Episode 24 Religious Trauma
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1929025/open_sms">Send us a Text Message.</a></p><p>In this episode. Dr. Janys interviews Dr. Tanya Johnson (she/her/ella) a queer, neurodivergent, Cuban-American counselor educator, clinical supervisor, and licensed mental health counselor who was raised as a devout Mormon in Salt Lake City Utah. Dr. Johnson specializes in supervising and mentoring neurodivergent clinicians in private practice and treating religious, existential, and relational trauma in LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent adults.</p><p>Dr. Johnson shares about religious trauma through an intersectional feminist lens, addressing relational, cultural, and intergenerational dimensions of religious trauma. She describes how marginalized people in high-control religious and spiritual communities are particularly susceptible to religious trauma as many fundamentalist patriarchal religions adhere to doctrine that condemns their very existence. Counseling people through a crisis of faith requires a multidimensional treatment plan that addresses intrapersonal, interpersonal, community, and cultural factors.<br/><br/>To learn more about Dr. Johnson's practice, visit https://www.evolvecounselingcenter.com/dr-tanya-johnson<br/><br/>If you want to learn more about Colorful Minds Collective, visit<br/>https://www.colorfulmindscollective.com/<br/><br/><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/><br/></p><p><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/omgimatherapist">Support the Show.</a></p>
