These are foundational directives for healing. Insightful, articulate, and well presented it deserves a place in all our educational, health and creative institutions. Increasingly relevant today.

I read this for one of my classes and it was really an excellent description of how to work with people from a trauma informed perspective. Sandra Bloom is extremely passionate about this subject and her talks on trauma are all very informative as well.

Everyone who ever works with people should read this book. Seriously.

Very, very good book. It gives so much education in a way that's very easy to understand, as well as practical considerations for in-patient treatment. That's something I really liked. Now I need to get my hands on the updated version. If anyone wants to buy them for me, they're on my Amazon wishlist. (But, seriously, don't feel pressured because they're fucking expensive. IGNORE MY PLEA BECAUSE I HAVE FAMILY WHO CAN BUY THEM FOR ME.)
