About this title

Synopsis

Childhood trauma does not stay in childhood.

It travels forward through the patterns it creates --
the automatic reactions, the relational templates,
the survival strategies that were formed to manage
the original wound and that continue to shape
your adult life long after the original conditions
have changed.

Healing From Childhood Trauma is a science-based
guide to understanding those wounds, recognizing
how they run your present, and doing the work
that changes them.

Inside this book you will find:

- What childhood trauma actually is -- including the
ACE research, small-t trauma, and why the body
holds what the mind cannot
- The polyvagal theory and the nervous system
science of trauma -- why you react the way you do
- The patterns trauma creates: relational patterns,
core beliefs, behavioral survival strategies,
and the reenactment cycle
- The three phases of trauma recovery and what the
work of each phase actually involves
- Nervous system regulation skills including
grounding, safe place, titration, and window
of tolerance expansion
- The grief and anger that trauma recovery requires
-- and why most people avoid them
- Reparenting -- becoming the caregiver you needed
-- with practical tools and daily practices
- How to heal relational wounds through relationships,
including the therapeutic relationship and
earned secure attachment
- Post-traumatic growth -- what genuine healing
makes possible that the defended life cannot
- How to build and sustain recovery for the long term

This book also provides clear guidance on when
professional support is necessary and how to
find a trauma-informed therapist.

You did not choose the childhood you had.
You can choose what you do next.
