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.
