Songs for the Forgotten: A Psychiatrist's Record combines pivotal moments from Julia Burns's Southern upbringing in the 1970s with case histories accumulated through three decades of treating psychiatric patients, particularly those drowning in the cultural epidemic of child abuse. This book is her journal of rupture and return. The reader will follow the author's hard-won reconciliation. In telling panoply of stories, including her own, Burns argues for the interconnectedness of humanity: when one child is hurt, our humanity is violated, and we are all responsible for undoing that damage. If no one steps up to save children, to show them they are worth saving, the cycle of abuse will continue. Songs for the Forgotten offers a strong practical component, providing information about trauma and healing. Burns illustrates how hope and wholeness can come from remembrance and telling.

Autorenporträt
Julia W. Burns, MD has worked as an adult, child, and adolescent psychiatrist healing trauma, for over thirty years. She studied music and psychology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and medicine at Wake Forest University Medical School. She first learned about childhood trauma in her role as Medical Director of a three-hundred-child welfare agency. Dr. Burns' first book, Momma, Who's Babygod?, shows how prayer and the Holy Spirit can influence parent-child dynamics. She has published articles in Buddhist and trauma-survivor magazines. She deeply believes that all wounds, no matter how severe, can be healed, and demonstrates this in her books. The author lives in Chapel Hill, North Carolina with her husband.
