Forward-facing(r) trauma therapy - second edition: healing the moral wound - j. eric gentry

I highly recommend this book to psychotherapists working with PTSD and other trauma-related presenting problems.

Gentrys book has the potential to substantially increase the effectiveness of psychotherapy for the traumatized with a one-two punch: (1) Direct exposure to the root of the traumatic memories paired with (2) resilience-building self-care practices that promote principle-based living.

In contrast to therapist-centered treatments, Forward-Facing Trauma Therapy helps to resolve PTSD symptoms with a client-guided approach that focuses on current and future challenges while rapidly optimizing the clients quality of life.

Eric Gentry brings an invaluable new perspective on treating traumatic stress and compassion fatigue that is firmly grounded in the latest brain science.

In Forward-Facing Trauma Therapy, he makes a compelling case that stress reduction and symptom alleviation are only the first steps in the healing process and that our ultimate goal must be to help our clients achieve a congruent life based on integrity and choice.

Whether youre a counseling professional or simply looking to derive more meaning and satisfaction from your life, you will find much to value in Gentrys informative and thought-provoking book.
