OVERVIEW:

Spiritual trauma has become a more widely discussed topic in the past few years. However, there is often a lack of understanding of what exactly spiritual trauma is and the ways it impacts those who experience it. In this 1-hour training, we take a deep dive into what spiritual trauma is and is not, the difference between types of spiritual trauma, ways to recognize when this type of trauma has occurred, and how to offer support and care.

OBJECTIVES:

By attending this training, you will be able to:

• Describe spiritual trauma and identify examples of spiritual abuse.
• Distinguish between overt and covert spiritual trauma.
• Identify signs and impacts of spiritual trauma.
• Discover resources and methods helpful in providing care for spiritual trauma.
