Religious trauma isn’t just emotional—it’s physiological. The culture we grow up in shapes our nervous system, our identity, and our sense of safety in the world. When that culture is rooted in high-control religion, it often teaches people to disconnect from their bodies, override their instincts, and silence their inner knowing in favor of obedience. In my Utah-based therapy practice, I see the impact of this every day. Chronic anxiety. Shame woven into identity. Difficulty trusting joy. Feeling unsafe in rest. People blaming themselves for trauma they never consented to. Religious trauma doesn’t always look like a single event—it’s often a series of subtle (and not-so-subtle) messages that slowly erode a person’s sense of autonomy, safety, and worth. And the body remembers. Even when someone leaves the religion, those patterns often linger. This is where healing work begins. Naming what happened. Understanding its impact. And slowly building a felt sense of safety in your own body again. Religious trauma is real. And if you’re struggling, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. #religioustrauma #mormontrauma #exmormon #purityculture #traumatherapist #utahtherapist #nervoussystemhealing #mentalhealthawareness #deconstruction #therapy #mentalhealthtiktok
Part 3. Would love to know if anyone else struggled to “feel the spirit” growing up in the Church? #exmormon #exlds #healing #mybrainspottingjourney #brainspotting
