Wounded Healers: Depression Among Spiritual Leaders
This introductory primer confronts the stigma around mental health and spirituality and helps one gain a clearer understanding of how spiritual leaders find and sustain the energy to effectively participate in practices of faith, community, service, and self-care while struggling to maintain their mental health during times of depressive episodes.

Depression can often leave one feeling burned out and emotionally detached. Therefore, it is imperative to know how to integrate therapeutic practices and when and how to reach out for help so one can continue the good work to which they are called.

Wounded healers often operate from the intersections of theology, psychology, philosophy, and personal wounding. These intersections provide some of the best language, stories, and resources for how spiritual leaders have addressed their wounds.

Understanding these theological and philosophical concepts can help the reader begin to draw from the concepts and apply them to their own deep struggles and questions. You'll learn how depression and therapeutic practices manifested themselves in a few well-known spiritual leaders like Mother Teresa and Martin Luther King Jr, among others. Finally, you'll learn ways to become a compassionate witness to the struggles of leaders by entering transparent dialogue and being a willing participant in individual and community transformation.
