These beliefs would dictate her experiences throughout much of her life.She then describes her journey of healing from trauma and addictions and the related challenges as she sought help in a fragmented system of care that reduced the impact of childhood trauma to clinical terms and one size fits all treatment. Follow Judy's inner journey through the ensuing physical, mental, emotional and spiritual challenges as she discovers healing, growth and a new sense of self.
