Once you've experienced trauma, how do you heal? What you do look for in a counselor? What kind of therapy is right for you. And how do you take care of yourself as you begin your healing journey? Welcome to the Roy's Report, a podcast dedicated to reporting the truth and restoring the church. I'm Julie Roy's. And on this

podcast, you're going to hear a talk from our last restore conference by Dr. Phil Monroe on the

do's and don'ts of healing. Phil is a trusted voice in the survivor community. He leads the counseling

practice begun by Dr. Diane Langberg, a popular author and globally recognized trauma

expert. Phil is an expert on trauma as well and leads the Trauma Healing Institute at the American

Bible Society. And he's a repeat speaker at Restore and someone whose wisdom and gentle demeanor

has made him a favorite at the conference. But I especially appreciated his talk

at the last restore. So often I hear from people who knew they were traumatized and needed help,

but sadly, they didn't know how to find the help that they needed. And they ended up in the care

of someone who wasn't qualified or able to help them, or in some cases, the person who was

supposed to help actually made their

trauma worse. So this is an incredibly important topic and what I'm eager for all of you to hear.
