Resumen del Editor

When your parents are pathologically self-centered, manipulative, or emotionally abusive, the pain they cause is deep and often difficult to put into words. You may experience anxiety, depression, complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD), low self-esteem, addiction, or other mental health conditions as an adult. But it was not your fault, and there are tools you can use to heal the trauma caused by your childhood.

This compassionate guide will help you gain a greater understanding of what happened in your past; transform deep pain into emotional resilience; and build the loving, meaningful relationship with yourself that you deserve. You'll also learn to set boundaries with others, assert your needs, and overcome emotional avoidance to develop warm, loving relationships with others.

Author Sherrie Campbell offers powerful skills drawn from a range of evidence-based treatments, including mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), self-compassion, lived experience, and body-based practices to help you heal from the past and reconnect with your authentic self.

Let this book guide you on the path to healing, wholeness, and self-discovery.

She’s been there! Read if you want real knowledge!

I am so grateful to have read Dr. Sherrie‘s book. She speaks with experience and it shows. It’s so nice to receive guidance from someone who is extremely knowledgeable, who can relate to your experience. She is a beautiful writer and great at teaching, not just what happened, but what to do about it. Thank you, Dr. Sherrie!

Powerhouse and Truth-Teller

Dr Sherrie is doing something so taboo and so needed in our culture: telling the ugly truth. This book is a deep-dive into the reality of toxic parents, families, and legacies that can be rewritten and healed.

incredible insight

I wish I had this book 50 years ago, I come from an emotional abusive dysfunctional family, this book has validated my feelings, experiences etc.. it's the most freeing feeling to finally be honest with myself, we were always told to never speak of what went on in our house , it created an enormous amount of shame & guilt inside me, there were 6 children in this family and 3 of them took their own adult lives, the inner trauma that we endured was horrific, I made it out when I was 18 but never really left emotionally till I was 37, I finally had enough, I'm 68 now and I have spent decades working on loving myself, it's amazing how as an adult you invite people in your life that treat you the same way your parents did, but I have to say Dr Sherri Campbell is our voice & a brave soul, I am in awe of her research and i thank her so very much for writing this book!! this will help so many people to change their life, there is power in knowledge and there is power within us to change the narrative and start living the life we deserve and this book will definitely do that

Relatable

Easy to understand. Great examples given and the book give you ways to cope and heal from your toxic parents or toxic family members.
