Are you navigating the complex and painful journey of a Mormon faith transition? Whether you are questioning your faith in the LDS Church, leaving the church altogether, or grappling with mixed-faith dynamics within your family, you may be feeling overwhelmed, lost, or even isolated. You may be struggling with feelings of guilt, shame, confusion, or fear of how relationships with family, friends, and community will be affected. It's hard to talk about. But, there is a way to find clarity and peace while redefining your beliefs and sense of self. There's a way to build your identity and move forward without compromising your values.

I am passionate about empowering individuals struggling with the various ways trauma may show up for them. Trauma responses may show up through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, physical health concerns, and so much more. These responses can also intensify when we go through challenges and transitions in life. Trauma is not "what happened to you", it is "how what happened lives in you today". With the use of evidence-based interventions, such as EMDR and Structural Dissociation, there is hope for healing and learning new behaviors that contribute to a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Healing is messy, and it’s also beautiful! You may feel stuck in a cycle that’s painful and no longer serves you, or you have a desire to look further inward. No matter the reason that brought you, I am glad you are here. It is 100% okay to ask for help, no matter what people have told you. Challenges are inevitable in life and are often a cue to action. When challenges go unresolved or unaddressed, they may get in the way of how you feel about yourself. The good news is there are many things you can learn and unlearn about yourself and the world you live in. I will support you through that learning and healing process.

Seeking therapy is courageous and vulnerable and choosing a therapist can be challenging. A trusting and connected relationship with a therapist where you can bring your full self without experiencing judgement is essential for change, since our distress is often related to disconnection from others or ourselves. Therefore, my primary focus is on building an accepting and safe therapeutic relationship while also appreciating your individual needs and remaining flexible in our work together. From this relationship, we will be able to identify factors preventing change and help you work toward living a meaningful life consistent with your values and goals.

Amy loves helping women who have experienced various types of trauma through the many female-only support groups she co-facilitates with her colleague Kirsty Nash, LPC.
Have you been impacted by the trauma of betrayal? Trauma within relationships can look like infidelity, physical abuse, sexual abuse, financial abuse, porn addiction, emotional neglect/abandonment, etc. from someone you thought you could trust like your parents, a good friend, or your spouse. When trust and safety are obliterated in significant relationships it can feel like your world is turned upside down and everything you thought you knew is now in question. In addition, symptoms of trauma can be extremely distressing but luckily there is hope and there are ways to find healing.
