Dr. Janina Fisher, international expert on trauma, has spent over 40 years helping survivors navigate the healing journey. She has found that to transform traumatic experiences, survivors need to understand their symptoms and reactions as normal responses to abnormal events. They need ways to work with the symptoms that intrude on their daily activities, preventing a life beyond trauma. In Transforming the Living Legacy of Trauma, she shows how the legacy of symptoms helped them survive and offers: Step-by-step strategies that can be used on their own or in collaboration with a therapist, simple diagrams that make sense of survivors' confusing feelings and physical reactions, and worksheets to practice the skills that bring relief and ultimately healing.
