hi welcome to another episode of therapy and theology i’m lisa turkhurst with dr joe moonwallet right that’s right doctor now this is this is a new title that you worked for for a long time so it’s exciting to say it truly and of course we have jim cress he is professional licensed counselor and he happens to be my counselor and i’m so thankful for both of you and the influence you have in my life you know sometimes when we experience physical trauma or a physical wounding it’s when we ask the question how do i
know if i’m healing the physical healing is a lot more apparent it seems to be that we can see the scab we can see maybe that we’re putting medicine on it we can go to the doctor and there’s just a very visible reality that you know when it’s healing and when it’s not emotional wounding emotional trauma is a lot more mysterious and so today we’re answering the question how do i know if i’m healing so jim i know that over the years you have done a lot of work with people who have been through pretty significant
emotional trauma and so you’ve developed some mile markers that we can look for when it comes to healing now in a previous episode we talked about the stages of the impact of a trauma hitting us so you know we talked about kind of like moving through the stages of grief moving through those stages of the impact from a trauma but today we want to talk about mile markers of healing how do i know if i’m healing so quote that i’ve used here before on on these therapy and theology programs videos podcast i’ll use again
