Norma Tracey is the founder and clinical director of Strong Mothers Inc.

This book brings hope as well as inspiration to health workers, social workers, teachers, and therapists alike. It also provides a model for working with indigenous people who have a history of cultural and societal abuse as well as histories of intergenerational trauma. Tracey’s passion for healing is revealed as is her faith in the ability to heal even for the most traumatized and difficult to reach patients. Her work with traumatized mothers and babies as well as fathers and mothers is truly remarkable. Faith in the analytic process is revealed in these stories of broken lives re-claimed. This volume provides a psychoanalytic model for in depth work with trauma survivors. These are those persons who are often forgotten or dismissed as untreatable. Yet treatable they are, and Norma Tracey’s book demonstrates how this might be thought about and accomplished. In addition, Tracey acknowledges the toll paid by health care workers who often feel confused and overwhelmed by the pain and trauma of their patients, and yet they stay steadfast in their commitment to ongoing learning and ongoing change. Her book will aid them.
