"Trauma is a fact of life. It does not, however, have to to be a life sentence."

Why I Started This Community & Am Writing My Book (launching 8/1/25)
Author Patricia A. Grenelle, PsyD
For too long, childhood trauma has remained in the shadows—misunderstood, minimized, and masked. But its effects don’t disappear with time. They echo through our relationships, our health, our sense of self.
There is hope through understanding the effects of complex trauma. There is no reason for you to maneuver through life feeling controlled, gaslighted, lied to, or like a bad situation is your fault. This community is here to help you get started.
In We Were A Nice, Normal Family (my upcoming book), I share my personal journey through trauma and recovery to help others feel less alone—and more empowered. This story is for anyone who's ever questioned their worth, felt gaslighted, or wondered why life feels harder than it should. There is a reason. And there is a way forward.

"I have come to the conclusion that human beings are born with an innate capacity to triumph over trauma. I believe not only that trauma is curable, but that the healing process can be a catalyst for profound awakening - a portal opening to emotional and genuine spiritual transformation."
