Summary

Those affected by complex post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) commonly feel as though there is something fundamentally wrong with them - that somewhere inside there is a part of them that needs to be fixed. Though untrue, such beliefs can feel extremely real and frightening. Difficult as it may be, facing one’s PTSD from unresolved childhood trauma is a brave, courageous act, and with the right guidance, healing from PTSD is possible.

Clinical psychologist Dr. Arielle Schwartz has spent years helping those with complex PTSD - also referred to as C-PTSD - find their way to wholeness. She also knows the territory of the healing firsthand, having walked it herself.

This audiobook provides a map to the complicated, and often overwhelming, terrain of C-PTSD with Dr. Schwartz’s knowledgeable guidance helping you find your way.

In The Complex PTSD Workbook, you’ll learn all about C-PTSD and gain valuable insight into the types of symptoms associated with unresolved childhood trauma, while applying a strength-based perspective to integrate positive beliefs and behaviors.

Features of The Complex PTSD Workbook include:

  • Information about common PTSD misdiagnoses such as bipolar disorder, ADHD, anxiety disorders, major depressive disorder, and substance abuse, among others.
  • Explorations of common methods of PTSD therapy including somatic therapy, EMDR, CBT, DBT, and mind-body perspectives.
  • Chapter takeaways that encourage thoughtful consideration and writing to explore how you feel as you review the material presented in relation to your PTSD symptoms.

The Complex PTSD Workbook aims to empower you with a thorough understanding of the psychology and physiology of C-PTSD, so you can make informed choices about the path to healing that is right for you and discover a life of wellness free of C-PTSD that used to seem just out of reach.

Praise for the book:

"This book is a valuable resource for all those affected by complex PTSD, allowing them to be informed and active as partners in the therapeutic healing process.” (Jim Knipe, PhD, author of EMDR Toolbox: Theory and Treatment of Complex PTSD and Dissociation)

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

If you know, you know

I read this book for me and for a friend. I helped me enormously. It sensutively written and the case studies pertinent. Of course everyone's story is different. The narration is a bit robotic, but i think it is better that way; if it were warmer i think the book would become a bit more self therapy, and it's not that. Although reading this guide as i wait for therapy has helped me sleep, and to recignise how my friend and I can help and support each other. It is a scary area even looking for help is scary. This isn't so scary; challenging yes, but in a nice comfortable way.

WOW JUST WOW, it's as if you was describing me!!

OMG Did you write this bookable me?.
I'm a 47yr old woman who has carried this shame around with me for 40 yrs.
I've had counselling ect...they reallydidnt help much as I still feel ashamed as its controlled my life.
BUT NOT NO MORE.
thankyou so much for this book it has totally opened my eyes to a different view of the world.
Since listening to this book ( less than two weeks ago) I myself feel so much lighter...is that right?? yea I guess it is I feel lighter not bogged down with this cloud over my head.
I'd really like to thank Arielle Scwartz for publishing this book and for being truly outstanding in their field of work..
please notify me of any other books you release.

Unbearable

The content is excellent, a topic I’m very interested in. Maryann Sullivan is credited for the narration but this has to be a computer generated voice, it is awful and has ruined it entirely. The pacing is bizarre, an exercise or reflection is suggested yet there is not even a pause for breath, computers don’t breath I guess. Just awful.

Helpful book ruined by unthinking narration

This is a book that needs to be read with attention to the content and with a certain rhythm and pace. This narrator just runs through it like a recording machine, running on immediately when the sense needs a pause, etc etc.
