Trauma may seem like a daunting word, but it can cover many distressing events – from negative childhood experiences to the ordeal of living through a pandemic. It is often the source of our fears and anxieties, and it can affect the way we live our lives.
The Healing Workbook contains clear explanations, practical advice, and guided exercises based on trusted cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) techniques to help you begin the process of recovery from trauma. Within these pages, you will find support and encouragement as you begin to come to terms with the past and find your way back to yourself, your values and a life where you can flourish and thrive.
Use the workbook either on its own or alongside therapy to help you work through your trauma and find a sense of peace and healing.
Inside the book, you will find:
- A relaxed and supportive approach, allowing you to calmly complete the exercises at your own pace
- A hands-on attitude towards understanding your trauma, offering a wealth of tips and advice for working through your worries
- Clear and actionable advice on making lifestyle changes to support and improve your mental well-being
- Exercises grounded in research-supported CBT techniques
