Realizer, Were you abused as a child? Is there any trauma or abuse in your history BEFORE the two years you mention in your first post? If so, that fallout could have a significant impact upon the later experiences and your perception thereof.

New Life Clinics, a Christian national chain of counseling centers, has helped a relative out greatly. They have MUCH material out there of help. My relative had severe childhood sexual abuse and its fallout to deal with in her adult life and she was admitted for a short inpatient therapy period. I will offer the book and work book which they used to facilitate therapy. I have many more on that subject for any interested, just ask. The therapy helped my relative significantly: Seven Keys to Spiritual Renewal (Spiritu | eBay

Thank you for the direction, I'll have to look into the workbook, I think an interactive self-help book will help me recover from a lot of things I've gone through.

Whatever labels one wants to put on their problems in this world, including myself, when we became new creations in Christ Jesus we immediately had our citizenry transcended to heaven. We are no longer of this world and the only hold on us it has is that which we give it. Our adoptive FATHER will lead us into His ways and understandings as we learn to hold tight and lean into Him. He loves and cherishes us so, in spite of ourselves.

I think I need to clarify. I've known my husband since high school. We'd already had a built and established friendship where I talked to him about everything, even during the emotional abusive relationship I was in. He very well knows what I am going through and is supportive of my wanting to heal, and attempts to be there in any way he can. Therapy is a healing tool I would like for the trauma.

That is great. I would still suggest talking to your minister/his wife as a means of extra therapy.
I would also be slow to name your needs, simple because giving them a name shapes them and it can make dealing with them harder.
