The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk

challenging informative reflective medium-paced

3.0

as a therapist using this to think about interventions and psycho education. however i dont think this should be recommended to clients to read like many of my colleagues do. i dont think its aimed at them nor would be read in the same light. it actually may be triggering and give answers without the means to receive them. very interesting in parts, self indulgent in others and overall a little too long and faffy. but useful to see how far trauma research and intervention has come and where it still has to go
