A Place at My Table: A Memoir of Recovery from CPTSD

By: Richardson, Kati Jade

Raw, unfiltered, and deeply human, this memoir unpacks the tangled reality of recovering from Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD). With unflinching, emotional honesty, the author exposes the hidden wounds and everyday battles that come with surviving prolonged trauma. This is not a simple story of healing. It's a relentless reckoning with the past where love and rage collide, and the path to self-acceptance is neither straight nor gentle. In these pages, the author lays bare the scars of childhood trauma, the complexity of motherhood, and the long, winding road to self-acceptance. The recovery is a messy, courageous act: panic and despair sit beside moments of hope and hard-won laughter. The complexities of CPTSD, shifting identities, fractured trust, and the desperate search for safety are rendered in vivid detail, pulling readers into the author's inner world.

For anyone who's ever felt broken by their own story or wondered if wholeness is possible after devastation, this memoir offers both a mirror and a lantern. It is a testament to surviving the unthinkable and to the raw, perfect beauty of forging a life beyond it, leaving you inspired, moved, and fiercely hopeful.
