The Bookshelf: Empowering Resources for Self-Understanding & Trauma Healing Books

This space gathers resources that help you understand, grow, and reconnect—with yourself. Our Bookshelf is curated reading suggestions for survivors, supporters, and anyone curious about trauma and healing. Each section highlights works that offer education, reflection, and hope—from foundational texts on the nervous system to memoirs, mindfulness practices, and tools for empowerment. Move through the suggestions at your own pace. Explore what calls to you, skip what doesn’t, and return whenever you’re ready for more. It’s about finding what helps you feel understood and supported on your healing path.
