Our Compassionate Guides
Megan O’Brien Crayne, M.S., MDiv, LMFT-A
As someone who specializes in relationships, I pay particular attention to the relationships and systems that shape our sense of self. I have lived experience in both Evangelical Christianity and Catholicism, have studied theology academically and worked in professional ministry, and have done graduate-level research on purity culture trauma. Alongside generally processing the complexities of deconstruction, church hurt, and high-control religious environments, I particularly love working with people around the impacts of purity culture, the effects of working in ministry, and working toward reconstructing a more healthy and life-giving spirituality.
**Although I am a LMFT-A in Rhode Island, with Unravelling Free I am working exclusively as a coach
Hi! I’m Megan
So often, the deepest harms come when places we once felt safe - family, community, church - begin to feel unsafe. When connection with others requires us to disconnect from parts of ourselves, suppress our desires and our will, and put trust above intuition, we begin to compartmentalize our very selves.
This does not mean we are broken - it’s actually quite amazing that our bodies are so adaptive, working hard to keep us safe and connected in whatever way they can! At the same time, it comes at a cost - anxiety, hypervigilance, scrupulosity, guilt, numbness, shame, fear, physical tightness and tension, and a reduced capacity to trust our own experience are just some of the ways that this compartmentalization can show up.
But the good news is that you are not stuck here forever. My goal is for our relationship to be a safe container in which you can fully connect with yourself, your body, your experience, your emotions, and your intuition - using attachment science and mindfulness to move away from compartmentalization and toward neural integration, the foundation for mental and emotional health. I believe that people are good, that we are wired for connection, and that healing comes naturally when given the right environment, and I would be honored to walk this journey alongside you.

I work with individuals navigating religious trauma, faith transitions, and the process of walking away from high-control or rigid belief systems. Many of the people I support are healing from attachment wounds, loss of belonging, and patterns of self-doubt shaped by environments where acceptance was tied to compliance. I also work with OCD, particularly when it becomes intertwined with morality and fear of getting it wrong or being bad. Together, we listen for the wisdom already within you. Rebuilding self-trust, reconnecting to the body’s intuition, and cultivating a deeper sense of self-compassion and embodiment to offer space for who you are and who you are becoming.
Hi, I’m Sheridan. I’m so glad you’re here, just as you are.
I see healing as a process of coming back to a compassionate relationship with yourself and remembering that your humanity was never the problem. So much of the pain we carry has roots in the same place- environments that asked people to shrink, conform, or earn their belonging. This creates a disconnection from our instincts, our bodies, and our inner knowing and leaves a sense that parts of us are too much, not enough, or somehow unworthy of being fully known. Finding healing from these wounds can come with the ache of losing your sense of self and people who once were home all at once.
My work integrates somatic and depth-oriented therapy- often bringing in inner-child work. Together, we learn to listen again to those parts that have been silenced. It is a joy and a privilege to witness people rediscover a way of being that gives permission for their beauty and their brilliance to come through.

Some things that make me feel like me: a long walk, a patio conversation with people I love, wandering through new-to-me places, accidentally staying out too late and ending the night with karaoke. Lately, I have been finding ways to express creativity and practice bravery- whether through writing, painting, or jewelry making or learning something new- it’s been a way to stay curious and connected to who I am becoming.

I specialize in working with adults who have experienced hurt or trauma related to faith, spirituality, or religion in the context of their family or church. While I enjoy working with clients through any topics related to deconstruction or religious trauma, some of the specialized areas I work with include the impacts of purity culture, healing your relationship with your body, LGBTQ+ identity, religious-based OCD, chronic pain, childhood hurt or trauma, and helping clients connect to their true identity and values.
Hi! I’m Casey & I’m so glad you’re here.
I know that navigating hurt and trauma can be a long and difficult process, and my hope is to be able to create a safe, compassionate space for you as we work together to understand what you’ve experienced, heal past hurt, and find a path forward where you can feel free to be yourself.
If you’ve experienced hurt or uncertainty in relation to your faith, church, or family environment, it can be especially confusing to know what voices to listen to, who to trust, and how to navigate the complexities of your experience. Because of this, we will go slowly and explore together to make sense of what healing really looks like for you.
In moving through that process, we may bring in parts work- noticing and healing parts of self, including your inner child; somatic work to help connect you more to your body and work on releasing stored stress and emotion; self-compassion and identity work; and connecting to other resources along the way.

Growing up in Evangelical Christianity, I experienced comfort and connection through my faith, but also experienced the harm of things like purity culture and the extreme pressure to be a certain way. I began going through my own deconstruction process, shedding parts of religion I began realizing were harmful and even causing trauma in people's lives. Through that process I have began learning how to become more fully myself, and to trust my body and intuition. That also led me on a journey to learn how I could support others going through a similar process.
I started Unraveling Free in 2021, after months of dreaming about a practice that could be entirely focused on clients who had experienced the harmful impacts of evangelical and fundamentalist forms of Christianity. As it has grown, I have seen how powerful it can be for people to have a space where they are understood and seen, and able to move towards healing and freedom.

When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me drinking coffee while reading my newest book, or finding a new TV show to binge. I love routine, and creating rhythms for day-to-day life that help me connect to my own spirituality- like reading, being outside, moving my body, and spending time with the people I love. I also enjoy exploring the world through traveling to new places, going on long walks with my dog, Milo, doing yoga, paddleboarding, and doing home projects with my partner.

I specialize in working with adults wanting to process various challenges related to adverse religious experiences, rigid belief systems, high control environments, and dysfunctional parent-child relationship patterns. I appreciate the range of experiences I get to hold space for every day, but some of my specific expertise centers around Christian church hurt and problems related to deconstruction, loss of relationships and community, identity discovery, sexism, and purity culture recovery.
Welcome, Fellow Wanderer.
I know the road away from harm and into freedom is not always an easy one to walk, and it can feel hopeless and lonely at times for many of us. You do not have to walk this road alone.
High control environments, church hurt, spiritual abuse, and religious trauma can often lead to experiences of feeling isolated, ashamed, afraid, and disconnected from yourself and others. Those of us who are wounded need safe, connecting spaces to get deeply curious, explore, and heal, without someone claiming to have all the answers.
We are people who navigate the world through our bodies, who hold memory in our cells, whose wounds go beyond our thoughts. Because of this I tend to focus on embodiment as a path to healing. Parts work, inner child healing, somatic approaches, creative expression, nervous system regulation and brainspotting are some of the specific paths we can take together to help you unravel from harmful beliefs and learn to reconnect to your most authentic self.
My interest in this work sprouted from the soil of my own wounds and it is one of my deepest joys in life to create spaces where healing can be found. I’d be honored to hold that kind of space for you.

I know what it is like to come from a history of trauma to what feels like a safe container. I know what it is like to exist in faith containers that start to constrain and constrict rather than expand with us. I was deeply involved in a campus ministry throughout my time in college and worked in that same ministry for a year afterwards. Through this ministry I developed my spirituality and my belief in God, but I also learned how to partition off parts of myself that weren’t acceptable to the system I was in – specifically parts of me that were deeply wounded. After I left that ministry and moved to Denver, my husband and I became deeply involved in a local church here. At first it felt like a bigger container but when I started my graduate program in counseling and doing my own personal trauma work, I began to have words for the patterns of control, spiritual bypassing, victim blaming, and oppression I was seeing in Christian culture at large. All of these parts of my story were catalysts for my own deconstruction of who I thought God was and elements of evangelical Christian culture.
People like us often feel like there aren’t spaces to process- the spaces that once held us became unsafe or too small. Church hurt can lead to so many big questions that aren’t safe to ask friends who are still living in the context of the belief systems that caused harm. When we can experience connection with someone who wants to hear our story, who doesn’t judge us or spiritually bypass us, who empathizes with the harm we have been through, we can begin to move past the shame we took on and start to have the courage to untangle ourselves from previous ways of being.

Wanna know something? I see my own therapist and have for years. I do my own work because I know that’s the only way I can show up for you well. When I sit with you, I will be in awe of and inspired by you. French fries, Taylor Swift’s music and a good matcha latte are my ultimate comfort tastes. I believe creativity is the best medicine and we all have it within us. To me, every act of connection and every session together is a creative collaboration and I will treat it that way. My favorite way to spend my free time is settling in a cozy coffee shop or outside in the sun to write, research my interests, or paint.
