The Harm of Rigid Christian Counseling Recovering from Religion 2025-10-04 | 🎥 The Hidden Harm of Rigid Christian Counseling in RelationshipsIn this video, a licensed secular therapist speaks candidly about the damage that can occur when religious-based counseling imposes rigid gender roles and prioritizes doctrine over emotional wellbeing.For many couples—especially those from conservative Christian backgrounds—faith-based counseling can feel more like judgment than support. Instead of healing, clients often leave with feelings of shame, inadequacy, or pressure to conform to outdated marital roles.⚠️ When therapy reinforces control instead of empowering individuals, it stops being care and starts being coercion.If you've been hurt by rigid or religious counseling, you’re not alone. There is help available that respects your autonomy, your identity, and your journey.🔗 Find a secular, evidence-based therapist at:👉 seculartherapy.org🧠 No dogma. No shame. Just ethical, science-based care.💬 Share your experience in the comments:Have you encountered religious counseling that left you feeling worse? What helped you heal?#SecularTherapy #ReligiousTrauma #FaithDeconstruction #ChristianCounseling #CouplesTherapy #Exvangelical #MentalHealthAwareness #TherapyWithoutJudgment #ReligiousAbuse #MentalHealthSupport

RfRx - From Superstition to Science: Unmasking the Myths of Tourette Syndrome, with Adrienne Hill Recovering from Religion 2025-10-02 | Tourette Syndrome has been widely misunderstood throughout history and even today. During the Spanish Inquisition, individuals exhibiting Tourette-like behaviors were sometimes accused of being possessed by demons and tragically burned at the stake. In modern times, people may avoid seeking appropriate treatment because of psychiatric denial, hoping that prayer, positive thoughts, diet, or simply just growing out of it will improve the condition. Join Adrienne Hill as she talks about the sounds, movements and myths surrounding Tourette Syndrome.

RfRx - What is Orthodox Judaism? An Inside Look From Someone Who Left the Path, with Daniel Sokoloff Recovering from Religion 2025-09-28 | Judaism is one of the oldest extant religions, but due to a history of oppression and genocide, the most religious practitioners maintain an insular, almost secretive culture that the average person isn't privy to.

Why Religion Doesn’t Belong in Your Therapy Session | Secular Therapy Project Recovering from Religion 2025-09-11 | Have you ever left a therapy session feeling judged or uncomfortable because of a therapist’s religious beliefs? You're not alone.Far too many therapists bring personal faith into their practice — even when it’s unwanted or harmful to the client. For people recovering from religious trauma, deconstructing belief systems, or simply living secular lives, this can be retraumatizing.That's where the Secular Therapy Project comes in.It's a national registry of licensed, evidence-based, secular therapists who are committed to keeping therapy focused on you, not their personal beliefs.🌐 Learn more: seculartherapy.org

RfRx - Sex and Gender Diversity in the Animal World, featuring Dr. Nathan Lents Recovering from Religion 2025-08-24 | Just as dominant societal forces enforced heteronormative, patriarchal, puritanical, and overly simplistic values on human sexuality, the sexual diversity of animals has been largely ignored or misinterpreted by biologists. But the field of biology has now begun overcoming this bias, and now it studies and describes the sexual diversity in animals – something which is normal and natural and leads to robust populations more adaptable to changes in their environment. In his presentation, Nathan H. Lents will discuss these topics, and describe the myriad ways that animal bodies are sexed, the varieties of “genders” within sexes, and other forms of sexual diversity among animals.Hosted by Kara Griffin, Online-Programming Director, and Rob Palmer, RfR AmbassadorRecorded on May 19, 2025Resource List: Books such as:Evolution’s Rainbow - RoughgardenForest EuphoriaEveBitch - Lucy CookeBodies in DoubtSex at DawnSex is a SpectrumBiological ExuberanceDifferent - Franz de WaalSex RulesGuest Links:www.linktr.ee/nathanlentshttps://linktr.ee/RecoveringFromReligionfacebook.com/RecoveringfromReligioninstagram.com/rfrorgtiktok.com/@recoveringfromreligionhttps://bsky.app/profile/recoveringfromreligion.orglinkedin.com/company/rfrorgThe primary focus of Recovering from Religion (RfR) is to offer hope, healing, and support to those struggling with issues of doubt and non-belief.

RfRx - Filling the Vacuum Left Behind by Religion with a Love for Science, featuring Bertha Vazquez Recovering from Religion 2025-08-22 | Bertha Vazquez is an educator and advocate for reason and science. Despite 13 years of Catholic schooling Bertha had a "reverse road to Damascus moment" in her early teens, questioning the sexism and contradictions in her faith. Science soon became her guiding principle. A retired middle school science teacher with 34 years in Miami-Dade County Public Schools, Bertha now directs education at the Center for Inquiry, leading a nationwide network of teachers. Bertha will share her journey of deconversion and the power of science, reason, and critical thinking in shaping a meaningful worldview.
