Healing in the Aftermath of Coercive Control

When you’re ready to turn the page.

I am a certified trauma therapist who helps individuals break away from the clutches of highly controlling groups and controlling relationships.

Nobody joins a cult. They join a good thing.

Congratulations

First of all, I'd like to congratulate you for getting to this point. If you’ve found your way here, you've likely already experienced a tremendous amount of personal turmoil, grief, and lots of second-guessing about what has happened to you.

You may have recently left a high control group and need a supportive partner to talk you through what has happened to you, or it may have been years since you left your group and you feel you're ready to start coming to terms with what you experienced. You may have been born and raised in a high control religion or high control group and are seeking ways to individuate yourself outside of that philosophy. You may have joined a group as an adult and need help understanding the choices that you've made and the undue influence that led you there.

No matter what your path to this point, therapy with me can help you begin or continue to unpack your experiences. I believe that all human behavior has an explanation. I think you’re a human who has been harmed and that your story is unique. I’d like to hear your story. Most of all I believe that with the right support, healing is possible. If you think we might be a good fit on your healing journey, please reach out.
