Charisma is something that a lot of people don't think about, yet we see it everywhere and often admire it. But how do you gain charisma and more importantly, how do you apply it in your daily life? In Charisma: The Best Tactics to Be More Charismatic, Likable, and to Impress Anyone, you will learn how. Charisma is not about being the loudest or more flamboyant in the room. There is more to it than that. Those that have charisma have more influence, tend to get the better jobs and have better relationships.

Sociometrics offers many small, incremental moments of healing that cumulatively help to peel back the layers of the onion, revealing ever deepening and widening aspects of both the self and the self in relation to others.

Time doesn’t heal trauma — it buries it alive. If you’ve ever felt hypervigilant no matter how safe you are, battled an inner critic that never sleeps, or longed for intimacy yet found it unsafe — you are not broken. These patterns aren’t weakness or flaws. They are survival strategies that once protected you but now keep you trapped. You don’t need more surface fixes — you need a full-system reset. Most recovery approaches treat only one layer.

Do you ever feel like your body’s still in survival mode, even when things are calm? Like you’re exhausted from holding it all together—but have no idea how to let go without falling apart? Maybe you’ve even looked in the mirror and thought, “I don’t recognize myself anymore.” If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and you’re not stuck. Healing doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With the right tools, just a few minutes a day can shift you from chaos to calm, tension to ease, disconnection to safety.

Childhood sexual abuse (or child sexual abuse/CSA) is not only an assault on the body—it is an assault on the mind and on the spirit. It is an insult to the victim’s integrity, her self-esteem, his very being.

It shows you how to apply them to your work in the therapy room, step by step. It provides you with a road map that increases your potency and effectiveness as a therapist.
