Publisher's summary

Hope and light are on the horizon to help clients overcome the challenges of healing and releasing the pain of relational trauma.

The highly acclaimed Transcending Trauma explores a unique, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to resolving complex and dissociative trauma. In this transformative audiobook, Frank Anderson, MD, masterfully details an IFS path to therapy that allows clients to access their inherent capacity for healing — called self-energy — while also helping them welcome, as opposed to manage, the extreme emotions frequently associated with trauma.

Included are clinical case examples, summaries, current neuroscience research, and personal stories that will enable your clients to reclaim self-connection, experience self-love, and regain the ability to connect with and love others.

Designed with clinicians in mind, this audiobook offers a comprehensive map to complex trauma treatment that will enable listeners to:

• Learn how to stay calm and steady in the presence of extreme symptoms
• Discover a different approach to resolving attachment trauma
• Gain confidence when addressing shame, neglect, and dissociation
• Understand the neurobiology of PTSD and dissociation
• Integrate neuroscience-informed therapeutic interventions
• Effectively address medications and common comorbidities
• Incorporate IFS with other models of treatment

Produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Excellent introduction to IFS Trauma Therapy

This book was clearly written for the therapist practicing IFS but as a client undergoing IFS therapy and interested in the underlying concepts to get to healing, I found this book incredibly interesting and insightful.

Essential Reading for IFS Therapists

This book has added so much clarity to the IFS process. For anyone feeling stuck, unsure, or insecure about their work this covers so many nuances and stumbling blocks. It offers many elaborations and adjustments to make IFS applicable to any client.

Highly Recommend

From one trauma therapist to the next, this book is fantastic! One that could be read more than once!

Designed for Therapists great to learn from

Great book. I learned alot. It's designed for professionals but is also great for lay people.

A must read for anyone who intends to navigate trauma.

This book did an incredible job of covering the landscape of trauma from a neurophysiological perspective and from a psychological perspective. It can help you navigate your own trauma therapy with more self directed discovery and help to understand where a therapist can be of great service to your healing journey.

Best trauma book you’ll ever get

Detailed, warm, helpful & inspiring for therapists and survivors alike. It does activate parts so take it slowly!

A new and impressive frontier of psychology

Best book about trauma and how it affects the soul and being. This book taught me so much and has given me the courage to seek out therapy and an IFS-aware therapist. So grateful for this book. Will definitely need to buy a hard copy.

Must Read Book

Frank Anderson poured his heart and soul into this book. He had a passion for IFS that shows up in each chapter! He added things he learned on his own journey and this makes it a must read book!

Great book; I didn’t receive the PDF

I didn’t receive the accompanying PDF into my library. The book itself is great. I would give 5 stars, otherwise.

Excellent

Great book for those who want to become IFS practitioners and provide guided healing to trauma patients.
