For the past decade, author Tian Dayton has been researching trauma and addiction, and how psychodrama (or sociometry group psychotherapy) can be used in their treatment. Since trauma responses are stored in the body, a method of therapy that engages the body through role play can be more effective in accessing the full complement of trauma-related memories. This latest book identifies the interconnection of trauma and addictive behavior, and shows why they can become an unending cycle. Emotional and psychological pain so often lead to self-medicating, which leads to more pain, and inevitably more self-medicating, and so on--ad infinitum. This groundbreaking book offers readers effective ways to work through their traumas in order to heal their addictions and their predilection toward what clinicians call self-medicating (the abuse of substances [alcohol, drugs, food], activities [work, sex, gambling, etc.] and/or possessions [money, material things].) Readers caught up in the endless cycle of trauma and addiction will permanently transform their lives by reading this book. Therapists treating patients for whom no other avenue of therapy has proved effective will find that this book offers practical, lasting solutions. Case studies and examples of this behavioral phenomenon will illustrate the connection, helping readers understand its dynamics, recognize their own situations and realize that they are not alone in experiencing this syndrome. The author deftly combines the longstanding trauma theories of Van der Kolk, Herman, Bowlby, Krystal and others with her own experiential methods using psychodrama, sociometry and group therapy in the treatment of addiction and posttraumatic stress disorder. While designed to be useful to therapists, this book will also be accessible to trade readers. It includes comprehensive references, as well as a complete index.

Now the authors of the bestselling After the Tears offer further insight into the origin and cost of childhood pain for those who grew up in alcoholic families. In this revised and expanded edition, Jane Middelton-Moz and Lorie Dwinell combine their years of experience in working with ACoAs, tackling issues such as intimacy, sibling relationships, codependency, breaking the alcoholic pattern, building a relationship with the inner child, forgiveness, and opening a window to spirituality.

Growing up in a home where there is addiction or relationship trauma puts a child at great risk for long-term, post-traumatic stress effects that adversely compromise adult relationships.

Through Dr. Dayton's insightful analysis and thoughtful examination, Adult Children of Alcoholics will learn how and why the pain they experienced in childhood plays out in the

Recovering from Trauma Workbook is a guided journey through the tangled and often confusing emotional and psychological residue of trauma. It is not a substitute for therapy, but is designed to be used as a self help tool or as a part of a treatment program. Out greatest journey is the journey within, the voyage of self discovery. Getting to know what makes us tick is part of becoming more of who we are, working with and letting go of pain lightens the spirit and allows us to live more fully in the present. Trauma is all about leaving the moment because what's happening in that moment is overwhelming or frightening to us. Healing is all about becoming more present and mindful of the now. Integrating up-to-date research into creative personal processes, Recovering from Trauma Workbook helps the user to wrap their mind around the issues involved in trauma and provides journaling exercises, self tests and creative processes that allow the inner being to find a voice so that what is held in silence can come forward and be felt, translated into words and expressed. It teaches the skills of emotional literacy and develops emotional intelligence and regulation. Recovering from Trauma Workbook can be used by: · Adult children of alcoholics (ACoAs)· Anyone who grew up with childhood trauma or adverse childhood experiences (ACEs)· Recovering addicts/substance abusers· Recovering sex, food or work addicts· As the accompanying journaling book for treatment centers that are using Dr. Dayton's model for Relational Trauma Repair (RTR)· As a part of the curriculum for treatment centers, sober living communities, self help or therapy groups· Trauma Survivors Recovering from Trauma Workbook can be used alongside the ACoA Trauma Syndrome and as a follow up for the Emotional Sobriety Workbook which is designed to be used with Emotional Sobriety, books and workbooks by Tian Dayton PhD. RTR Guided Imageries can also be an accompaniment to the workbook offering soothing guided meditations for working through and regulating emotion. "Journaling helps us to sort through, process, and make sense of our hidden, feelings and impressions so we can better understand the workings of our inner worlds. As we write, emotions come pouring forth onto the page. Sense impressions, the way a scene looked, smelled, or felt, begin to emerge out of the haze of yesterday and take shape in front of our adult eyes of today. Feelings struggle to the surface of our minds and become "held" on the page; through words, these emotions can pour out and weave themselves into a coherent picture, a picture of us, familiar but still new. We begin to shake off old emotions, beliefs, and identities and experience a strengthened and more coherent sense of self.'

Trauma has been defined as an interruption of an affiliative or relationship bond. If left unsettled, past grief and psychological trauma can continue to impact our adult relationships and cause us pain in our entire lives. It's possible we may not even realize what is happening to us because usually relationships fail in parts rather than in total. Early childhood losses or traumas can create pain that is relived in adult intimate relationships. Intimacy can provide both an arena for re-enacting old pain and/or healing it. In this fascinating work, noted psychodramatist Tian Dayton shows readers how relationships can be used as a vehicle for healing, personal growth and spiritual transformation. Through fascinating case studies and probing exercises, Dayton helps readers get in touch with the deepest parts of themselves and heal the wounds that plague them.

This new edition of Perfect Daughters, a pivotal book in the ACoA movement, identifies what differentiates the adult daughters of alcoholics from other women. When this groundbreaking book first appeared over ten years ago, Dr. Ackerman identified behavior patterns shared by daughters of alcoholics. Adult daughters of alcoholics-"perfect daughters" -operate from a base of harsh and limiting views of themselves and the world. Having learned that they must function perfectly in order to avoid unpleasant situations, these women often assume responsibility for the failures of others. They are drawn to chemically dependent men and are more likely to become addicted themselves. More than just a text that identifies these behavior patterns, this book collects the thoughts, feelings and experiences of twelve hundred perfect daughters, offering readers an opportunity to explore their own life's dynamics and thereby heal and grow. This edition contains updated information throughout the text, and completely new material, including chapters on eating disorders and abuse letters from perfect daughters in various stages of recovery, and helpful, affirming suggestions from Dr. Ackerman at the end of every chapter. This book is essential for every one who found validation, hope, courage and support in the pages of the original Perfect Daughters, as well as new readers and every therapist who confronts these issues. Also includes: a comprehensive reference section and complete index.
