Written by an experienced counselor of adults suffering from the PTSD typical of those raised in dysfunctional families, Healing the Wounds of Childhood describes the six-stage process of recovery for survivors from multiple kinds of childhood trauma. It serves as a practical guide for adult children of dysfunctional families who choose to confront and constructively deal with the pain of the past. Drawing from case studies, 12-Step Program and rehabilitation literature, as well as from his own personal experiences, author Dennis McGuire illustrates the common pitfalls and routine disappointments, as well as the positive small victories and meaningful self-discoveries, that take place at each stage of recovery as part of a process that leads to full healing within.
