Sinossi

Metacomet (1638–1676), also known by his adopted English name King Philip, was chief to the Wampanoag people and the second son of the sachem Massasoit. He became a chief in 1662 when his brother Wamsutta (or King Alexander) died shortly after their father Massasoit. Wamsutta's widow Weetamoo (d. 1676), sunksqua of the Pocasset, was Metacomet's ally and friend for the rest of her life. Metacomet married Weetamoo's younger sister Wootonekanuske. No one knows how many children they had or what happened to them all. Wootonekanuske and one of their sons were sold to slavery in the West Indies following the defeat of the Native Americans in what became known as King Philip's War.

    The relationship between trauma and mental health is becoming better recognized, but survivors and professionals alike remain confused about how best to understand and treat it. In Reclaim, through a series of case studies and expert analysis, Dr. Ahona Guha explores complex traumas, how survivors can recover and heal, and the nature of those who abuse. She shines a light on the "difficult" trauma victims that society often ignores, and tackles vital questions such as, "Why are psychological abuse and coercive control so difficult to spot?" and "Why do some people harm others, and how do we protect ourselves from them?" 
     
     
     
    As a clinical and forensic psychologist, Dr. Guha has had extensive experience in working with those who perpetrate harm—including stalkers, sex offenders, violent offenders, and those who threaten, bully, and harass—and she has a deep understanding of the psychological and social factors that cause people to abuse others. In turn, her clinical work in the trauma treatment field has led her to recognize the enormous impacts of complex trauma, and the failures of systems when working with those who have been victimized. 
     
     
     
    By emphasizing compassion above all, Dr. Guha calls for us to become better informed about perpetrators and the needs of victims, so we might reclaim a safer, healthier society for everyone.

    This book is about understanding how much neurodivergence and masking has unconsciously shaped so many people without them realising. For generations we have not recognised that many people who are highly adapted to a neurotypical world haven't been acknowledged or supported, especially women and girls. It explores the experience of attention divergent and highly sensitive people (often referred to as ADD or ADHD), Autistic people (often referred to as ASD) and people who are both (Dualies), in a non- pathologizing way. It challenges the current use of pathologizing language and explores the intersection of all the other shaping influences on how we make sense of this identity, including trauma, family of origin and overlaps between different types of neurodivergence. It explores the likely evolutionary components of how humans have developed different kinds of brains and attributes and makes suggestions for developing a more inclusive and validating picture of neurodiversity in schools, the workplace, families and friendship groups. Helen draws on her own and her partner's experiences of being neurodivergent, as well as drawing from stories of her friends, family and clients to develop a greater understanding of why it is important to embrace this identity if it applies to you. Helen is a psychologist who has worked with people for forty years. She describes how important it is to realise how masking neurodivergence stops people from realising their full potential, and where embracing it helps personal growth and a positive identity.

    Es posible que conozcas a alguien que está en una relación con alguien que es emocionalmente abusivo, o podrías estar en una relación con alguien así. O tal vez no sabe cómo reconocerlo y tiene curiosidad por saber cómo reconocer las señales. Cualquiera que sea la razón, ha venido a la dirección correcta.Dado que está en todos los medios y las historias horribles resuenan a través de nuestros oídos empáticos, es casi obligatorio que cualquier civil comprensivo en la sociedad comprenda al menos algunos conceptos básicos cuando se trata de abuso sexual. Los hechos están ahí afuera, y realmente le está sucediendo a la gente en secreto y, a veces, sin ocultar nada. En este libro, aprenderá a comprender la realidad de este triste fenómeno en la sociedad.Es posible que algunos de nosotros hayamos pasado por eso y otros lo hayan visto en los hogares de otras personas. La violencia doméstica es un problema grave. Las estadísticas no mienten, pero tampoco son completamente precisas. Revelan a las víctimas que hablan, pero no a las que callan. Si se pregunta qué implica la violencia doméstica, qué hacer y cómo reconocerla, entonces ha venido al lugar correcto.En una parte del libro, hay un estudio, con las cuestiones específicas que se relacionan con las tendencias suicidas. Salen a la luz causas y consecuencias, y se hacen comparaciones entre países, individuos y desencadenantes que llevan a una persona en estado depresivo a contemplar lo impensable.Quizás no uno severo, pero el abuso verbal ocurre todo el tiempo. Cada vez que las personas son malas entre sí, en cierto grado, están abusando de otro con sus palabras. Pueden ser extraños, compañeros de trabajo, jefes, tu cónyuge, tus padres, tu novio o novia, o tus amigos.
