Religious Trauma Therapy in Denver

An evidence-based + attachment-focused approach to religious trauma therapy

Are you ready to shed the stories from your past religious experiences?

It’s our philosophy that humans are spiritual creatures— always seeking deep connection, beauty, and truth. Unfortunately, modern religion has left many feeling shameful, scared, and angry. Maybe you grew up in a religious context that you no longer align with and are struggling to untangle what you once learned.

You may have lost some of your closest relationships as your relationship to spirituality has shifted. You might be struggling to trust and enjoy your body. You may even call what you’ve experienced religious trauma or spiritual abuse.

No matter your story, your adverse religious experiences are valid, and we’d be honored to walk with you as you rebuild what feels true and good to you.

You notice the impact of your shifting faith throughout your life…

  • You struggle to trust yourself and listen to your intuition

  • You’re filled with shame— maybe about the choices you’ve made, your body, or your longings

  • You feel lost without the structure you once had

You’re ready for a change.

It may feel impossible now, but you can heal from your past. You can reclaim a truth that feels liberating. You can feel connected to something bigger. And we can help you get there.

We’ll help you:

  • We’ll teach you the neurobiology behind your flight, fight, and freeze responses and explore the way your religious experiences have impacted the way you exist in the world. You learn to track your own nervous system states, create resources for healing, and move into a place of safe connection.

  • We’ll work through your story to identify the places that you were pulled away from yourself by religion, and identify the ways you took on beliefs that aren’t true. Together, we will offer compassion, nurturance, and protection to the parts of you who always deserved to be deeply loved.

  • As we explore and untangle your past religious experiences, we will also start to build a picture of what you really want for your life. Whether you want to live by a sense of spirituality or not, we will help you create a life full of purpose and connection, and free of shame and obligation.

We also host a religious trauma support group!

You're not meant to heal from this alone.

For many, leaving a high-control religious environment can be isolating and disorienting. Our 6-week in-person support group is a place to process, connect, and rebuild alongside others who understand.

We combine gentle, trauma-informed practices—including Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic approaches, and narrative therapy—to help you reconnect with your body, voice, and sense of self. Each week includes a mix of psychoeducation, guided practices, and group conversation.

Group Details:
Location: In person at Kin Counseling Services (Denver, CO)
Schedule: Wednesdays, 4:00–5:30 PM
Dates: June 11 – July 16, 2025
Cost: $30 per session, Medicaid accepted
