Summary

This workbook for survivors of trauma emphasizes strategies for coping in the present and does not ask readers to dwell on the traumatic experience itself. Brief vignettes are noted with a symbol so that readers can skip them if they are too distressing. Readers will find strategies for self-care focusing on five basic psychological needs: safety, trust, control, self esteem, and intimacy. Worksheet pages provide space for responding to questionnaires and exercises. Scripts for relaxation and visualization exercises are also included. This second edition contains a new section on managing emotions through mindfulness, and a new appendix on taking care of yourself in healthcare settings
