Inhaltsangabe

A gentle, validating, and insightful guide to reparenting your wounded inner child and finding peace, healing, and wholeness as an adult.

If you experienced trauma as a child—including physical, sexual, or emotional abuse; neglect; household dysfunction; or toxic stress—you may struggle with anxiety, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) as an adult. Early childhood trauma can cause lasting effects, keeping you feeling stuck, lost, and unable to move forward. But you can heal the pain of the past and reclaim well-being in the present.

If you’re struggling with unresolved childhood trauma, reconnecting with your vulnerable inner child can unlock profound healing and set the stage for profound personal growth. Written by an expert in childhood trauma, this gentle guide presents an integrative approach that merges inner child work with self-compassion techniques to help you “reparent” the wounded aspects of yourself that were lost, frozen in time, or traumatized—so you can start moving toward the life you were meant to live.

This compassionate guide will help you:

• Identify past trauma—and heal from its effects
• Recognize how trauma responses can manifest in your daily life
• Establish a connection with your wounded inner child
• Understand your childhood needs through a new lens
• Explore the impacts of abusive, authoritarian, passive, and neglectful parenting
• Create a “reparenting plan” to address your unmet needs

 

In your journey toward healing, this gentle guide can serve as a beacon of hope and resilience. By gaining a better understanding of your childhood trauma and the transformative power of reparenting, you’ll be empowered to rewrite the narrative of your past and step into a future guided by self-compassion and inner strength.
