If you've experienced trauma, your nervous system may be stuck in "fight-or-flight" mode—leading to symptoms such as hypervigilance, extreme anxiety, and distrust of others.

This compassionate guide offers a breakthrough approach to bring your mind and body back into balance.

Here's the truth of the matter. If that’s where you are at this moment, you’re not alone. I was in your shoes. I felt those things. I worried about the same exact things. The words "gaslighting" and “emotional abuse” weren’t in my vocabulary back then. I was young and in my first “real” relationship. I didn't have the language or the relationship experience to describe how I was slowly losing trust in my perceptions or how my confidence was eroding one heartbreak at a time. I didn’t recognize the manipulation. His yo-yo treatment was commonplace.

‘The Grip of Childhood Sexual Abuse’ tells the story of our healing journey to overcome the impacts of our abuse. Tragically victims unknowingly accrue many syndromes and disorders as a direct result of enduring sexual abuse over a long period of time.

Through recognizing our own strengths, we can encourage others to shed the self-limiting beliefs trauma survivors often unconsciously own.

It’s in the friendly coworker who makes you feel guilty for saying no, the partner who keeps shifting the rules, the relative who plays the victim to get their way, and the salesperson who creates false urgency to push you into a decision. Most people don’t see it happening until it’s too late. By then, they’ve already given away their time, their trust, their resources—or their power.
