Therapy, Faith, and God as a Friend | 010 – Brittany Van de Straat
Brittany Van de Straat is a mother of two, a brilliant psychologist, and a faithful daughter who has spent years learning how to move from performing for God to simply being with Him. She is also (insert Borat voice here) my wife.In this honest and heartfelt episode, Britt opens up about her journey through therapy, deconstruction, motherhood, and rediscovering the kind of faith that’s rooted in friendship with Jesus. She shares how growing up in church shaped her sense of purpose, but left her unsure if God actually liked her, and how slowly, through healing and stillness, she came to believe that He does.Britt also talks candidly about mental health, why therapy and faith can work together perfectly, and how slowing down has helped her build a deeper, quieter, more joyful relationship with God. This episode is thoughtful, relatable, and full of encouragement for anyone tired of feeling like they have to earn God’s love.Subscribe for more honest conversations about faith, purpose, and trusting God through it all.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/trtdpodcast/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@trtdpodcast#BrittanyVanDeStraat #ChristianPodcast #FaithAndMentalHealth #RealFaith #SchemaTherapy #GodIsKind #TRTDPodcast #FaithThatHeals #GodAsAFriend #QuietFaith
