Break The Cycles
Christianity has long offered people a sense of hope, belonging, and comfort. There are parts of this religion that can be fulfilling and create more openness to love and gratitude. Along the way, there have been parts of the religion that have been used for corruption, power, and political leverage.
The mental health impacts can often lead to:
-
self-sacrifice and people pleasing
-
sexual dysfunction and unhealthy attachment styles
-
heightened anxiety and lack of trust in one's own judgement
-
overwhelming shame and lack of confidence
-
avoidance behaviors and substance abuse
-
existential dread and night terrors
These cycles of guilt, shame, and fear disconnect us from the true purpose of Christianity, to live like Christ and love your neighbor as yourself. The Soul Confidence 5-Day Masterclass offers a pathway to deconstruct mistranslated theology and hateful rhetoric of Christianity and to help you rediscover confidence in your spiritual beliefs. You’ll also gain insight on how religious dogma has impacted your mental health and leave with a road map on how to authentically express yourself & create healthier connections.
Reclaim Intimacy & Pleasure
Messages of sexual shame and taboo originating from religious teachings are interwoven in our society and can often lead to difficulties with sexual function and intimacy. The negative repercussions extend to stress, sexual dissatisfaction, and even physical symptoms such as erectile dysfunction, dyspareunia (painful sex), or vaginismus (tightening of pelvic floor muscles during penetration). For LGBTQ+ individuals, this is compounded by teachings that outright condemn their sexual orientation, causing a deep-rooted fear of being 'discovered' or 'punished.' So what does the bible really say about intimacy?
It's time to overcome the guilt and fear surrounding your intimate relationships and sexual experiences.

Theology Meets Mental Health
Our Process
While both understanding mental health and biblical theology are important for overcoming religious trauma, it is equally important to work on them together. There are root causes in each and addressing one without the other can be ineffective.
Seeking support from a mental health professional can provide the necessary tools for managing and improving mental health, but it may not help in understanding and creating a new paradigm of beliefs within a religious context. On the other hand, exploring biblical theology can provide insight and direction, but it may not address the emotional and psychological impact of the trauma as well as the identities formed around it.
Brandan's understanding of biblical theology can help provide comfort, hope, and spiritual direction. By taking into account cultural translations and historical contexts of biblical literature it becomes easier to dismantle harmful beliefs or practices that may have contributed to the religious trauma. In addition, Nathan's trauma-informed coaching helps to redirect unhealthy relationship habits including, fear of intimacy, lack of trust, and clinginess to bring about more authentic connection. The combined somatic and coaching model helps to break down the harmful habits in the mind and body, as well as the identities formed to protect oneself throughout these religious practices. Going through this process gives you the intellectual expertise of source literature, confidence in your own behaviors, and opens new possibilities for the way you connect with yourself, spirituality, and those around you.
Find Your Power
Carrying these emotional burdens can have far-reaching consequences that can move throughout various aspects of your life. These negative feelings can result in unhealthy attachment styles that manifest as an unquenchable need for approval and acceptance from others. This leads to patterns of people-pleasing and self-sacrifice that may feel noble but are ultimately self-destructive.
As you bend over backward to meet others' expectations—sometimes at the expense of your own well-being—you inevitably set yourself up for resentment, both towards yourself and the individuals or religious institutions that planted these seeds of guilt and shame in the first place. By confronting these issues now, you are opening a pathway to psychological freedom and healthier relationships, setting the stage for a life that is led by genuine passion, inner peace, and self-respect rather than fear and obligation.
It's time to stop hiding and be the person you know you can be.

This Masterclass Is For You If...
You've looked under the rug of Christian religions. You've been hurt, betrayed, or fallen out of alignment with rhetoric in many churches. You realize you've lost your power in your spirituality, your connections, and with your own authenticity. This class is for anyone looking to gain a deeper insight on religious texts and the identities they've formed because of them. While this will be taught from the lens of two queer men, it is open to people of sexual, spiritual, and religious identities.
What Are People Saying
As a queer Christian, I feel isolated from most other Christians. Brandan helped me to discover that I belonged within my faith and gave me the tools to begin healing my wounds of rejection.

I am a bisexual exmormon who has lived through a year of conversion therapy. Nathan's coaching created a safe space where I could process these hardships and learn to set clear and loving boundaries with those around me.
- Alexandria Moorman, 21, California
Working with Brandan to process my doubts helped me to find peace and courage to dive into deconstruction, not as a loss of my faith but as a rediscovery of it.
