Press Release Body: A ToolKit for Healing, written by Noreen Wedman, M.S., offers a comprehensive approach to healing from abuse. Instead of focusing just on particular instances of conflict and abuse, A ToolKit for Healing maintains the value of multiple points of intervention. A ToolKit for Healing focuses on both the cognitive aspects and the somatic aspects of healing.
Ms. Wedman has had a few people say to her, “Everyone experiences abuse.” This attitude trivializes the traumatic effects of living with a verbally abusive person for years and the developmental consequences for people who were raised with a verbally abusive caregiver. In a study headed by led by Martin Teicher, M.D., Ph.D., verbal abuse in childhood was linked to depression and Dissociative symptoms second only to incest. The link to Dissociative symptoms was shockingly strong when verbal abuse was combined with witnessing domestic violence.
A ToolKit is part informational and part workbook because although it is great to present useful ideas, it is even better to put them in a context where people can put them into practice and become a habit. Ms. Wedman wrote A ToolKit for Healing especially for people whose incomes do not allow them to attend weekly therapy sessions. A ToolKit for Healing was also written to help the people who could afford therapy optimize their therapy process.
