Matt Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, LMHC
My graduate school focused on humanistic and transpersonal approaches, which basically means we looked at the whole person, including their spiritual side. Exploring spirituality has been a huge part of my own journey too. I've trained in various spiritual practices over the years, and I see spirituality and psychology as deeply connected. When your mental health improves, you often have better access to spiritual experiences, and working on spiritual growth can actually boost your psychological wellness.
I believe dreams are one of the main ways we connect with our deeper spiritual selves, and I've helped a lot of people understand what their dreams are trying to tell them. Another area I specialize in is what we call "spiritual emergencies," which are intense spiritual experiences that can feel overwhelming or confusing, like sudden mystical experiences or feeling like you're losing your sense of self during spiritual practices.
I also work with people who want to make sense of psychedelic experiences or other non-ordinary states of consciousness. Whether someone has had a profound experience with plant medicines, meditation, or other consciousness-expanding practices, I can help them understand what happened and integrate those insights into their everyday life in healthy ways.

Spirituality: Navigating the Sacred and the Systemic
Formation, Deconstruction, and the Search for Meaning
Spirituality is often the "silent system" that governs our values, our sense of belonging, and our understanding of our place in the world. When this system is healthy, it provides a secure attachment; when it is fractured, it can lead to a profound sense of shut down, isolation, and existential burnout. With over 20 years of experience and a background that bridges the clinical and the theological, I provide a courageous space to explore your spiritual narrative with radical curiosity.
The Spectrum of Spiritual Inquiry
I work with individuals and "healers" across the entire spectrum of spiritual experience:
Spiritual Formation: For those looking to deepen their connection to the sacred and integrate their values into their daily lives and relationships.
Spiritual Deconstruction: Navigating the "liminal space" where your old beliefs no longer fit your lived reality. I provide a safe harbor for the doubt, anger, and grief that often accompany the dismantling of a faith system.
Spiritual Trauma & Disillusionment: Addressing the deep wounds caused by high-control religious environments, spiritual abuse, or the systemic misuse of power within faith communities.
A Multidimensional Path to Integration
Using Systems Theory, Attachment, and EMDR, we address the "soul-work" through a clinical lens:
Healing the "Attachment to the Divine": We explore how your early relationships with caregivers have shaped your internal "image of God" or the Universe, working to repair the anxiety or avoidance found there.
EMDR for Religious Trauma: We use EMDR to target the specific memories of "spiritual shunning" or religious fear-based messaging that keep your nervous system in a state of hyper-vigilance or rejection sensitivity.
Power & Equity: Using Systems Theory, we examine how social constructs of power and inequity have influenced your spiritual community and your personal sense of worth.
Holding Space for the "Professional" Spiritualist
As a faculty member who has spent years in both the academy and the clinic, I have a "special love" for working with pastors and spiritual leaders. I understand the unique burden of having your personal "spiritual deconstruction" happen while you are still responsible for the "spiritual formation" of others. I provide a confidential, peer-level sanctuary where you can be a seeker, a questioner, and a human—without the weight of the pulpit.

Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
Spirituality can be an important dimension of how we understand ourselves, find meaning, and connect with others and the world around us. However, religious and spiritual experiences can also be sources of pain, particularly for individuals who have experienced judgment, rejection, shame, spiritual abuse, or trauma within religious communities or traditions. I have a particular interest in working with individuals who have experienced harm in religious or spiritual settings, including those questioning, reevaluating, or leaving their faith traditions. Drawing from existential-humanistic and relational psychotherapy, I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore these experiences and their impact on identity, relationships, values, and meaning. My approach respects each person's unique worldview, whether religious, spiritual, agnostic, atheist, or uncertain, without imposing beliefs or encouraging any particular spiritual direction. Together, we work toward healing from painful experiences, reclaiming personal autonomy, and developing a more authentic relationship with one's beliefs, values, and sense of meaning.
