March Book Pick: Educated by Tara Westover

Join us for March's meeting of the Childhood Trauma Book Club, a low-pressure, trauma-informed group for adults exploring how early experiences shape who we are. You don’t have to finish (or even start) the book to join-read, listen, skim, or simply show up.
Together we reflect on themes like complex trauma, family dynamics, emotional flashbacks, and rewriting your personal narrative in a supportive space.

- In person (SW Houston/Sugar Land) + online options
-$40 per meeting (insurance may cover)
- Open enrollment | spots still available

Come as you are. Heal through stories — both published and your own.

Our staff is ready and excited to attend ‘s online training on Borderline Personality Disorder today. At Solace, we specialize in CPTSD and we often see that BPD symptoms overlap with complex trauma. We’re passionate about continuing to learn, deepening our understanding, and helping destigmatize BPD by viewing it through a trauma informed lens. We’re also grateful for opportunities like this to grow as clinicians.

What’s your favorite therapist reading?

Jenny Liu: As a former medical professional and current counselor, I am exploring the world of healing childhood trauma from the eyes of a pediatrician. May this book offer the insight to instill hope and knowledge in caring for those afflicted by adverse childhood experiences.

Cassidy Macygin: This book has been such an eye-opening resource and has made healing feel more possible. I’ve loved learning more about how Complex PTSD can show up in everyday life, along with practical skills for calming and regulating the nervous system.

Sabita Singh Kamnani: I really enjoyed reading Educated by Tara Westover because it is such a powerful story about personal growth and resilience. It follows her journey of breaking away from a difficult upbringing to find her own voice through education, making it a truly inspiring read for anyone interested in the strength of the human spirit.

Amanda Trost: m rereading the ACA Big Red Book -20 years later. I’ve done the steps, but in a way that was more like just going through the motions. I wasn’t able to take it all.
in yet. I’m absorbing much more now, and as a therapist, I keep noticing how this book/program pulls from so many different therapy concepts and explains complex trauma and dysfunctional family systems in a clear, practical way.

Jared Trost: I’m revisiting Pete Walker’s work by reading his new book “Holistically Treating Complex PTSD” and continuing to deepen my work with complex trauma. Staying connected to what truly supports healing and refining how I show up for clients is an important part of my work.

Zen and Zora enjoying the catio before we take out the door and insulate the window for the winter storm.

For clients with Saturday appointments: as of now we plan to be in the office. If you feel uncomfortable being on the road and want to meet virtually or need to reschedule in order to prep, we are glad to accommodate you.

For those with Monday appointments: we are watching the weather closely and will be in touch..

Our three favorite things. Also things we know quite a bit about. If you’re looking for a therapist with a cozy, cat friendly office and who understands complicated family dynamics, childhood trauma, and complex PTSD, we have openings. Virtual appointments available as well. We take most major insurance plans and have affordable self pay rates.
