There is a strong connection between Spirituality and Mental Health. Spirituality can help you feel grounded and bring a sense of meaning and purpose to your life, as well as providie hope and support in difficult times. Prayerful and meditative practices can bring inner peace and calm.
But what happens when your belief system is ripped apart? When you have been damaged or hurt by the communities and practices that were supposed to nurture and protect you?
Spiritual distress is both real and painful, and has implications for your well-being and mental health. I understand how this feels, and as a therapist I am committed to providing a safe space, accompanying those who have been damaged to find new ways of being and relating.
