Listen "Season 6: Episode 11 - Carya's Story Part 4"
Episode Synopsis
Through language rarely spoken in Christian spaces, Carya explains the difference between grooming and training, and how dissociation became the means of survival when life became unbearable. Carya invites listeners to see not only the trauma, but the mercy that allowed her to endure it. Her words call us, the Church to deeper understanding, and to become a place where stories like hers can be known and safely held.Show Notes:Episode 4 Self-CareEpisode 6 Dr. Heather EvansShattered No More by Dr. Heather GingrichCTHN, Tools and HandoutsSelf-Regulation for Daily TriggersThe Essential Skill to Regulate Your Nervous SystemTherapy in a NutshellJustice From the Victim’s Perspective by Judith HermanHonoring the Truth: A Response to the Backlash by Ellen Bass and Laura DavisEscaping Enemy Mode by Dr Jim WilderServing SRA Survivors: Satanic Ritual Abuse Recovery by Kay Elise TolmanLalich Center on Cults and CoercionRAINN.org - Informational Support for sexual abuse survivorsOn the Threshold of Hope by Diane LangbergEscaping High-Control Religious GroupsSafe To Hope is one of the resources offered through the ministry of Help[H]er, a 501C3 that provides training and resources for those ministering in one-another care, and advocacy for women in crisis in Christian organizations.
