Most people are overstimulated and dysregulated throughout the day.

Where did you learn that you're not valuable?

Trauma is too much too fast out of my control.

Dear young married couple, did you come into your marriage with a history of trauma?

Maybe you thought it was no big deal, or perhaps you didn't even label it trauma, but now you're

realizing that it's affecting your marriage. Maybe you have painful sex, lousy sex, or even avoid

sex altogether. Well, today I had the privilege of talking with Dr. Margaret Naguib. She is a clinical

psychologist specializing in

Christian counseling and in the treatment of trauma. She received her doctorate in clinical psychology

from Wheaton College, and she's been working in the field of Christian and secular psychology

since 1998 as a psychologist, as a speaker, and she's also an author. And she likes to focus on treating

the whole person, mind, body, and spirit. And she teaches Christian clinicians to integrate

the power of the Holy Spirit in their work. So she's an expert in providing treatment from a spiritual

perspective. And she's been featured in the wall street

journal today's christian woman fox news and lots of other radio programs nationwide and today

she's here to talk with us about healing from trauma but specifically healing your sex life when you

came into the marriage with a history of trauma.

Welcome, Dr. Margaret Nagib, to the podcast. Thanks so much for joining me today.

Thank you, Krista. I love that we're on here together today.

Oh, me too. You are a beautiful resource to this world, and specifically you have been a resource to some of my friends friends and I'm really grateful that you're here to talk about such an important topic. This topic of trauma and people's

triggers, especially in the context of marriage, comes up quite a bit in our work with people

clinically, but also just in social conversations.
