Book by Frank G. Anderson

Transcending Trauma

Healing Complex PTSD with Internal Family Systems Therapy

Hope and light are on the horizon to help clients overcome the challenges of healing and releasing the pain of relational trauma.
The highly acclaimed Transcending Trauma explores a unique, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to resolving complex and dissociative trauma. In this transformative book Frank Anderson, MD, masterfully details an IFS path to therapy that allows clients to access their inherent capacity for healing – called Self-energy – while also helping them welcome, as opposed to manage, the extreme emotions frequently associated with trauma.

Included are clinical case examples, summary charts, current neuroscience research, and personal stories that will enable your clients to reclaim self-connection, experience self-love, and regain the ability to connect with and love others. Designed with clinicians in mind, this book offers a comprehensive map to complex trauma treatment that will enable readers to:

  • Learn how to stay calm and steady in the presence of extreme symptoms
  • Discover a different approach to resolving attachment trauma
  • Gain confidence when addressing shame, neglect, and dissociation
  • Understand the neurobiology of PTSD and dissociation
  • Integrate neuroscience-informed therapeutic interventions
  • Effectively address medication and common comorbidities
  • Incorporate IFS with other models of treatment

Reviews
A crucial contribution that brings clarity and light to the often dark, confusing journey of treating complex PTSD.
Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, founder of Internal Family Systems (IFS)
For me, and most of my close colleagues, Internal Family Systems therapy is the fundamental psychotherapeutic approach that we use to help most of our adult patients who deal with the legacy of trauma. It is therefore a gift to all of us that Frank Anderson has written such a lucid, engaging, and comprehensive book that can help us navigate the complicated journey of resolving relational trauma. With the help of exquisite personal anecdotes, Anderson explains the deeper origins of apparently irrational and self-destructive behaviors that people have developed to deal with overwhelming realities. Most of all, he describes how to guide people in reclaiming “self-leadership” and taking back ownership of their lives. This is a wonderful book that should be read by anyone who wants to lay down the burdens of past trauma and those who seek to accompany them on this journey.
Bessel A. van der Kolk, MD Author of "New York Times" bestselling "The Body Keeps the Score"
In "Transcending Trauma", Frank Anderson offers a methodical, clear, and highly instructive pathway to healing complex trauma through IFS, an astute therapeutic approach that is logically presented and generously illustrated with case examples and enriched by personal insights.
