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 3rd 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.
