Life After Trauma: A Workbook for Healing 2nd Edition

💝Utterly EXQUISITE, I can recommend this, BOTH as a Complex PTSD Survivor AND the 6th Mental Health & Addictions Peer Recovery Advocate certified in Ohio. Not even 30 pages in, I was experiencing new insights into Past, Present & Sentiment No Longer Functional Coping Mechanisms, privately, safely, WITHOUT needing to call for help, and ACTUALLY SLEEPING WELL after. 💁‍♀️The authors REPEATEDLY emphasize NOT moving forward, page to page, without feeling securely safe, giving readers permission to flow through the material at a more leisurely pace, without feeling lazy. 🏆ESPECIALLY VALUABLE is the thorough way in which trauma is approached WITHOUT SPECIFYING CAUSES. A sister of mine who's home blew up due to a faulty furnace is as comforted as I, a sexual assault survivor. 🥰Working through this, I felt respected, intelligent, active, productive, and NOT Wounded. 🌻My thanks to the authors for granting We Readers Dignity on every page.🌻

I give this to patients that are trauma survivors. Helpful thought the process.

This book is very well written and I actually look forward to reading my assignments out of it. There are very practical life-lessons to be learned from this book. The step by step processes and the insights are well worth any price. This book is great for teaching you to take care of yourself as those who have been traumatized in life usually have issue taking care of themselves. This book stands alone and is not a workbook in the sense that it goes along with another text. This is a book that you read and work in.

Great read for me. I am still working on it. I suffer with PTSD and I am currently starting EMDR treatment and this book helps with being able to use a combination of reading and therapy. This book is a good read and also helpful for those who are on their journey and need a little bit of help on their own as well at home to help them when they're not in therapy. Overall, a book to help you become and learn to stay strong from what your individual trauma is. The workbook helps you and goes easily into things, in a gentle matter and doesn't rush into things. You work at your own pace and just take your time. No need to rush anything, especially with trauma. Gentle read and gentle approach. Definitely one of the good ones.

As a survivor of sexual assault my therapist recommended this book, as it is one she uses in her sessions on a regular basis. I have found it very helpful as an air in therapy and my daily life. I HIGHLY recommend this book for ANYONE who has suffered a trauma of any kind.

Heard great things about this book will be reading soon but looks like a good read

Book came in excellent condition. I am looking forward to utilizing this book that my therapist recommended. It appears to be very helpful and thought-provoking on many key issues that those of us that have suffered from traumatic events need to focus in on.

Excellent self-help workbook. It really helped me with my PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). There is a great book to read with same title. I don't write in the book in case a episode occurs with different answers to my emotions. I use with a notebook to write in. Just FYI
