Book Description
A large segment of the population struggles with feelings of being detached from themselves and their loved ones. They feel flawed, and blame themselves. Running on Empty will help them realize that they're suffering not because of something that happened to them in childhood, but because of something that didn't happen. It's the white space in their family picture, the background rather than the foreground. This will be the first self-help book to bring this invisible force to light, educate people about it, and teach them how to overcome it.

Book Description
The deep pain of childhood abuse--whether physical or emotional, whether a child was neglected or wished nothing more than to be left alone--doesn't just go away. There's simply no just getting over it. Even if no physical scars remain as evidence of the victim's suffering, the deep wounds on their minds, hearts, and souls are still there. But it is possible to become whole and happy. Author of the successful Healing the Scars of Emotional Abuse, Dr. Gregory Jantz now helps readers understand the effects of childhood abuse on their emotional, intellectual, physical, relational, and spiritual health. He then outlines the steps to lasting healing, including grieving what was lost, learning to balance emotions with intentionality, regaining a positive relationship with one's own body and mind, and coming to an understanding of God not as a frightening authority figure like the abuser or an accusing judge, but as a loving creator, redeemer, and friend.

Book Description
Grounded in 40 years of clinical practice and research, this book provides a systematic yet flexible evidence-informed framework for treating adult survivors of complex trauma, particularly those exposed to chronic emotional abuse or neglect. Component-based psychotherapy (CBP) addresses four primary treatment components that can be tailored to each client's unique needs--relationship, regulation, dissociative parts, and narrative. Vivid extended case examples illustrate CBP intervention strategies and bring to life both the client's and therapist's internal experiences. The appendix features a reproducible multipage clinician self-assessment tool that can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size. See also Treating Traumatic Stress in Children and Adolescents, Second Edition, by Margaret E. Blaustein and Kristine M. Kinniburgh, which presents a complementary approach also developed at The Trauma Center at Justice Resource Institute.

Book Description
Written directly to individuals who have experienced childhood trauma, this book provides essential information that allows victims to begin recovering from their immense pain and suffering, and empowers them to examine their specific issues in order to become a true survivor. The American Medical Association currently estimates at least one in every five adults suffered abuse as a child. While childhood abuse or trauma is certainly not a new issue, it has reached epidemic proportion. Yet most clinicians have not been sufficiently trained to appreciate or understand the devastating long-term impact of abuse on the total person. John J. Lemoncelli, EdD, authored this book to enable those who suffer in silence to understand what happened, take control, and begin and maintain a program of recovery. It helps those abused in childhood to grasp how their experience impacted their development and the extent to which it negatively affects their present lives; encourages them to let go of the belief that they are damaged, dirty, or at fault; and provides an effective strategy for externalizing the source of their anguish, rather than blaming themselves. The author outlines several stages and common issues that may need to be addressed, but as no "one size fits all" treatment is possible, he provides strategies that empower victims to identify the specific sources of their pain.

Book Description
Do you feel like your life has gotten out of control, and despite all your efforts to keep it together, there's something inside you that just wants to burst out in rage and anger? Does it torture you to feel like you cannot trust anyone around you--that ultimately everyone will end up hurting you, and that you're better off alone? Do you constantly enter endless cycles where you blame yourself for every bad thing that has ever happened to you, to the point where you feel that you can't even trust yourself anymore? Those questions and feelings are just a sample of what people who have endured unresolved childhood trauma experience every day of their lives. It may be draining, and you may feel overwhelmed by the heavy weight of those shadows of the past that still haunt every choice you make, every relationship you choose, every decision you take... always pulling you down and seriously limiting your potential. It may be difficult to admit to yourself that you need change, but the mere fact that you're even thinking about it takes a great amount of courage--only by the conscious decision to embrace pain will things finally begin to get better. Did you know that an estimate of 35 million children in the United States have experienced one or more types of childhood trauma? The sad part is, most of those people will never get the proper guidance and care to actually heal and move forward with their lives. But this doesn't mean it'll be the same for you. And unknowingly, you may have already started paving the way to begin your healing journey and finally rebuild a life away from the shackles of the past. In Heal From Childhood Emotional Abuse, here is just a fraction of what you will discover: ● The most important piece of knowledge that will arm you with a feeling of empowerment--stop being the victim of a past you cannot change and finally start the healing process ● What you need to do to create the safest space possible in order to face negativity head on without worry or fear ● Groundbreaking insight and methods for fighting your inner monsters and finally winning the war once and for all ● The 4 most important components that will turn the idea of self-love from a concept into the most significant and tangible act of kindness you can offer yourself ● Why forgiveness is the golden key that will set you free from the weight of hate and anger, allowing you to move forward and live a happy life ● The #1 way to help you take the right amount of distance from painful memories and the toxic people around you who hinder your healing ● The vital tools to rediscover your new and empowered self, and how to effectively use them to find your lost inner balance and reclaim your life And much more. The past doesn't need to define us. Once we become ready to accept our reality and make peace with the scared child within us, a great story starts to unfold. It may seem like too much to deal with at first, but once you take the first step, and from there, work one step at a time, you'll notice how surely and steadily you're coming back to life.

Book Description
The traumatic affects of childhood sexual abuse can remain and recur throughout life for women who have not healed emotionally. This book by a family therapist shares stories from 18 women abused as children, explaining that healing can occur at any stage of life, and that healing, itself, occurs in stages. The author offers guidance to recognize the long-lingering potential affects of childhood sexual abuse including depression, anxiety, dissociation, and chronic shock, and she explains steps to take for recovery. Also presented are letters from women who have healed or are in recovery. Sexual abuse by men, juveniles, and female perpetrators is discussed, as is how children may act out the abusive behavior taught by perpetrators. The incidence of abuse by family members is also addressed. Duncan explains the dual dilemma—moral and legal—that women face in exposing a sexual perpetrator within the family when not protected by the legal system due to statutes of limitations. She also discusses controversial topics including false memory and disclosure of memory to the perpetrator.
