It’s more than just “church hurt”. The pain of betrayal from spiritual leaders or communities can cut deeper than you ever imagined, leaving you questioning your faith, your identity, and even your worth. Perhaps you’ve tried to move on, but the weight of what happened keeps pulling you back, and the thought of trusting another spiritual leader—or even God—feels impossible. Trying to make sense of it all is just so mentally exhausting. And the worst part? You can't seem to shake the sense that it's somehow your fault. I specialize in helping people heal from the deep wounds of spiritual abuse. I will help you process the difficult emotions, the trauma and the pain of what you've been through and help you find hope again. We'll untangle unhealthy teachings from the truth of who God is and guide you toward a faith that is secure and healthy—not forced or full of fear. Starting therapy can feel like finding a safe haven where you can be vulnerable, honest, and truly seen. A place where you build stronger relationships with yourself, others and The Lord. Jesus is ultimately the one who does the healing. No matter how broken you feel, He can take every piece and make you whole again, even better than before. Let's do this!
