“I’ll never heal.”
Has that thought crossed your mind?
There’s too much pain. Too much trauma stored in your body. Too many horrible memories trapped in your mind. It’s an ocean to cross, and you’re just treading water.
You need deep internal healing.
So how do you plunge into the depths of your most profound anguish productively and safely?
With help from compassionate, well-learned people who’ve been in your shoes and have dedicated themselves to helping women like you.
Megan Owen is such a woman. As a trauma counselor, she’s on a mission to provide comprehensive therapy for abuse survivors that brings the deep healing they’ve been seeking.
In this episode, Megan answers these weighty questions and more:
- What are spiritual process groups, and how can I join one?
- How can theology be thick or thin (and why does it matter)?
- What do the Wizard of Oz and glass slippers have to do with any of this?
- Why do we need a baseline for healthy relationships?
- What are EMDR, IFS, DNMS, and CPTSD (besides a list of acronyms)?
- Why do people say other therapy didn’t help but her multi-dimensional, community-based approach made all the difference?
- Who is really excited about all that Megan is doing and wants to get the word out? (It’s me. I’m practically squealing. Listen to the episode for proof.)
