A few weeks ago, I was invited to chat with Gordon Brewer of The Practice of Therapy podcast about working with those who have experienced religious trauma or spiritual wounds, as well as about my own journey into private practice. We had a great discussion, and Gordon recently let me know that the podcast episode is now available for listening.
You can listen online here, or find the episode wherever you generally listen to podcasts. Just search for The Practice of Therapy, and look for the episode entitled “Healing Religious Trauma and Spiritual Wounds in Private Practice.”
Here is a brief description of the episode directly from Gordon:
“In this episode, Michelle Moseley joins the show to discuss religious trauma and healing from spiritual wounds. Sadly, religious trauma often goes unaddressed and unrecognized because many people don’t think it fits into what typical trauma looks like. Michelle explains how to recognize religious trauma and spiritual abuse. Then, Michelle dives into the impact of purity culture and how that ties into religious trauma. Tune in as we chat about abusive beliefs around eternity, leaving a group practice for private practice, and continuing telehealth after Covid.”
Michelle F. Moseley (she/her) is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in NC (#12491). She believes ALL people deserve respect, compassion, and access to mental and physical healthcare. Michelle specializes in working with survivors of religious trauma, and with those who have body image concerns, finding there is frequent overlap in these areas. She also frequently supports late-identified neurodivergent individuals as they navigate the grief and relief of a new understanding of self.
