Caitlin Torres Graham regularly works with people who are grieving, whether that’s coming out, loss, death or, you guessed it, leaving a high-demand religion. As a trauma-informed art therapist, Caitlin works particularly with those grappling with their queer identity for the first time. Leaving behind a conservative religion has a lot of parallels and can leave behind a lot of trauma and fear. 

On this episode, Caitlin joins the show to talk about how art expression can be a tool to go from survive to thrive, helping foster a sense of identity and psychological safety along the way. Plus, what can dill pickles and painting teach us about our boundaries and ourselves? Listen in to find out!
