Synopsis

“She writes with the passion and intensity of someone authentically walking this path toward healing.” (Matthew Gallagher, LCPC) …breaking free from what binds us to our traumatic past…

Did you know that the CDC reports that 64% of adults have experienced some type of childhood trauma? Three out of four high school students have experienced the same.From witnessing, to unfortunately, being on the receiving end of a violent act, these numbers are mind-numbing. Children growing up with prolonged toxic stress are more likely to have harmful effects on brain development, immune responses, and social relationships. They grow into adults who suffer from: addiction, divorce, chronic headaches/migraines, fibromyalgia, poor life choices, harmful relationships, depression, self-harm, and suicide attempts throughout their lifetime.
Now is the time to address these gaping wounds in our society and our souls. This is a manual, of sorts, to guide those of us traumatized, through the maze of thoughts, feelings, and responses that accompany living and healing through traumatic experiences. Who Told You That You Were Shameful? describes the journey of oppression caused by misplaced shame and the intolerance, of many, to our lengthy process of healing complex wounds. This culminates in a beautiful encounter with Christ, staying grounded in faith, finding freedom, healing, and peace… And in the process, finding the ‘you’ that was left behind: hurt and forgotten.
