Religious Trauma Consultation Group

Join Kendra Snyder, LMFT and Kayla Felten, LICSW for this Religious Trauma consultation group. We will meet on a monthly basis--usually the last Sunday of every month from 11:00am - 1:00pm Central Standard Time*. Kendra and Kayla are both twin cities-based therapists as well as the co-founders of the Reclamation Collective. We invite those seeking to expand their practice in holding space for those navigating Religious Trauma, Spiritual Abuse, and other Adverse Religious Experiences to please join us for this monthly consultation time for us to learn and develop our practice, while also collaborating to expand the services and resources available to this precious demographic.

Please note that these consultation groups are specifically for people currently licensed or on their educational path to mental health certification and/or licensure. While we acknowledge and validate that not all folks supporting survivors are mental health professionals, these consultation groups are very specifically curated to support those with connection to a code of ethics and clinical intervention.
