You Choose. A Book About Surviving Trauma and Becoming Your Own Support

A new work by the author of popular books “You’re Okay” and “You Can,” voiced by Alina Adler!

Although we can’t choose our childhood, our genetics, or the life trials we face, we can choose how to respond to them. Written by an experienced psychologist and author of two successful books by Alina Adler, this book is aimed at strengthening inner strength to overcome traumatic experiences.

Using examples from stories of different people and descriptions of therapy sessions, the book shows how the past can become a source of pain in the present—and how an experienced psychologist helps clients build a full life while avoiding despair and self-criticism. It also encourages new insights that help solve long-standing problems, understand the causes of emotional discomfort, and find hope for recovery.

The book offers answers to questions such as:

— why sometimes we ignore our feelings and ourselves;

— how to cope with loss and grief gently, for yourself;

— what lies behind the obsessive desire for revenge;

— why we stay in destructive relationships;

— how to overcome feelings of loneliness and sadness.
