Religious Trauma

WHOLENESS

Religious trauma can deeply affect a person’s sense of identity, faith, and emotional well-being. In this video, we explore what religious trauma is, how harmful experiences within religious or spiritual communities can impact mental health, and the journey toward healing and reclaiming personal beliefs. Gain compassionate insight into the challenges of religious trauma and discover supportive paths to freedom, self-acceptance, and wholeness beyond past hurts.

Part of a series on trauma, this video looks at religious trauma: the hurts that can happen within faith and religious communities. In this video: • Trauma with God, when a prayerful path doesn't turn out as expected. • Trauma with a policy or doctrine that conflicts with what your heart feels is right. • Hurts from religious leaders, and from community and culture. • Why it helps to name the specific piece that hurt, and heal it, instead of walking away from everything. Good for anyone whose faith journey has included pain.
