In my practice I have come across a number of well-written books and resources that you may find helpful as you explore therapy. I have linked to a few of my favorite therapy books as well as several videos and websites on the topic of trauma that may help you provide perspective.

Please find the list below of hand-picked titles with topics about childhood trauma, dealing with past or recent trauma, moving forward in life, and EMDR therapy, which I practice and offer training consultations. If you have any therapy resources that you come across that you have enjoyed, feel free to share them with me.
