Counselling about Spiritual Distress or Faith Crisis

Understanding Spiritual Crises, Finding Meaning and Healing

Profound suffering – whether from serious illness, loss, or grief – often brings a deep shift in spirituality. Some experience an awakening, while others find solace in their religious or spiritual practices. Yet for many, suffering leads to spiritual distress or a faith crisis, leaving them struggling to find meaning in their pain. Life’s biggest questions arise: Why is my child so ill? I have not been a bad mother. What did I do to deserve this illness?

Dr. Wright offers counselling about spiritual distress and faith crises to help individuals, couples, and families find meaning, peace, and healing in their struggles. With deep compassion and wisdom, she creates a safe space to explore questions of faith, spirituality, and suffering – free from guilt or shame.
