I’ve read several books on addiction, trauma etc.. I am a therapist with a specialty in trauma and this book is by far the best I’ve read. An excellent and easy to understand read for professionals and laypersons. This book also explains how growing up in dysfunctional homes leads to low self-esteem, shame, anger, relationship issues, etc… which has been said 1,000 times, but her presentation is inspiring, fresh and very beneficial. This book is deep yet practical, which is extremely rare in books of this nature. Highly recommended!!!!
