Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Spirituality issues can deeply affect individuals grappling with addictions, relationship issues, or depression. For instance, feeling disconnected from one's spiritual beliefs or struggling to find meaning in life can exacerbate feelings of emptiness or despair, contributing to depression. To support someone facing this challenge, I would focus on exploring their spiritual beliefs, values, and practices, helping them reconnect with sources of meaning and purpose in their lives. This may involve encouraging spiritual practices such as meditation, prayer, or engaging in community activities aligned with their beliefs.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
People who are engaging in intense, deeper personal work often find themselves considering thoughts and feelings about spirituality. This can mean entirely different things to different people. While there are no right or wrong answers to questions about spirituality due to its intensely personal nature, exploring and developing one's sense of spirituality can be a deeply rewarding experience, and can help us develop in deeper ways that are very helpful to living a more fulfilling life. Having engaged in a great deal of this type of work myself, I feel well-qualified to help clients navigate this area of therapy work. I enjoy using various therapeutic approaches in this work, with a Jungian approach often proving to be very helpful.

Dr. Amanda Roberts
Psychologist, PhD Clinical Psychology, Masters in Marriage Family Therapy
We are fundamentally spiritual beings. When we become divorced from this reality we are exiled from our essence. Spiritual bankruptcy is the basis for most of our suffering in this incarnation. A reclamation of who we truly are provides the remedy and pathway towards a more joyful, compassion filled life.

Christine Henry
Psychologist, Ph.D
People often minimize the impact of religious trauma. It's like having a million apps running in the background, which slows your computer speed and its ability to complete tasks. You do not have to live life in the slow and glitchy lane. You can rediscover who you are. Therapy can help you re-evaluate your values and your wants in life instead of being told what they are. You can re-learn so you can have healthy relationships with others. Find a new belief system to replace the one that no longer fits you. It can feel scary to trust a therapist give that you have been hurt before. However, therapy is a good first step in learning not only how to trust others but also how to trust yourself.
