Retrain the Brain
“Ms. Shantelle, why can’t I just be good?”
This was a question from a 10-year old client who couldn’t understand why he continued to be highly impulsive and aggressive, despite years of therapy. His desperate desire to understand himself better led me on a quest to learn more about the nature of trauma and its impact on children.
This book was created as a response to this young boy’s question. It has helped him and countless other children recognize how trauma affects their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
