I have no doubt that this is going to make such a difference to so many.

For years I have been looking for something that fits. Children like Taya often get lost or fall through the radar, or once again are made to be invisible. I am already seeing the benefits of putting some of the ideas and tools into practice. So thank you.

I had so many lightbulb moments while reading this. It’s a book that I will return to over and over again.

I wish I had this workbook sooner. Thank you for shining a spotlight on those kids who are so often missed. I hope this is read far and wide as it is so needed. I especially like how it takes something like dissociation which is misunderstood and demystified it and made it understandable.

Caring for kids who have their walls up and are in their shells is hard. It is painful. It is frustrating. This workbook touched my heart as it has helped me to take a step back and to focus on the connection, and to understand why it can be so hard. There are so many books out there that are academic, but this is properly practical and gets it.
