Overview

The Trauma Effect is a deeply moving and disturbing book that reveals in the most dramatic terms a family secret, a trauma, a tragedy that destroyed a family. This compelling and deeply poignant book exposes uncomfortable truths and traces a journey of recovery.  Trauma can leave an entire family with an inheritance of guilt, blame and shame, which can be absorbed unconsciously by descendants down the ages. This book shows how such learned trauma can be extinguished, so the next generation does not have to carry the burden of it too. The Trauma Effect highlights the urgent need to act, to grasp the skeleton, take it out of the closet and bury it once and for all. This expanded second edition contains new approaches to understanding the response to trauma, a more detailed self-help section at the end of the book and more revelations around the family secret.
