Content warning: religious trauma & talk about triggers

Welcome to the LAST guest episode of Mindful Minds!! As a little thank you, I have released my religious trauma sticker collection!! You buy the stickers on Etsy here!

This week we have a super special guest. I am so excited to welcome Dr. Laura Anderson (she/her) to the podcast!! Dr. Laura’s work has been so impactful in my personal deconstruction journey, and it was such an honor to have her on the show.

Dr. Laura Anderson (PhD, Saybrook University; LMFT) is a therapist, trauma resolution and recovery coach, writer, educator, and creator who specializes in complex trauma with a focus on domestic violence, sexualized violence, and religious trauma. Laura has a private practice in Nashville, Tennessee, and is the founder and director of the Center for Trauma Resolution and Recovery, an online coaching company where she and the other practitioners work with clients who have experienced high demand/high control religions, adverse religious experiences, cults, and religious trauma.

In 2019, Laura cofounded the Religious Trauma Institute with the goal of providing trauma-informed resources, consultation, and training to clinicians and other helping professionals who work with religious trauma survivors.

You can find Dr. Laura on social media at @drlauraeanderson , @traumaresolutionandrecovery , and @religioustraumainstitute . You can also visit her website. Dr Laura’s new book, “When Religion Hurts You: Healing from Religious Trauma and the Impact of High Control Religion” is out now!
