Praise for The Trauma Recovery Toolkit

These wonderfully illustrated cards will be tremendously helpful in therapeutic work with trauma survivors. By bringing to life exciting yet complex information about neurobiology and trauma, they offer a compassionate and wise set of resources for exploring and healing from trauma. Highly recommended.

Dr Jacqui Dillon, Independent Trauma Expert, Survivor and Activist

This is a comprehensive compilation of trauma concepts and visual exercises for mental health clients with trauma histories. The beautifully illustrated flash cards provide a creative path beyond the verbal approach and can be used in partnership with professionals or by clients themselves. The visual approach produces many wonderful and apposite metaphors that will resonate with clients and help provide ways forward for people who may have been stuck for years. This is a remarkable resource for the expanding field of trauma treatment.

Dr Marian Liebmann, Art Therapist and Author

This beautifully illustrated toolkit reflects Kim Matias's depth and breadth of knowledge on Trauma Recovery. Her mastery of this subject means that she can explain complex issues clearly. Her engaging writing style and use of rich visual metaphors make this publication extremely accessible [...] this toolkit is a treasure trove of resources for therapists who will find it easy to follow and use. It will be an inspiration for anyone with a personal or professional interest in this issue.

Val Huet, Director of Research and development, BAAT
