* Reorient to the truth of your body
* Reorient to the truth of your body
You long to be in a relationship but you’re afraid to take the leap.
This wasn’t the life you imagined when you were 12, or even 30. God keeps disappointing you, and you wonder if you still believe in a good God. Maybe you’re…
Creating a full life with friends, community, work, and family, and you feel an ache for your own partner.
Starting to deconstruct your long-held religious beliefs, realizing that what felt like safety was actually trauma.
Excelling at work, but you feel a pang when you come home to an empty house.
Dating someone and you’re questioning your beliefs about physical relationships.
You followed all the rules about dating and you have nothing to show for it.
Your biological clock is ticking, and you wonder if you can still have your own family.
It’s bleeding into your daily life. Maybe it looks like…
You’re angry at God for forgetting about you.
You don’t feel like you “belong” anymore to the church that nurtured you for years.
It’s the holidays (again), and while you want to be merry and celebrate, you feel like you don’t belong when you hang out with your happily married friends with kids.
You’re growing in your career but you’re having trouble deciding which professional direction to go to because you don’t know if you need to relocate to find a partner.
You’re contemplating buying a home for the stability and you’re grieving that you don’t have someone to share it with.
You disagree politically with others in your faith community and don’t feel accepted.
Therapy with me can help you de-construct and re-construct what you truly believe about dating and faith.
You may notice…
Feeling stronger in your core self and confident about your decisions
More peace about where you find yourself
You can speak up with more ease about your boundaries and desires
You spend less time second guessing yourself and actually LIVING your life
You trust and know that your life now matters, whatever it looks like
Knowing and embodying your worth in decisions big and small
Together, we will....
Slow down your heartbeat and deepen your breath. Settle into your body’s wisdom and trust her guidance.
Bring compassion to your younger self and restore your sense of wholeness to discern what you want.
Explore what “naming your truth” looks like–rediscover the truth of who you are, and what living a full life means now.
Dig into what faith looks like for you. Re-evaluate what and how you were taught, and its impact on you now.
Use EMDR to reprocess painful moments
Help you chart a path that is wholly yours–informed by your faith, but not controlled. You take agency and find your voice.
Therapy for purity culture can help you…
Show up for your life now, not the elusive life that you’re waiting for.
Know that your body is good and worth inhabiting, even with its unfulfilled desires.
Name the deeper hope that lies inside of you, and take steps towards it.
Dive into what you actually believe, and move into a congruent dance.
