What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing by Bruce D. Perry, Oprah Winfrey

challenging emotional informative slow-paced

4.0

I know many reviewers disliked the format of the book, but I really enjoyed the conversation between Dr. Perry and Oprah, especially in the audiobook. I'm not sure I had any "aha" moments, but more like validation and confirmation moments. Many complained, but the bottom line is that healing is not a one-time thing and no one book will have all the answers. I guess if I did learn one thing from this book is that healing moments don't have to come in one-hour increments in the office of a mental health professional. It comes in small steps, over a long period of time, maybe even a lifetime. But healing IS possible.
