Religious Trauma Syndrome
Common issues for those who are Divorcing Religion:

Recovering from toxic Purity Culture indoctrination
-
Navigating marriage with a still-believing spouse
-
Coming out as nonreligious to friends and family
-
Coping with deeply religious and conspiracy-believing relatives

Recovering from religious trauma syndrome
As a registered professional counsellor personally acquainted with religious trauma syndrome (RTS), I can relate. As a trauma-informed religious recovery consultant, I can help you explore how RTS is currently impacting your life and navigate your recovery journey.
Much like a marital divorce, Divorcing Religion can be painful, confusing, and exhausting – with the added burden of isolation. The grief experienced when leaving fundamentalism is compounded by a lack of support and understanding.
Developed by a formerly devout fundamentalist evangelical Christian of over 40 years, Divorcing Religion is an on-line, live, interactive 6-week workshop designed to help you transition out of religion and into secular life.
