110: Dr. Quincee Gideon: No One Joins A Cult: An Expert and First-Hand Understanding of Religious and Cult Trauma

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dr. Quincee Gideon is a psychologist, educator, and expert in trauma recovery and post-traumatic growth. She is particularly interested in advocating for healthy boundaries, self-discovery and challenging our own inner shame. Over the years Dr. Quincee developed a specialization in codependency, how trauma impacts the brain and body, cults, and religious trauma. On the show we discuss religious trauma, cult trauma, what constitutes a cult, why a person would get involved with a cult, and so on. Dr. Quincee also shares her story of coming from a very religious upbringing to taking missionary trips to Africa and all the pieces of the puzzle that led to the work she does now.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“You should always be able to leave a group, no matter what.” - Dr. Quincee Gideon</span></p> <p><strong>Links:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.sasssays.com"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Christie’s Website</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Christie’s Instagram: @sasssays</span></p> <p><a href="https://www.quinceegideon.com/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Dr. Quincee’s Website</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Dr. Quincee’s Instagram: @drquincee</span></p> <p><a href= "https://traumastery.com/religious-trauma-membership"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Religious Trauma Recovery Membership</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://traumastery.com/training-for-therapists"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Training for Therapists on Religious Trauma</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://traumastery.com/religious-trauma-recovery-coaching"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Religious & Cult Trauma Coaching</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/7CVo2UmeuA2kIAFx1KrnTb"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Dr. Quincee’s Podcast</span></a></p> <p><a href= "https://www.joinonelove.org/?gclid=CjwKCAjwzY2bBhB6EiwAPpUpZvkH31gMDhM5YusUPynL3am-DBC52-QKcMGpCTMQ071RwRjybRMm_hoCoM0QAvD_BwE"> <span style="font-weight: 400;">One Love Fo
