Description:

“Healing that comes from God leaves no wounds open but healed scars.” Healing from trauma is a continuous healing journey of forgiveness, letting go, changing mindset, acceptance and moving forward.

We are not taught to heal from trauma. Trauma has a spiritual component to it. Healing that part of our spirit is essential as we gain self compassion and the ability to accept self compassion from others. This group will be like peeling layers of an onion, we are going to peel all the layers of past hurts, wounds and unforgivenss. Through the use of scriptural applications, self awareness exericses that will promote insights on how to work on healing our inner wounds. 

By allowing the Holy Spirit to work inside of your core as we peel those layers hurts and remove them through forgiveness. This will enable you to let go of the parts of pain, suffering, rejection, abandonment etc. that no longer work in our lives as we continue to heal. We will focuse on healing and moving forward from pain. I will honor and value all of your experiences and look forward to our healing journey together.

· Introductions

· Ground rules

· Trauma Group Syllabus will be provided on a weekly basis.

The purpose:

· The purpose is to allow a safe haven of healing, learning, and applying Christian biblical principles that will help us with the Holy Spirit guidance to heal our wounded hearts. To learn individual triggers, and how to identify them. To learn how to manage them productively. The emphasis will be placed on how to learn not to revisit the past by staying focus on the present journey of healing. To learn through practice, cognitive mindset changes by learning new skills, completing exercises, sharing testimonies, and exchanging and sharing tools that support everyone healing. Healing requires a positive healing environment of support from others, and we will be honoring and respecting each other’s story of trauma, healing and overcoming obstacles. We will share our stories in confidentiality and with sensitivity. We will share without judgments or without having to backtrack in-depth trauma events that should be addressed in a clinical setting. We will accept each other’s perspective as we expect for others to respects our perspective and opinions as well. We will bring positivity to each session through openness and commitment to healing. Are we ready to heal? Let’s start this healing journey
