Description
A graphic memoir about the power of therapy to heal anxiety and generational trauma. At forty, Sacha Mardou's life seemed perfect: happily married, mother of one, and author of her first book. Yet, she struggled with worsening anxiety and unexpected acne. Desperate for relief, she turns to therapy, confronting a lifetime of family secrets and childhood trauma. In this brave and introspective work, Sacha explores the impact of her upbringing on her present life. With the guidance of her therapist, she uncovers the hidden wounds of her past, including her father's violent relationship with her mother and its lasting effects on their family. As she navigates her therapy sessions, Sacha discovers new modalities for healing, drawing on the work of Bessel Van der Kolk and Richard Schwartz. Through this powerful graphic memoir, Sacha Mardou shares a deeply personal journey of self-discovery and growth.
