I am currently opening new sessions weekday daytime. Enquire for more details. 

Online Specialist support for Faith Deconstruction, Spiritual Abuse and Religious Trauma.

When the belief system you were raised in no longer fits, it can feel like the ground is disappearing.

I provide a warm, online space to help you untangle your story, heal from religious shame, and finally feel like yourself again.

Whether you are navigating a faith transition, setting boundaries with religious family or friends, or trying to parent your own children without the fear-based rules you grew up with, I’m here to help.

I have a particular interest in supporting parents who want to break old cycles, and I offer a fully LGBTQIA+ affirming space.

My approach is conversational and grounded, helping you find some solid ground in what might feel like a stormy journey. 

I work exclusively online across the UK, offering flexible sessions that fit into your daily life.

Please feel free to book a free 20-minute intro call to see if we’re the right fit.

A grounded space to untangle your story

When the ground moves beneath your feet, whether through a shift in faith, a change in family dynamics, or the transition into parenthood, it can be hard to know who you are anymore.

I provide a warm, conversational space where you don’t have to 'perform' or have all the answers. My approach is about helping you move away from the 'perfect-person' expectations of the past and building a life that finally feels like your own. 

Areas I can help you with:

Faith Transitions & Religious Trauma: Navigating 'Sunday scaries,' church hurt, or the loss of a community that once defined you.

Family & Boundaries: Setting healthy limits with religious parents or navigating the pain of estrangement and shunning.

Intentional Parenting: Supporting parents who want to move away from the shame-based or authoritarian styles they may have grown up with.

Identity & Pride: Offering a fully LGBTQIA+ affirming space to explore your true self outside of religious doctrine.

Working together online

I work exclusively online across the UK. This allows you to join our sessions from the privacy and comfort of your own home, fitting therapy into your day without the stress of a commute. My style is relational and down-to-earth. I’m definitely not a blank-wall therapist! You'll get to experience empathy, insight, and practical guidance when you need it.

The First Step

I know how daunting it can be to start this process, especially if you’ve been taught to doubt your own intuition. I offer a free 20-minute introductory video call so we can chat, see if we click, and you can ask any questions you have. 

There is no pressure to commit, the intro call just gives us a chance to connect.

I offer a free 20 minute consultation so you are able to decide if we connect and work well together. In this session I'll ask you what brings you to therapy, what your hopes are for working together and outline a bit of how I work to see if that's right for you. 

After this consultation, if you'd like to go ahead, we will arrange for a time and date to start sessions together. We can arrange this in the consultation or via email if you need more time to consider.
