What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma by Stephanie Foo

emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

Reading What My Bones Know as a therapist whose main specialties are developmental trauma and attachment was difficult and infuriating at times. I often take for granted how much easier it is to access mental health care in my state versus others across the country. Attunement is the most essential element in the client-therapist relationship to foster healing, so I get really upset when therapists forget this! Stephanie Foo was so vulnerable, insightful, and authentic in this beautiful, beautiful memoir!

Just a small clarification from the text - psychologists do not necessarily have more training than LCSWs and LPCCs. Psychologists have more training in psychological testing to determine diagnoses, but not in providing actual therapy.
