The Truth About Submission (with CE)

Few concepts generate more confusion, harm, and resistance in therapy than submission.

For some clients, submission has been weaponized to justify dominance, silence, or spiritual abuse. For others, it evokes weakness, loss of agency, or the demand to endure harm. Yet Scripture presents submission as something entirely different—an intentional, powerful posture that creates safety, trust, and connection.

This training reframes submission not as weakness or abdication, but as the purposeful use of power in service of love and commitment. Drawing from theology, attachment theory, and clinical practice, you’ll learn how submission functions as a relational posture that secures attachment, invites mutuality, and facilitates repair.

Whether you’re working with couples, individuals recovering from misuse of religious authority, or clients navigating power and responsibility in relationships, this course offers a framework for understanding—and modeling—submission in ways that restore dignity, agency, and connection.
