About this listen

If the place that was supposed to be your sanctuary became the source of your deepest pain, you are not alone. In this video, we discuss how to heal from church hurt and navigate the complex emotions of religious trauma and spiritual abuse.

Leaving a toxic church environment can feel like a betrayal—not just by people, but by God. As a counselor, I want to validate your experience and offer you a clinical path forward. We will walk through 4 practical steps to help you separate your spirituality from the pain of the past, grieve the loss of your community, and redefine safety on your own terms.

We cover:

  • Why "church hurt" is a real injury that needs validation.
  • How to separate God from the "gatekeepers" who hurt you.
  • The importance of grieving the loss of your church community.
  • Setting boundaries to protect your peace moving forward.
