Learn to navigate the messy intersection of religious trauma, anxiety, your family’s expectations, and your cultural identity.
If you've left a high-control religious environment but still find yourself navigating the guilt, anxiety, grief, and old rules it left behind, you're in the right place. You'll find resources to help you make sense of what happened, understand how it continues to affect you, and figure out what you actually want moving forward.

Hi! I’m Halle, a Religious Trauma an Anxiety Therapist serving Colorado and Oregon.
I'm a licensed therapist who helps adults process the aftermath of religious trauma, spiritual abuse, and high-control environments. My approach combines Brainspotting, Parts Work, and a healthy respect for your autonomy.
I also write about anxiety, overthinking, family expectations, and what it looks like to build a life that actually feels like your own.
You don't need another person handing you a rulebook. Sometimes you just need a little help figuring out which rules you want to throw out.
