“As creator of the Core Language® Approach, I’ve spent the last 20 years observing how language and trauma intersect—how patients’ presenting symptoms, specifically the language they use, can lead us to the root of the issue, often to a trauma in the family history or in early childhood. Uncovering our core language can free us from reliving traumas that don’t belong to us.”

Reviews

[Lulu · Rating 3 out of 5]

I only read 'It Didn't Start With You'. It does have lot of good insight. Help understand how to recognize stressor and how to address them. However lot of it feels like supernatural book. Could not resonate with it. Often found myself shaking my head. Still not sure if I agree with lot of the content.
