Relational Trauma: The Root of Worthlessness, Shame, and Guilt (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789526570129)

Relational trauma which occurs at an early stage of life significantly impacts a person's self-image and identity. As a result of relational trauma, an individual develops a false self, at the core of which lies a deep unconscious sense of worthlessness, shame, and guilt. Often, people are not fully aware of these feelings because recognizing them is so painful. All people carry scars from relational trauma in one way or another.

Experiences of worthlessness, shame, and guilt affect the lives of many people. Their consequences are visible in daily life, influencing everything from small decisions to the formation of friendships and romantic relationships.
Through vivid client examples, the book explores the origin, consequences, and mechanisms of relational trauma in human life. The book is intended for anyone who wants to enhance their own or their loved ones' well-being and who seeks to understand and examine their experiences of worthlessness, shame, and guilt.
