I’ve gone from being smashed about by huge waves to having a surfboard on which I can ride at least some of them, and even if I fall off into it, I know it won’t last forever. Your understanding of emotional flashbacks has made an enormous difference in my life. I want to thank you so much for all the help you have given me (and all the people I’ve passed your website link onto since finding out about it). It helped me so much just to know that you live in that area-strange when I haven’t even met you! Your website and book are invaluable to me.

It’s as if you had unzipped me, stepped inside my traumatized inner self, meandered around a bit, come back outside, and wrote about what you discovered inside of me.
