Your Therapist Needs Therapy

Your Therapist Needs Therapy 93 - Goodbye Church to Goodbye Earl, A Healing Journey with Emily Maynard

Jeremy Schumacher

Jeremy is joined this week by the incredibly insightful Emily Maynard. Jeremy and Emily talk about the journey to doing religious trauma work, the emotional cost of working in broken systems, and why private practice can be both liberating and ethically aligned. They unpack their shared roots in fundamentalist Christianity, the slow burn of deconstruction, and how religious trauma resurfaces in today's political climate. Emily brings wisdom on rebuilding identity, reclaiming ritual, and finding joy in being a human, there’s even a reference to a country song, so you know we cover a lot of ground. 

You can learn more about Emily and her practice at her website, and give her a follow on Instagram. You can find her on some great podcasts here with friends of the podcast. Community!

Jeremy has all his practice info at Wellness with Jer, and you can find him on Instagram and YouTube. To show your love for the show you can pick up some merch! We appreciate support from likes, follows, and shares as well!

Podcasts about therapy do not replace actual therapy, and listening to a podcast about therapy does not signify a therapeutic relationship.
