Produktbeschreibung

Whether you experienced trauma as a child or an adult, this book is for you. The book presents an alternative method of treatment supported by both anecdotal evidence and scientific study. The survivors of trauma are intended recipients of the book's message of hope and inspiration, as well as those who assist people who have experienced trauma. I know without a doubt that the people I have met during my training have experienced trauma. Emotional trauma is far too vast for any one reader to be properly served. This book is dedicated to the thousands of clients, students, and colleagues I've had the privilege of teaching and helping over the past two decades. You've all been through a lot of mental anguish trying to cope with the suffering, disappointment, and sadness that you've known from an early age. Some of you have even thought of ending your lives. Working with many of you has shown me that adversity does not have to be permanent. Despite what some medical professionals may tell you, there are other options besides drugs and addictive behaviours for emotional pain management. As a trainee counsellor, I lacked experience. The ability to let go and heal has taught me that trauma is not a permanent state. Although 99 percent of healthcare providers, educators, social workers, and caregivers have probably dealt with trauma in their own practice, many of them lack specialised trauma training. Individuals who have suffered both early and later life trauma are likely to carry a deep sense of brokenness and a persistent sense that something is fundamentally wrong with them. Nonetheless, from their point of view at the time, they are fully functional. My life's work is dedicated to spreading the message that trauma survivors can and do recover from their experiences. Together, we can create a better world, one in which the effects of past trauma and emotional anguish are lessened.
