I specialize in helping individuals heal from religious trauma, navigate faith transitions, and rebuild their sense of self after leaving high-control groups. Whether you’re processing past spiritual harm, untangling family dynamics, or seeking clarity in your personal journey, I provide individual therapy tailored to your needs. My goal is to support you in reclaiming your autonomy, building confidence, and living authentically on your own terms.
I use Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support healing from religious trauma, faith transitions, and high-control groups. I also offer EMDR for trauma recovery. My approach helps clients rebuild confidence, set boundaries, and live authentically.
Through therapy, you can gain self-acceptance, rebuild your identity, and create a life that aligns with your values. I help clients embrace their most wounded and rejected parts with compassion. Call or email for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit—no pressure, no commitment!

In Gwen's care, clients are able to take a deep breath, remove the armor they've built up over time, and rediscover their authentic selves. I highly recommend Gwen to those healing from trauma, particularly the unique impact of religious trauma.
