Goddexx Tending by Amanda Gibson
A healing centered approach to relationship trauma recovery
Goddexx Tending is a transformative memoir about a therapist's personal experience with Relationship Abuse and Betrayal Trauma.
Amanda shares her pain with honesty, humor, and authenticity. Therapists are real human beings who have stories of resilience. Amanda integrates her 20 years of experience working with trauma survivors in Goddexx Tending. She looks back at the societal and familial forces that shaped her conditioning to think if she "married well" she would be secure and safe in her life. She takes the reader along her journey of healing and shares a framework that helps survivors of relationship abuse learn to trust their inner voice and work through the cycle of harm. Join her in breaking the cycle of victim/perpetrator/survivor to tending to the goddexx within. The healing never stops.
We have to love ourselves in the low moments, but not get stuck there.
