once felt all-consuming.

Find clarity and reclaim your voice.

Together, we’ll explore your story, use inner child and parts work to process stuck patterns, and develop tools to move forward. I also offer somatic body-based practices to release religious trauma as an integrative option.

Feel grounded, whole, and empowered.

As you reconnect with your own wisdom, you’ll begin to trust your choices, clarify your values, and reclaim the sense of freedom that was always yours.

You’re Not Alone

You don’t have to keep carrying the shame, anxiety, or confusion left by your religious upbringing. I can help you reconnect with who you truly are—outside of what you were told to be.

  • Sessions are a collaborative space where you’re free to explore your experiences without being judged, corrected, or “re-converted.” We may use talk therapy, somatic tools, or parts work depending on your needs. This space is yours to reconnect with your intuition, truth, and sense of agency.

  • It varies. Some people seek short-term support to clarify their beliefs and process specific events. Others may engage in deeper work over time to rebuild self-trust and identity after spiritual trauma or religious trauma syndrome.

  • If you still feel guilt, shame, fear, or confusion from past spiritual experiences—or if phrases like “exvangelical,” “faith deconstruction,” or "church trauma" resonate with you—this work may help you heal.
