Oprah Winfrey teams up with longtime friend and collaborator, neuroscientist Dr Bruce Perry in this beautiful, moving and healing book about trauma therapy.
There are a number of questions we often ask each other but the most important question we can all ask, the one that will help lead to further compassion and understanding is 'What happened to you?'
That question was a lightbulb moment for Oprah who says that learning more about this question and the trauma-informed care from which it comes had, 'practically more impact on me than anything I have ever done.' She says, 'It is my hope that our story on trauma informed care will not just be impactful but will also be revolutionary. It certainly has caused a revolution in my own life.'
What Happened to You? is the driver of that revolution.
This beautifully illustrated book is written in an intensely readable conversational style between Oprah and Dr Perry, who bring their considerable experience and expertise to the fore in this helpful, informative and practical guide that offers much-needed insight on complex PTSD, trauma bonds and intense stress.
