Is life feeling really overwhelming or confusing right now?
Maybe you’re struggling to feel like yourself after a traumatic event and can’t seem to get there. Maybe you’ve experienced deep hurt from religious communities or beliefs and don’t know what to do or who you can trust to hold a nonjudgmental space for your pain as you sort through your feelings and changing beliefs.
You may even be finding yourself constantly afraid and questioning your decisions, boundaries, or worth.
We are here to listen and support you as you process your trauma, religious/spiritual harm, anxiety/shame, chronic pain, and changes you want to make in your life.
Together, we will lean into the hard stuff, discover the unique you underneath it all, and explore how to heal, grow, and build a life aligned with who you are, your values, and your needs.
A high-control group is an organized community (often with religious or spiritual roots) that encourages its members to isolate themselves from the outside world, avoid noncommunity members, and maintain a distinct identity from mainstream culture. This emphasis on isolation and exclusivity can strengthen the group’s cohesion and control, and help members adhere to its beliefs and practices.
Religious trauma occurs when someone’s religious beliefs, practices, or experiences cause significant psychological distress, feelings of shame, and damage to their sense of self-worth and humanity. It often stems from teachings that dismiss normal biological drives, impose harsh judgment on human nature, or inflict emotional/spiritual violence through toxic theology.
Being taught you are innately flawed, sinful, or unworthy
Purity culture and sexual shaming
Having normal desires and boundaries violated
Experiencing rigid religious indoctrination and emotional control
Facing ridicule, rejection, or estrangement for questioning or leaving your faith
Spiritual bypassing – allowing spiritual beliefs to bypass developmental needs, medical needs, painful feelings, and unresolved wounds
When we say ‘Soul’, we are referring to your authentic, essential self. It’s important that you know that at Soul In Motion, no belief system is more important than the one YOU NEED to heal and be whole. Whether your journey leads you back to a more healthy and refined version of your original faith, takes you in a different spiritual direction, or guides you away from these terms and beliefs entirely, the choice and the destination are yours alone. Your authentic, essential self knows what you need.
You don’t have to keep living with the emotional fallout of religious trauma and high control group abuse. Through therapy, you can process the pain, overcome harmful beliefs, and rebuild your sense of self-worth from the ground up. Through coaching, you can identify how you want to use your experience to grow and create a life based on your unique gifts and passions.
At Soul In Motion, you will experience a safe, judgment-free space to explore your experiences, emotions, and identity apart from the dogma that has hurt you. You will have the support you need to explore what you want from life and how to embody it. You can find freedom from harmful beliefs and reclaim your authentic self. If you’re ready to learn how to move through and beyond the trauma of the past and embrace all you are, I invite you to schedule a consultation. You deserve healing and to live life on your own empowered terms.
Much like the lotus flower, the muddy waters of our wounds can be fertile ground for transformation.
