Growth & Meaning-Making

Spiritual therapy at Sagebrush isn’t about becoming someone else — it’s about coming home to who you already are. Whether you are healing from trauma, moving through a spiritual shift, or simply longing to feel more connected, this work can help you deepen your relationship with yourself and your life.

Through our work together, you may:

  • Feel more confident navigating spiritual or existential experiences

  • Gently deconstruct rigid belief systems and rebuild a path that feels authentic

  • Reconnect with your intuition and inner knowing

  • Learn to discern between anxiety, fear, and inner guidance

  • Realign with your sense of purpose and direction

  • Create daily rituals and practices that support your growth

  • Deepen relationships by showing up with more clarity and self-trust

  • Understand the deeper emotional or spiritual roots of anxiety, depression, or stuckness

  • Shift from fear-based patterns into more embodied, heart-centered living

  • Rebuild trust in your body’s wisdom and capacity to heal

  • Release self-sabotaging cycles that no longer serve you

  • Set boundaries that reflect your values, energy, and spiritual integrity

  • Feel more whole, present, and at peace in your day-to-day life

This process is both practical and soulful. It offers space for reflection, growth, and healing at your own pace — without pressure, judgment, or expectation.

What You Might Gain from Spiritual Therapy

Spiritual Concerns We Can Explore Together

  • Loss of Meaning & Life Purpose

    You may have achieved what you were “supposed” to a career, relationships, milestones — yet still feel empty inside. That quiet ache for something more might show up as disconnection, apathy, or a lingering sense that you’re off-course. This kind of existential questioning often surfaces during major transitions or after checking off goals meant to bring fulfillment but didn’t. While painful, this void is often the beginning of something more: an invitation to rediscover what truly matters to you.

  • Religious Trauma & Crisis of Faith

    When spiritual beliefs or communities become a source of fear, shame, or harm, it can shake your sense of identity and safety in the world. You may be grieving the loss of a once-comforting faith or trying to untangle your truth from the teachings that no longer serve you. This work often includes deep emotional processing, but it can also open the door to a more authentic, life-giving connection to yourself, your values, and your spirituality — on your own terms.

  • Spiritual Disconnection & Numbness

    Not all spiritual struggles are dramatic — sometimes they feel more like a quiet absence. You might feel disconnected from your intuition, your creativity, or any sense of sacredness. Life might look okay on the outside, but inside, there’s a dullness or emptiness that won’t go away. This is sometimes called a “dark night of the soul,” and it can mirror depression or anxiety. But it can also be a sign that your spirit is calling you back — slowly, gently — to something more alive and embodied.

Types of Therapy We Integrate in Spiritual Work

  • Sunlight breaking over an open field, symbolizing clarity, connection, and spiritual reflection

    Transpersonal Therapy

    Spiritual therapy honors the full human experience — mind, body, soul, and spirit. We create space for your beliefs, questions, inner wisdom, and emotional needs, combining traditional talk therapy with spiritual exploration. You don’t have to identify with a particular path — just bring your curiosity, your truth, and your story.

  • Figure looking out over a wide landscape, representing life questions, perspective, and inner clarity

    Existential Therapy

    This approach helps you explore the deeper themes of life — freedom, purpose, identity, and mortality — and how they shape your relationships, emotions, and choices. If you’re questioning what matters most or feeling stuck in the unknown, existential therapy supports you in living with more meaning, authenticity, and clarity.

  • Still water reflecting trees and sky, symbolizing unconscious exploration and emotional depth

    Depth Therapy

    In depth therapy, we explore the unconscious roots of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors — often through the lens of inner child work, dreams, stories, and emotion stored in the body. This process can help uncover long-held patterns, release internalized shame, and create space for lasting emotional integration

  • Hands wrapped around a mug in soft light, representing present-moment awareness and emotional grounding

    Mindfulness-Based Therapy

    Mindfulness therapy invites you to slow down and reconnect with your present-moment experience. You’ll learn to notice your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations with greater compassion and less judgment — supporting nervous system regulation and emotional resilience.

  • Open journal and pen on a table, symbolizing creative expression and inner reflection

    Creative & Reflective Practices

    Many of our clients find healing through quiet reflection, imagery, and symbolic language. In our work together, we may explore personal insights through poetry, reading material, journaling, or metaphors from nature. You’re welcome to bring in a meaningful quote, a passage from a book, a song that speaks to your soul, or simply a moment that’s stayed with you

  • Bare feet touching the ground in soft grass, symbolizing grounding, embodiment, and nervous system healing

    Somatic Awareness & Embodied Healing

    Sometimes healing isn’t just about what we think — it’s about what we feel in the body. Somatic therapy helps you tune in to physical sensations, nervous system patterns, and the messages your body might be holding. Together, we’ll practice noticing, grounding, and releasing stored tension — supporting a deeper sense of safety, integration, and presence.

How Does Spiritual Therapy Work?

Spiritual therapy is a gentle, integrative approach that weaves together psychological healing and soulful exploration. Sessions may look similar to traditional talk therapy — but the conversations go deeper. Together, we create space to explore your beliefs, questions, values, emotions, and experiences through both a clinical and spiritual lens.

Whether you’re moving through a spiritual awakening, unraveling old belief systems, or simply trying to understand the deeper meaning behind your anxiety, depression, or stuckness — this work supports your growth from the inside out.

What Our Sessions Might Include:

  • Exploring spiritual themes like intuition, purpose, grief, or belonging

  • Processing difficult emotions through both psychological insight and spiritual understanding

  • Nervous system support for grounding during periods of spiritual or emotional intensity

  • Healing old patterns that block your sense of connection — with yourself, others, or something greater

  • Weaving your spiritual insights into everyday life in a way that feels authentic and sustainable

You don’t need to follow a certain path or have everything figured out.
You just need space to be honest, curious, and supported as you find your way.

The Outcome?

A deeper sense of clarity.
Relief from psychological and emotional distress.
And a more integrated experience of who you are — mind, body, spirit, and soul.

What It’s Like to Do Spiritual Therapy at Sagebrush

Spiritual therapy at Sagebrush isn’t about fixing you.
It’s about making space for all the parts of you — the ones that feel lost, the ones that are growing, and the ones that are still figuring things out.

We blend modern psychology with a more soulful, reflective approach. That means we’re just as comfortable talking about anxiety and trauma as we are exploring purpose, intuition, and those deeper “what’s it all for?” moments.

You don’t have to be religious. You don’t need to have the answers. You just need a place where it’s safe to ask the big questions — or sit with them for a while.

What makes this work different?

It’s not either/or — it’s both.
We hold space for mental health and meaning-making. For emotions and intuition. For the human experience and the spiritual one — however that looks for you.

It’s about your whole self.
We work with your thoughts, emotions, body, and inner life — because healing isn’t one-dimensional. We’ll explore what’s going on internally and how it shows up in your daily life and relationships.

It’s a place for the stuff that doesn’t fit neatly in boxes.
We welcome the spiritual shifts, the religious wounds, the existential spirals, and the quiet “Is this it?” moments. Nothing is too much or too weird here.

It’s grounding and real.
You’ll leave with tools you can actually use — for calming your nervous system, setting boundaries, reconnecting with yourself, and finding peace in your day-to-day life.

Frequently Asked Questions About Spiritual Therapy

  • Spirituality can mean many things. For some, it's rooted in religion or faith; for others, it’s about intuition, connection to nature, or a sense of meaning beyond the day-to-day. At Sagebrush, we define spirituality simply as your connection to yourself, others, and the larger questions of life. You don’t have to label it to explore it.

  • Spiritual therapy can support people navigating:

    • Anxiety and depression with a deeper or existential layer

    • Religious trauma or spiritual abuse

    • Faith deconstruction and rebuilding a personal belief system

    • Life transitions, grief, and identity shifts

    • Feeling disconnected or numb

    • Spiritual awakening or crisis

    • Finding meaning, purpose, or direction

    • Reconnecting with your intuition, creativity, or inner guidance

  • Not at all. You don’t need to believe in anything specific to explore spiritual therapy. If you’re someone who’s asking big questions or craving a deeper connection with yourself, this work can be incredibly meaningful — regardless of whether you identify as spiritual or religious.

  • Spirituality is never forced or imposed. We simply make space for it — if and when you want to bring it in. That might look like exploring life purpose, spiritual beliefs, intuitive experiences, or the emotional impact of faith or disconnection. We blend this with grounded therapeutic tools, always centering your comfort, beliefs, and boundaries.

  • We’re not here to guide you toward a specific belief system. Our role is to support your exploration — not to advise, fix, or spiritually coach. We respect your autonomy, avoid dogma, and stay grounded in ethical, client-centered care. You set the tone for how much (or how little) spirituality is part of your therapy.

  • Spiritual therapy includes all the core elements of traditional therapy — emotional healing, trauma work, relationship support — but adds a layer of spiritual reflection, meaning-making, and curiosity. It's for people who want to talk about both their mental health and their inner life without having to split the two apart.

  • This depends on your needs. We may incorporate:

    • Mindfulness and somatic (body-based) awareness

    • Creative reflection (journaling, poetry, meaningful books or quotes)

    • Inner child work

    • Nervous system grounding tools

    • Exploration of dreams, imagery, or metaphors

    • Gentle conversation about intuition, values, and meaning
      We don’t do structured spiritual rituals or religious practices — we simply make room for the parts of you that are asking to be heard.

  • You don’t need to be spiritual at all — just curious, open, or even questioning. Many people who start this work aren’t sure what they believe, or feel disconnected entirely. This is a space for exploration, not performance. You’re welcome exactly as you are.

  • There’s no one answer. Some clients come for short-term support during a spiritual transition or crisis; others stay longer as they explore deeper healing. We’ll work together to find a rhythm and pace that feels right for you.

  • Look for someone who respects your values, doesn’t push their beliefs, and makes you feel emotionally and spiritually safe. It’s also helpful if they’re trained in trauma-informed care, somatic work, or existential psychology — especially if your spiritual struggles are layered with past pain or confusion.

  • We offer free consultation calls so you can ask questions, share a bit about what you're going through, and see if this work feels like a fit. There's no pressure to commit — just a gentle space to start the conversation.

  • We provide virtual spiritual therapy for adults across Texas. You can work with us from the comfort of your home, whether you're in Austin, Dallas, Houston, El Paso, or a small town in between.

  • We’re considered out-of-network with most insurance providers. That said, you may be eligible for partial reimbursement depending on your plan. We’re happy to provide a superbill for you to submit.
