Restoring the Soul with Michael John Cusick Episode 232 - Julianne Cusick, "Treatment Barriers to Healing from Betrayal Trauma"
“Certain kinds of care for betrayal trauma actually makes people stuck or worse in their recovery.” - Julianne Cusick
On this edition of Restoring the Soul, Michael concludes his conversation with Julianne Cusick about Betrayal Trauma. Today they will focus on Treatment Barriers to Healing from Betrayal Trauma. Today’s conversation is a continuation from our previous episode on Barriers to Overcoming Betrayal Trauma. In summary, some barriers are:
- Continued evidence of the partner acting out
- Gaslighting (which is lying that changes a person’s perception)
- Partner’s inability or unwillingness to own their impact
- And the partner’s inability or unwillingness to open up and be honest about his healing journey.
Even if you feel this episode is far from where you are relationally, there is a chance you might know someone who is struggling in this way. I encourage you to lean in for today’s important conversation.
If there’s anything you’ll learn from this conversation, the key takeaway is that we have to address the underlying issues about the brokenness. We can’t just move forward.
