It is not a replacement for professional psychotherapy, but would likely enhance progress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn my 39-year social work career, I learned that children who were robbed of their childhoods through abuse or trauma, often spend a lifetime being revictimized at the hands of others or through their own actions, thoughts and\/or addictions. They frequently live their lives having little or no control of their destiny because they continue to feel powerless over life and the people in it. Or, on the other end of the spectrum, adult survivors, are over achievers, workaholics and self-sacrificial.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFew enjoy quality intimate relationships, due to guardedness, insecurities, or emotional extremes due underdeveloped emotional expression skills. The painful memories of their childhoods consume their energies and resources in the vicious cycle of trying to escape these recollections.This is a book that offers hope to its readers by acknowledging their wounds and providing a compass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15730440\"\u003eSophie Serna\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Writers Republic LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 56\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.15d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798885368353\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8885368352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Writers Republic LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563991003373,"sku":"9798885368353","price":15.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_12150109-00b8-4a41-a171-1056a45a889d.jpg?v=1701848054","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/healing-verses-a-journey-towards-empowerment-9798885368353","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
