As a therapist, Gretchen Schmelzer has watched far too many people
quit during treatment for trauma recovery. They find it too
difficult or frightening, or they decide that it's just too late
for them. Schmelzer wrote Journey Through Trauma specifically for
survivors to help them understand the terrain of the healing
process and stay on the path. She begins by laying out three
important assumptions that support a survivor's healing: that it is
possible, that it requires courage and that it cannot be done
alone. Traumas that happen more than once - child abuse, sexual
abuse, domestic violence, gang violence, war - are all relational
traumas. They are traumas that happen inside a relationship and
therefore must be healed inside a relationship, whether that
relationship is with a therapist or within a group. She then guides
readers through the five phases that every survivor must negotiate:
Preparation, Unintegration, Identification, Integration and
Consolidation. She creates a mental map of the healing process that
helps survivors recognize where they are in their journey to
health, see where the hard parts occur and persevere in the process
of getting well. Since the cycle of healing repeated trauma is not
linear, the survivor comes to understand that circling back around
to a previous stage actually means progress as well as facing new
challenges. Ultimately, the healing journey is one of trust, as
survivors come to trust their capacity to rely on help from others
and to trust themselves and the work they have done.
