029 Why a Trauma Therapist would Study the Bible (Adrienne Gibson)

April 25, 2022 • Season 2 • Episode 29

Can complex developmental trauma help us think better about theology and the Bible? Can theology help us think about trauma?

Adrienne Gibson (LCP) talks about about her work with trauma (generational, vicarious, and complex developmental trauma), her shift into teaching trauma to future pastors, how she has seen the for/against pendulum swing regarding therapy and theology, and how she is working to integrate therapy and theology.

At the end of the episode Adrienne talks about ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). Here is a link to that info.
