Religious Deconstruction Thearpy

Reconnect with your intuition, your body, and your unique spiritual practice.

Many people come to therapy feeling spiritually unmoored — especially after leaving a highly structured or organized religion. This experience is common in Salt Lake City, where faith transitions can leave people longing for connection but uncertain where to begin. As a trauma-informed therapist, I offer a safe, supportive space to explore spirituality after religion and help you reconnect with what feels meaningful and authentic for you.

We start by rebuilding trust in your own intuition

Religious deconstruction therapy is ultimately about reclaiming your sense of self. It’s about moving out of fear and into clarity, out of obligation and into choice, and out of external authority and into a deeper trust in yourself.

In therapy, we create a space where you can explore this process without pressure, judgment, or expectation. You don’t need to have it all figured out. Together, we work to gently unpack what you’ve been taught, identify what still feels true to you, and release what no longer serves you.

This work often includes:

  • Processing the emotional and psychological impact of your religious experience

  • Understanding how trauma and conditioning may still be influencing you

  • Rebuilding a sense of internal safety and self-trust

  • Exploring your values, identity, and personal agency

  • Navigating changes in family, community, and relationships

As this process deepens, many people begin to reconnect with their own internal voice—the part of them that knows what feels grounded, safe, and authentic. From this place, it becomes possible to create something new.

Religious deconstruction is not just about what you are moving away from—it’s about understanding what you’re moving toward.

We may also explore different indigenous and ancestral traditions with deep respect for their roots and cultural contexts. Holistic therapy can include sound healing, energy work, tobacco ceremony, or vocal activation. These practices provide somatic and energetic pathways to healing that can stand alone or weave into your spiritual journey — supporting you in coming home to yourself in body, mind, and spirit. This is a space where your spirituality can be evolving, imperfect, and uniquely your own — a place to explore meaning and healing on your terms.
