RELIGIOUS TRAUMA Counselling
Our counsellors support folks who have experienced trauma as a result of being connected to and/or raised in a religious community, high control environment and/or cult. Our therapists have both personal and professional experience in navigating the nuance of personal faith histories, spirituality, and oppressive experiences within certain communities. Our team has lived experience within Evangelical, Christian Fundamentalist, Catholic, Muslim and Jewish Communities, and we support one another in finding parallels and understanding differences within and between these worlds. We are ever-growing in our understanding of how intersectionality contributes to a wide variety of experience that exists for two-spirit, lesbian, gay, queer, transgender, intersex and non-binary people within religious communities. This diversity of experience includes and is not limited to ethnic and cultural background, gender, class, age, sex, sexual orientation, nationality, race, religion, relationship status, physical or mental abilities, and socioeconomic status.
