Green Glitter Girl: A Journey of Hope and Trauma Recovery

"More than a memoir-it is a testament to the power of the human nervous system to adapt, survive, and ultimately heal." -From the Foreword by Stephen Porges, PhD

Born to severely depressed parents, a little girl unknowingly watched as her younger sister lay dying. Her death sets off a series of traumatic events, including abuse, neglect, and medical emergencies, spanning from age three to adulthood.

Green Glitter Girl is a personal story rooted in transformation from the devastating effects of generational trauma. It gives voice to readers seeking their own paths to healing.

Written by a therapist and an energy healer, this book offers a blend of psychological insight and spiritual inspiration. It serves as a reminder of the light we all have within, and the ability of body, mind, and spirit to support our healing, even through the darkest times.
