Story
The causes of Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder range from severe neglect to monstrous abuse. Many survivors grew up in houses that were not homes-in families that were as loveless as orphanages and sometimes as dangerous. If you felt unwanted, unliked, rejected, hated, and/or despised for a lengthy portion of your childhood, trauma may be deeply engrained in your mind, soul, and body. This book is a practical guide to recovering from lingering childhood trauma. It is copiously illustrated with examples of the author's and his clients' journeys of recovering.

The concepts and interventions introduced in this book are designed as an adjunct to, and in support of, other methods of treatment rather than as a stand-alone treatment or manualized approach. By drawing on the therapeutic relationship and adjusting interventions to the particular needs of each client, thoughtful attention to what is being spoken beneath the words through the body can heighten the intimacy of the therapist/client journey and help change take place more easily in the hidden recesses of the self.

In Trauma and Memory, best-selling author Dr. Peter Levine (creator of the Somatic Experiencing approach) tackles one of the most difficult and controversial questions of PTSD/trauma therapy: Can we trust our memories? While some argue that traumatic memories are unreliable and not useful, others insist that we absolutely must rely on memory to make sense of past experience. Dr. Levine suggests that there are elements of truth in both camps.

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

The premise of Trauma and the Body is that, by adding body-oriented interventions to their repertoire, traditionally trained therapists can increase the depth and efficacy of their clinical work. Sensorimotor psychotherapy is an approach that builds on traditional psychotherapeutic understanding but includes the body as central in the therapeutic field of awareness, using observational skills, theories, and interventions not usually practiced in psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Trauma and Recovery is revered as the seminal text on understanding trauma survivors. By placing individual experience in a broader political frame, Harvard psychiatrist Judith Herman argues that psychological trauma is inseparable from its social and political context. Drawing on her own research on incest, as well as a vast literature on combat veterans and victims of political terror, she shows surprising parallels between private horrors like child abuse and public horrors like war.

Publisher's Summary
Hope and light are on the horizon to help clients overcome the challenges of healing and releasing the pain of relational trauma.
The highly acclaimed Transcending Trauma explores a unique, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to resolving complex and dissociative trauma. In this transformative audiobook, Frank Anderson, MD, masterfully details an IFS path to therapy that allows clients to access their inherent capacity for healing - called self-energy - while also helping them welcome, as opposed to manage, the extreme emotions frequently associated with trauma.
Included are clinical case examples, summaries, current neuroscience research, and personal stories that will enable your clients to reclaim self-connection, experience self-love, and regain the ability to connect with and love others.
Designed with clinicians in mind, this audiobook offers a comprehensive map to complex trauma treatment that will enable listeners to:
- Learn how to stay calm and steady in the presence of extreme symptoms
- Discover a different approach to resolving attachment trauma
- Gain confidence when addressing shame, neglect, and dissociation
- Understand the neurobiology of PTSD and dissociation
- Integrate neuroscience-informed therapeutic interventions
- Effectively address medications and common comorbidities
- Incorporate IFS with other models of treatment
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Insightful and Masterful
I truly enjoyed the insights provided by Dr Anderson as it helps me deepen the IFS work I do with my coaching clients, as well as my own self healing work. I especially enjoyed the final chapter where Dr Anderson provides his philosophy on trauma as a teacher and the way he experiences connection to source. There are many books by IFS practitioners (all very good), and I totally enjoyed being able to experience Dr Anderson’s perspective in the model and it’s many uses. This will definitely be a go-to book for reference again and again. Thanks Dr Anderson!

Must for IFS Therapists
Much needed book. I think Frank has managed to fill in some gaps from IFS training, and also clarify some nuances. It seems to also strengthen the IFS model. Will re-listen a few times because IFS is main model I use.
