Shaili Jain The Unspeakable Mind: Stories of Trauma and Healing from the Frontlines of PTSD Science
The Unspeakable Mind is the definitive guide for a trauma-burdened age. With profound empathy and meticulous research, Shaili Jain, M.D.—a practicing psychiatrist and PTSD specialist at one of America’s top VA hospitals, trauma scientist at the National Center for PTSD, and a Stanford Professor—shines a long-overdue light on the PTSD epidemic affecting today’s fractured world. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder goes far beyond the horrors of war and is an inescapable part of all our lives. At any given moment, more than six million Americans are suffering with PTSD. Dr. Jain’s groundbreaking work demonstrates the ways this disorder cuts to the heart of life, interfering with one’s capacity to love, create, and work—incapacity brought on by a complex interplay between biology, genetics, and environment. Beyond the struggles of individuals, PTSD has a tangible imprint on our cultures and societies around the world. Since 9/11 and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, there has been a huge growth in the science of PTSD, a body of evidence that continues to grow exponentially. With this new knowledge have come dramatic advances in the effective treatment of this condition. Jain draws on a decade of her own clinical innovation and research and argues for a paradigm shift in how PTSD should be approached in the new millennium. She highlights the myriads of ways PTSD care is being transformed to make it more accessible, acceptable, and available to sufferers via integrated care models, use of peer support programs, and technology. By identifying those among us who are most vulnerable to developing PTSD, cutting edge medical interventions that hold the promise of preventing the onset of PTSD are becoming more of a reality than ever before. Combining vividly recounted patient stories, interviews with some of the world’s top trauma scientists, and her professional expertise from working on the frontlines of PTSD, The Unspeakable Mind offers a textured portrait of this invisible illness that is unrivaled in scope and lays bare PTSD's roots, inner workings, and paths to healing. This book is essential reading for understanding how humans can recover from unspeakable trauma. The Unspeakable Mind stands as the definitive guide to PTSD and offers lasting hope to sufferers, their loved ones, and health care providers everywhere.

Meg Arroll Tiny Traumas: When You Don’t Know What’s Wrong, but Nothing Feels Quite Right
Psychologist Dr. Meg Arroll offers a much-needed framework for recognizing and combatting the devastating cumulative effects of small everyday wounds—“tiny traumas”—that, like major traumas, can negatively shape our lives. Have you ever felt at a loss for an answer when asked: ‘How are you really feeling?” Maybe you can’t quite put your finger on it, but you know something is definitely off. Microaggressions, challenging family relationships, toxic positivity, work and pandemic stress, gaslighting—these are just a few examples of what psychologist Dr. Meg Arroll calls “Tiny T” trauma. These tiny traumas can slowly build up inside of us, and if ignored for too long, can manifest in our lives as high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism, binge eating, insomnia, broken relationships, and a host of other problems. While advice on healing from major trauma is plentiful, there is little guidance available to help us recover from these “smaller” yet emotionally devastating traumas that are common to all of us. Now, Dr. Meg fills that gap and helps us find peace with this revolutionary guide. In Tiny Traumas, Dr. Meg introduces her three-step AAA approach that allows us to start understanding and healing from these tiny traumas: Awareness: discover your unique constellation of tiny traumas Acceptance: see how these tiny traumas show up in your life and start processing them Action: start taking the steps to actively create the life you desire Tiny Traumas teaches readers how to recognize and address past experiences so we can overcome the lasting pain and detrimental effects and truly start living the happier, more peaceful lives we deserve.

Trauma and Memory
Brain and Body in a Search for the Living Past: A Practical Guide for Understanding and Working with Traumatic Memory Building on his 45 years of successful treatment of trauma and utilizing case studies from his own practice, Dr. Levine suggests that although memory can be trusted, he argues that the only truly useful memories are those that might initially seem to be the least reliable: memories stored in the body and not necessarily accessible by our conscious mind. While much work has been done in the field of trauma studies to address "explicit" traumatic memories in the brain (such as intrusive thoughts or flashbacks), much less attention has been paid to how the body itself stores "implicit" memory, and how much of what we think of as "memory" actually comes to us through our (often unconsciously accessed) felt sense.

Jamie Marich, Stephen Dansiger Trauma and the 12 Steps - The Workbook, Revised and Expanded Edition: Exercises and Meditations for Addiction, Trauma Recovery, and Working the 12 Steps
An Inclusive Guide to Enhancing Recovery This trauma-informed approach is for clinicians, therapists, sponsors, and those in recovery. The 12-step programs like AA and NA help countless people recover. Still, many feel 12-step programs have a narrow focus and are lacking in many ways. The label alone eclipses traumatic histories and experiences that feed addiction, some dismissive of adverse experiences like trauma in the first place. Advances in addiction medicine, social theory, trauma, neuropsychiatry, and inclusivity need to be integrated into 12-step programs to reflect the latest research and what it means to live with an addiction today. Dr. Marich is an addiction and trauma clinician in recovery herself. She builds bridges between the 12-step's core foundations and up-to-date developments in trauma-informed care. Her approach treats the whole person, not just addiction, and fosters profound healing, growth, and transformation.This trauma-informed skills toolkit explores how trauma impacts addiction, recovery, and relapse, and offers inclusion for atheist, agnostic, and LGBTQ+ communities. There are huge differences between being trauma-informed and trauma-sensitive. The book also addresses traumatic, spiritual abuse and how current spirituality-based approaches to healing create a profound impediment to recovery. This is a landmark, enlightening, and helpful book for all readers.

Pat Ogden, Kekuni Minton, Clare Pain Trauma and the Body: A Sensorimotor Approach to Psychotherapy
The premise of this book is that, by adding body-oriented interventions to their repertoire, traditionally trained therapists can increase the depth and efficacy of their clinical work. Sensorimotor psychotherapy is an approach that builds on traditional psychotherapeutic understanding but includes the body as central in the therapeutic field of awareness, using observational skills, theories, and interventions not usually practiced in psychodynamic psychotherapy. By synthesizing bottom-up and top down interventions, the authors combine the best of both worlds to help chronically traumatized clients find resolution and meaning in their lives and develop a new, somatically integrated sense of self.
