Healing the Fragmented Selves of Trauma Survivors: Overcoming Internal Self-Alienation

One part of you wants closeness. Another pulls away. Another criticizes both. That isn't a flaw in your character.

Janina Fisher is a trauma therapist who works with the idea that survivors often experience themselves as divided into parts, each holding a different survival response. Healing the Fragmented Selves of Trauma Survivors shows how to recognize those parts and relate to them with curiosity instead of shame.

The book is written for therapists and for survivors, and includes worksheets and exercises for practice.
