Episode 6: How Church Leadership Can Help Those In Betrayal Trauma

Have you ever wondered how church leadership can help those in betrayal trauma? I've got some tips that will transform how clergy can help someone through the painful process after betrayal. Join me, host Jeni Brockbank as I give many sources along with my own experiences.

Ecclesiastical leaders are often first responders to people in trauma and have the opportunity to offer guidance so that people can find true and lasting healing.

All denominations are welcome and while I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, I have chosen information that I believe applies to most religions. So, whether you are a bishop, a priest, a rabi, a relief society president, a church service missionary or just a curious observer, you are welcome here.

I have a strong belief that gaining education regarding betrayal trauma will increase the capacity to guide wounded patrons to the one true source of healing: God.

If you wonder how church leadership can help those in betrayal trauma, then this podcast episode is for you.

If you like research, then you are in luck because this episode is heavily sourced.
