Previous Episode

Experiencing Church Abuse (what does that even mean?)

** Warning: if you are currently in the middle of processing your own story of trauma within the church/religious organization, proceed with caution. Our hope is to inform, educate and bring to light what is meant by the term "church abuse." We don't want to cause further harm so take stock of where you're at and whether this would be helpful for you in this particular season of life. **

We are talking all about church abuse. What is it? What does it mean and how do you begin to heal from abuse at the hands of religious leaders.

Jamila Russell is one of therapists at Sunshine City Counseling who specializes in spiritual abuse and trauma. She is a recent graduate of Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando, FL and we are excited to have her expertise joining the team.

If you find this helpful at all, please share it. Our hope is to provide incredibly curated content and psychoeducation for YOU -- our people.
