What if trauma was like a spell-one that doesn't break all at once, but unravels, layer by layer? Reframing Trauma is a personal, straight-talking resource for anyone living with the long shadow of trauma. James Buffin shares what it's really like to survive-and live with-the impact of childhood sexual assault, abuse, and loss. Through stories, reflections, and hard-earned insights, he speaks not as an expert, but as someone who's been there. This book isn't about fixing what's "broken"-it's about integrating the invisible burdens we carry and learning to hold them differently. With compassion and hard-earned insight, Buffin challenges disempowering beliefs, explores what it means to truly heal, and reminds readers that self-compassion and curiosity can open doors to transformation. Whether you're a survivor or someone seeking to understand trauma, this book offers a steady hand and a place to stand.
