Work you can do on your own

One structured route, not a reading list. Choice paralysis is real, and a long list signals that nobody has made a judgement.

The Adverse Childhood Experiences Recovery Workbook

Dr Glenn Schiraldi — founding Dean, UMCP Trauma Institute

A structured route through the long-term effects of childhood trauma that a person can genuinely walk alone — and which also helps them work out whether they need more support. That dual function is why it is the anchor here.

Three things to say plainly

A workbook is a companion, not a substitute for therapy where therapy is needed. Stopping is allowed, and stopping is not failure. And at least one route here is free — a page that only works if you can spend forty dollars excludes many of the people it was written for.
