39.99 €
The book deals with c-PTSD (complex post-traumatic stress disorder), which is a result of childhood trauma that develops in children from a wide range of ages when parents are not loving and patient enough, are overly demanding, overly preoccupied with themselves, use corporal punishment, humiliate children verbally, physically or psychologically, or use violence of all kinds. Children growing up in such families develop defense reactions from infancy, which later in adulthood prevent them from loving others, trusting them and establishing full human relationships, which leads to the development of c-PTSD. The author offers his method of healing based on the methods of cognitive-behavioral therapy. The book is aimed at practicing psychotherapists and their clients with c-PTSD and can be used as a self-help manual for all victims of childhood trauma.
"Pete Walker's new book is an invaluable and comprehensive resource for anyone with a history of childhood trauma. This book is sure to be helpful to clients and clinicians alike." Julia Scheinman, M.A. The causes of c-PTSD caused by childhood trauma vary from overly harsh parenting to domestic violence. Many trauma victims, although living in "normal" families, did not receive parental love, but instead grew up in an atmosphere of fear, neglect, and stress; with living parents, they felt orphaned and neglected. As adults, they continue to suffer the effects of toxic parenting. If as a child you felt unloved, rejected, unwanted, hated, childhood trauma must have affected your soul, psyche, and body. This book is a practical guide to recovering from childhood trauma. It includes stories of the author and his clients as illustrations and shares their journey of recovery from trauma. The book serves as a self-help guide for those working to rid themselves of the toxic legacy of an unhappy childhood so that they can learn to enjoy life and love in the present.
