Press Release Summary: A ToolKit for Healing focuses on both the cognitive aspects
and the somatic aspects of healing. A ToolKit for Healing is available in Ebook
format through http://www.ToolKitForHealing.com

Press Release Body: A ToolKit for Healing, written by Noreen Wedman, M.S., offers a
comprehensive approach to healing from abuse. Instead of focusing just on particular
instances of conflict and abuse, A ToolKit for Healing maintains the value of
multiple points of intervention. A ToolKit for Healing focuses on both the cognitive
aspects and the somatic aspects of healing.

Ms. Wedman has had a few people say to her, "Everyone experiences abuse." This
attitude trivializes the traumatic effects of living with a verbally abusive person
for years and the developmental consequences for people who were raised with a
verbally abusive caregiver. In a study headed by led by Martin Teicher, M.D., Ph.D.,
verbal abuse in childhood was linked to depression and Dissociative symptoms second
only to incest. The link to Dissociative symptoms was shockingly strong when verbal
abuse was combined with witnessing domestic violence.

A ToolKit is part informational and part workbook because although it is great to
present useful ideas, it is even better to put them in a context where people can
put them into practice and become a habit. Ms. Wedman wrote A ToolKit for Healing
especially for people whose incomes do not allow them to attend weekly therapy
sessions. A ToolKit for Healing was also written to help the people who could afford
therapy optimize their therapy process.
