Saving your children, family, and loved ones from inter-generational post-traumatic stress (PTS)…

My Journey of Healing in Life after Trauma, Part 2, will be released on Friday August 14, 2015.  The non-fiction narrative represents 4 years of outreach and research captured in my blog, Children and Families in Life after Trauma. Selected topics are organized in 8 chapters focused on trauma affected family circumstances and positive outcomes.

This 3^rd book release is about my personal journey of healing.  I write as a survivor of childhood and early adult trauma  growing up in a toxic military family torn apart by WWII and Korean War.  My blog, Children and Families in Life after Trauma provides rich content for this e-book.  The narrative carries the reader on a story of inspiration, passion, and discovery of the roots of trauma-affected children and provides strategies for parents, teachers, and loved ones to help mitigate the suffering.
