Title
Working With LGBTQI+ Clients Who Have Experienced Religious and Spiritual Abuse Using a Trauma-Informed Approach
Abstract
Many LGBTQI+ clients have been explicitly harmed by religious leaders and those using religious doctrine. This experience can go beyond discrimination and oppression; a person may have experienced serious emotional and spiritual abuse at the hands of faith practitioner attempting to condemn affectional orientation and/or gender identity variance in order to comply with religious doctrine. The current religious conflict with LGBTQI+ issues is briefly reviewed. Authors define and explore spiritual abuse, as well as the experience of spiritual abuse as experienced by a LGBTQI+ person. Counseling challenges and strategies are described. Specifically, the use of a trauma informed counseling approach as applied to clients who have experienced spiritual abuse is explored. © 2017 by the American Counseling Association.
