Episode 166 - 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. This follows up 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
• 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 - so be sure to lean into today's conversation.

Discover how the barrier built by porn addiction can become a bridge to abundant life.

What if lust for porn is really a search for true passion?

In a world where there are 68 million searches for pornography every day and where over 70 percent of Christian men report viewing porn in the last year, it's no surprise that more and more men struggle with an addiction to this false fantasy. Common wisdom says if they just had more willpower or more faith, their fight would be over.
