Tanya Johnson

Tanya Johnson is a dedicated psychotherapist who specializes in supporting women who have transitioned away from high-control patriarchal religions, guiding them towards creating the lives they truly desire. Many women experiencing significant shifts in their religious or spiritual beliefs often find themselves feeling sad, angry, and confused. They may grapple with doubts about their past decisions, relationships, and even their thoughts and emotions. For those spending hours engaging with new information, podcasts, and the online faith deconstruction community, Tanya offers a compassionate and insightful space for healing. Having been a former devout Mormon, she brings a unique understanding to those navigating faith deconstruction and religious trauma, particularly for individuals who have recently distanced themselves from American Fundamentalist Christian sects such as Mormonism, Southern Baptists, Jehovah's Witnesses, Pentecostal, or Seventh-Day Adventist communities. By working with Tanya, clients will have the opportunity to clarify which thoughts, values, and decisions genuinely resonate with them, as opposed to those imposed by their former church. She skillfully guides them through the intricate grieving process of relinquishing a belief system, community, and identity, empowering them to uncover their authentic personal values and inner wisdom.
