In the journey of life, our beliefs and spirituality play a fundamental role in shaping our identities and values. For many, religion provides a source of comfort, community, and purpose. However, for some, the very foundation of their religious upbringing can become a source of deep pain and trauma. Religious experiences can lead to deep emotional wounds known as religious trauma. Whether due to toxic teachings, oppressive practices, or spiritual abuse, religious trauma can have long-lasting effects on a person's well-being.
