Re-Write; A Trauma Workbook of Creative Writing and Recovery in Our New Normal 1st Edition

Re-Write offers practical strategies grounded in evidence-based methods and psychological theory, all within a human-centered design framework.

Previously, trauma-informed care was largely defined by cognitive behavioral therapy and medication management. Today, however, both patients and clinicians are increasingly seeking more holistic, somatic, and attachment theory-based approaches to healing, such as somatic psychology and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to reframe the trauma narrative.

The pandemic has dramatically altered our sense of stability, community, and the political and economic landscape. This upheaval has heightened stress levels, resulting in multifactorial trauma responses that affect individuals across all nations, ages, and socioeconomic statuses.

Re-Write is dedicated to guiding trauma survivors through their healing journey with simple, effective techniques designed for long-lasting impact. Readers are encouraged to explore the workbook in any order, experiment with different modalities, and discover the methods that best suit their needs.

In this book, readers will find:

• A range of exercises for trauma-healing methods
• Writing prompts that foster processing and healing
• Everyday coping mechanisms
• Customizable soothing techniques
