"Putting together
the Pieces:
recovering & rebuilding life after trauma"
HERE IS A BOOK
FOR:
People recovering from trauma and for
Counsellors, Local Doctors & ALL OTHERS who meet recovering people
to use to:
- MAKE SENSE OF TRAUMA EFFECTS
- FIND WORDS TO COMMUNICATE
- and FACILITATE RECOVERY
Counsellor,
Francess Day's clients have been able to:
- After reading the book,
speak about atrocious situations they lived in fear of breathing a word
about due to ongoing 'paybacks' - in the support group! She also worked
with the trust issues that she has in every area of her life. At a
later set of group sessions, she shared how since speaking about things
in the groups, (without trying) she has been losing the weight that she
has protected herself with for over 20 years
- Finally acknowledge and
speak about the humiliation he felt after reading about it in the book.
On several occasions prior, when the word 'humiliated' was reflected
back to him in counselling, he just blanked. The same man is able to
reflect on how his own harsh pushing of himself has impacted on others
and many more issues.
- Realise how they have
been disconnecting from family and friends and proceed to begin
rebuilding links, amongst many other issues she is now actively
addressing after reading.
- Sort out whether or not
she is experiencing PTS finally. It has been virtually impossible to
determine from the limited ability to express herself in the 3 sessions
prior.
- Relate and gain hope that
there is light at the end of the tunnel, even though her reactions to
similar life threatening incidents, are only just beginning and life is
still falling apart.
- Recognise and talk about
her own limited affect, restricted ability to be demonstrative.
"Your book is
fantastic. I am so impressed. The feedback so far from my clients has
been that it has been extremely helpful. One has even photocopied parts
and given it to family and friends to educate them as to how to support
her following a recent assault. As I think my original copy might be
more often on loan than not, I would like to buy a second copy for
myself. I even wondered if I may hold a supply that I could make
available to clients to buy". Maggie
