Frequently Asked Questions About Continuing Education
Why so many different words (religious trauma, spiritual abuse, high-control religion, etc.)
to describe one topic?
The topic of religious trauma is a relatively new discussion in the mental health field and there is no specific clinical language to describe the experience and presentation one might see. The impact is real, and folks are presenting to therapy with symptoms rooted in harmful experiences within religious/spiritual contexts. However, various terms have been developed to describe these experiences and presentations. The Religious Trauma 101 training will offer an introduction to some of the language commonly used to describe these experiences. The training foundational training entitled Religious Trauma: What Is It and How Can I Treat It? will provide vocabularly and more detailed information regarding the developmental impacts of religious harm.
Why are these topics important?
Being a well-rounded and competent mental health provider means having an awareness of a variety of presenting concerns that a client may bring to your work together. Many individuals who present for therapy have experienced some sort of trauma in their lives, which may include weight stigma or difficulties navigating the world as a neurodivergent person. These trainings provide important considerations for culturally competent and trauma-responsive therapeutic care.
