Religious Trauma

Religious Trauma Can Look Like

Feeling afraid of God
Shame around your identity
Pressure to be “perfect”
Fear of questioning leadership
Feeling unworthy, sinful, or “never enough”
Confusion about boundaries
Spiritual manipulation
Being told your emotions are a lack of faith

What Healing Looks Like

Rebuilding trust in God’s love
Releasing fear-based theology
Separating God from harmful people
Healing shame, guilt, and unworthiness
Reconnecting with your authentic self

You don’t have to abandon faith to heal. You simply get to heal the parts that were never God’s doing in the first place.
