Therapy for emotionally complex seasons of adulthood

Faith Transitions & Religious Deconstruction

Leaving, questioning, or redefining faith can impact identity, relationships, self-worth, sexuality, and emotional safety.

I provide therapy for adults navigating:

  • Evangelical deconstruction

  • Religious shame

  • Purity culture

  • Evolving spirituality

  • Identity confusion after faith transitions

  • remaining connected to Christianity while reevaluating harmful messaging

My goal is not to push clients toward or away from faith, but to create space for honesty, healing, and self-trust.

Intimacy & Emotional Connections

Many adults struggle to feel emotionally safe, connected, desired, or fully understood in relationships.

You may find yourself:

  • Avoiding vulnerability

  • Disconnected from desire

  • Struggling to express your needs clearly

  • Feeling shame around intimacy

  • Repeating painful relationship patterns

These patterns can feel confusing—especially when you’re self-aware and actively trying to grow.

Therapy can help you better understand the emotional patterns beneath disconnection and build more authentic, secure relationships.

Inner Critic, Anxiety & Emotional Overwhelm

Many clients come to therapy feeling exhausted from constantly managing anxiety, emotional intensity, hypervigilance, or self-criticism.

I support adults experiencing:

  • Chronic anxiety, overthinking, & overwhelm

  • Emotional numbness or shutdown

  • Experience emotions as intense, overwhelming, or confusing

  • Burnout

  • Grief and loss

  • Difficulty feeling safe in relationships or in your own body

In therapy, we work to better understand these internal experiences and create a different relationship with them.

My work integrates trauma-informed approaches including EMDR, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and parts-work informed interventions.

Complex Family Dynamics

Many of these patterns have roots in early relationships and continue to show up with parents or family.

I work with adults navigating:

  • Feel responsible for a parent’s emotions or wellbeing / emotionally immature parents

  • Experience guilt when setting boundaries

  • Feel pulled between closeness and distance

  • Be navigating low contact or estrangement

  • Caregiving stress / Role reversals & aging parents

  • Family conflict that feels impossible to resolve

These relationships often carry history, obligation, and mixed emotions, which can make them especially complex.

Together, we explore what feels right for you and how to navigate these relationships in a way that is more sustainable.
