150: McKenna Denson's Journey and Her Stand Against Joseph Bishop and the LDS Church

from Mormon Mental Health Podcast · host Natasha Helfer Parker

TRIGGER WARNING Rape and other abuse are discussed in this episode. In March of 2018, MormonLeaks released an audio recording and transcript of McKenna Denson interviewing Joseph Bishop, MTC President during her time she was in the MTC in 1984. Bishop groomed and raped her and now Denson is bringing suit against him and the LDS Church. McKenna joins Natasha to discuss the mental health aspects of her life as a young sexually abused child by her step father to her encounters with Bishop, and after. Natasha also dives into the cyclical responses of perpetrators and why this is problematic and shares advise on what kind of help there is and things to look out for.
