Helping Clients Move Forward from Developmental Trauma--An Integrative Somatic Approach

De: Kathy L. Kain, Stephen J. Terrell, Peter A. Levine - introduction Ph.D.

Narrado por: Beth Kesler

A practical, integrated approach for therapists working with child and adult patients impacted by developmental trauma and attachment difficulties—featuring a foreword by Waking the Tiger author, Peter Levine.

Kathy L. Kain and Stephen J. Terrell draw on fifty years of their combined clinical and teaching experience to provide this clear road map for understanding the complexities of early trauma and its related symptoms. Experts in the physiology of trauma, the authors present an introduction to their innovative somatic approach that has evolved to help thousands improve their lives.

Synthesizing across disciplines—Attachment, Polyvagal, Neuroscience, Child Development Theory, Trauma, and Somatics—this book provides a new lens through which to understand safety and regulation. It includes the survey used in the groundbreaking ACE Study, which discovered a clear connection between early childhood trauma and chronic health problems.

For therapists working with both adults, children, and anyone dealing with symptoms that typically arise from early childhood trauma—anxiety, behavioral issues, depression, metabolic disorders, migraine, sleep problems, and more—this book offers hope for a happier, trauma-free life.

Informative especially for professionals

Requires a deeper knowledge base. Very helpful. Worth the investment. Important for understanding newer research.

Annoying narrator

Narration feels unnatural. They try to give impression they understand the material, but it comes through that they don't. Content seems excellent.

Usable Overview

This book provides a useful overview of facets of trauma, while fleshing out concepts like "foundational trauma" and "somatic shame". This could be an excellent companion to van der Kolk's Body Keeps the Score.

Great content - so hard to listen to

The content of this book is wonderful and hopefully everyone can learn a little of it. It was wildly hard to get through as the voice is robotic and almost sounds like listening to a computer.

Great info, very technical

Loved the info very insightful, definitely geared towards therapists but the material is understandable. Would have loved for a pdf with the book but didn’t bring one.
