Emotional First Aid - Book Review

8/13/2020

 
After listening to a podcast interview with Guy Winch, the author of Emotional First Aid, I ordered and read his book. ​While it does not focus specifically on affair recovery, most of the problems addressed in the book are commonly experienced in the affair healing process. In each chapter, the author (a practicing psychologist) discusses an emotional wound using real-life examples and then offers practical research-based remedies.

Each of these emotional wounds is covered in a chapter of the book: Rejection, Loneliness, Loss & Trauma, Guilt, Rumination, Failure, and Low Self-Esteem. Anyone struggling to heal from wounds of infidelity would benefit from the instruction and remedies presented by the author.

​Leave A Cheater, Gain A Life - Book Review

6/22/2017

 
Book's Author: Tracy Schorn
Amazon Link
Reviewed by Tim Tedder, LMHC, NCC

​UPDATE (7/8/17): I posted an edited version of this review on the book's Amazon listing and, while generally positive, pointed out the disagreements I have with some of the "Chump Lady's" perspectives. The author copied my review on her blog with a personal response that set the tone for the storm of reaction from her online followers.

The angry comments spilled out from her site to this one and then into my personal email with titles like "You should be ashamed of yourself" and "FRAUD!" I soon began filtering posts, not because they disagreed with me (we can learn from that!), but because so many were personal, vicious, and without any interest in actually listening to another point of view.
